With skidpad numbers of 0.99 (Motortrend), 0.97 (C&D), & 0.97 (R&T) it will be as fast and possibly faster around a track. The same goes for straight line performance--both cars will be within 4.7 - 5.0 secs to 60 between the various car mag reviews. I don't know about you, but I would be pissed off if I spent well over 60k for a Cayman S and be basically on par with the performance of a 30k sports car. And 60k for a Cayman S is the starting price--it can easily get into the 70k-80k range after Porsche options you to death--most of which you will want to have. |

 And yes if I were a Cayman S driver I would severely hate that I got beat by a Catfish I think the Cayman line is overpriced by about 10k. Endgame I think you are mistaking my words as some kind of slight to the 370z thats why you are telling me about the budjet and what Nissan has accomplished. You are preaching to the chior on that one Believe me I know what Nissan has given us but the target has moved with the help of 320hp and a trick gearbox. Kinda changes the equation just a tad but not the accomplishment or value of the 370z. Trust me I love the car just being objective.
