2009 Porsche Cayman S PDK (0-60 in 4.5 secs)

Well the official 997s 0-60 from porsche for a non pdk car is 4.5 secs, 4.3 maybe?

LOL! So the 09s croc is $14k cheaper than the current one?

Nice read thanks. Ive been saying this fact on both boards to some that think the 370z will hang with the 09 Cayman S. Not gonna happen. This advantage to 60mph will increase as speeds go up. Plus the lighter weight of the 09 CS will make it an uphill battle for the 370z to handle on track. 171mph top speed too. Whats the 370z claimed top speed?

Would be nice to see Nissan give the Z the DCT and really give Porsche heartburn. Im a 6 speed kinda guy though but it would be astounding to have a DCT 370z at under 40k. What would you buy a 60-70k Cayman S for, other than prestige, if you had a DCT 370z available?
