Hi,
This is just a quick Hello Everyone post.

I am now a proud owner of a Cayman base finished in atlas grey (stone grey interior) with short list of extras: Sport seats, 18” Cayman S alloy wheels, Climate control, Sony XNV-L77BT navigation, Porsche Design tail lights.

It was a private sell but I went to the JZM guys for the PPI and will service this car with them in the future. I have also completed oil and filters change strait away.
I know that this is 2.7 and feels almost slower than my other Audi A3 3.2 in the day to day driving... but and this is a BIG but – the handling is just amazing, steering, feel, fun. I am in love and looking to upgrade to next gen in the future smile

Regards

Welcome to Pork ownership. As you have already hinted at, there is a lot more to Cayman ownership than outright performance.

Welcome and congratulations - you have a superb car there.

As Trev says, Porsche isn't just about out-right pace, but balance, feedback and *that* feeling only a Porsche seems to engender in you.

I have to say the Porsche part of PH has been enormously educating, very friendly and very very helpful to me over the last 6 months or so.

Thanks guys smile

This place is so informative: I did a lot of reading here regarding typical Porsche stuff (dead battery and stuck key etc.) before I have decided to buy this car.

I will have some questions soon for sure...

Welcome! Well I must agree the cayman is a fine car indeed. Had a go in a Gen II 2.9 at Thruxton in the summer and its quite a car. Very responsive throttle and didnt take much to get into triple figures, I was carrying 110mph through one of the (vague) corners!

Anyhoo welcome (again) :P
