Wifes new racecar.

[blk03stang]

I bought my wife a 2012 Cayman R. Pretty cool little car! This is her 2nd "toy". About 3 years ago she had LS2 c6, she loved it but did not like getting caught in the rain and it was her only car. Now she has a daily so this will be a weekend car for her. She is in LOVE with it..... I've created a monster!

very nice! I got to ride around the road coarse at Daytona International Speedway in one of those (not sure if it was the same model year) on some R compounds and it was an absolute blast

sweet ass car. hate the color though.

 

[WireEater]

Well.. since you already have a wife... do you need a husband?

That color and the fact it transfers over to interior surfaces is atrocious. Looks like you murdered Kermit the Frog.

Other than that, pretty badass.

Right?

They're fun cars, but do yourself a huge favor and get a good extended warranty. That was a lifesaver with my dads 911.

 

[whitevenum]

You sir are a good husband! Cool car

Nice car! The R is the only model that has aged well compared to the new 981 Cayman. the rest just look old. Hope your taking it to HPDE events. That is NOT a car that is meant to be a garage queen!

 

[Zemedici]

oh its my favorite color! Porsche's newest color

Wasabi Poop Green

amazing!!! looks great and is there a big difference between the Cayman and Cayman r? i love you zr1 btw, what kinda go fast mods we talkin?

 

[04svtterm]

very nice!!! They are some fun little cars!

my wife is the same way. She argues with me about getting "practical" vehicles when i was looking to buy the GTR, but after i got it. She drives it more then i do. LOL. She's been wanting a to swap out the 7 series for a bmw m6 gran coupe. Might be our next move end of this year/jan next year.

Is anyone interested in adopting a young engineer?

I think I'll be alright it still has a lot of the factory bumper to bumper warranty remaining.

I try!

Def will not be a garage queen, however not sure if I can talk to the wifey into tracking her new toy (even though that's what it's built for!).

amazing!!! looks great and is there a big difference between the Cayman and Cayman r? i love you zr1 btw, what kinda go fast mods we talkin?

I am still learning a lot with the Cayman's. I do know the R has a curb weight of under 3000lbs, 330HP, 0-60 4.3 . So it is quicker than the S from what I understand but I still have a lot to learn with it. My zr1 is getting a ported blower, ported snout, ported t/b, intake, pulley, headers, injectors, flex fuel, e85, tune. Should run well!

LOL! That's awesome man!
