How did it go with with the wife? :-)
More seriously, what’s your take on the Cayman vs your Nismo? Curious to hear other people’s thoughts.
Further update on my situation:
On Wednesday went to a Porsche Experience event at a local race track, was invited by the dealer. Unfortunately all they had were 991.2 and brand new 992 911s to throw around the track—what a disappointment :bowrofl In all honesty though the things are absolutely visceral! Just sick sick cars! Unfortunately this did nothing for me as even though it made me consider a 911 for a few minutes, I’m really not in the market for that car—for what and especially how much I intend to use the car, there’s really no reason to pick a much more expensive 911.
This weekend the dealer gave me a brand new 718 Cayman S (unfortunately PDK but it doesn’t really matter for this exercise) to drive around. Had it all day yesterday, drove a lot without actually going anywhere on some nice backroads not too far from where I live. Plan on doing some more driving and some normal driving around town running some errands today. All I can say is that the car is properly quick! It is also a great handling car. Also pretty damn loud actually, like all the time. I’ll have an update tonight or tomorrow after I drop it off.
