However, a model like the Cayman S, which is much more of a elemental car, the purer the better. It should be available with completely defeatable ESP and a proper manual, so you can slip the clutch in needed, engage at higher RPM for a bit of wheelspin, etc and basically have more control than even the best SMGs can offer. Plus, it'll give those with a well-trained right arm to stay busy.
    Actually I'd love if Porsche offered a stripped out base Cayman, a sort of everyday-capable Lotus Exige...

    Rachel Stevens? Where did you ever get that idea from??

    These pics are too cool dude, thanks again. By the way, the electric spoiler doesnt seem to raise much does it? Still, only fault Id make with the car would be that the exhaust pipes need to be a bit chunkier, otherwise pure unadulterated cool.

    Last ones. Time to get started on that GT3
    BTW I agree about the exhausts, quad pipes would have really swung me to loving this car. I've been staring at and resizing the images for a while...I'm starting to like it, but only in that blue so far. I'd prefer different wheels too.
