Disagree. Better wheels, more rubber on the ground, bigger brakes....what's not necessary about that. It's a sports car, it needs all these attributes and more really.

Sure you can spend another $8,000 on a set of new rims and tires, for what ?? That's not necessary.

Brembo brakes - another $4,000 That's questionable.

Change out the LSD - a couple of thousand with labour.

Well while I'm in there might as well get a better clutch - $4,000

Exhaust, DP, Remap - $ 3,000

You can try and void your warranty many times over as you try and rebuild the car. That's really not necessary.

It's a great car, no complaints, SPORT is a MUST.

You know I have to laugh as I write this. Some guys get fully loaded Z's spend another $20,000 + re-outfitting the vehicle, just to put them in the ball park of a Porsche. BUY A PORSCHE...

Oh ! how much I would love to have a Cayman S maybe even a new Boxster.

Oh well, to each his own.

Cheers,
