I dunno, but I was merging on the interstate where the average speed in the morning is about 75. I did what most guys would do. I gave it enough gas to blend in while others try tomerge at around 40mph(I don't understand why?). Anyway, I saw a spot in the fast lane and took it when this Porsche gets in the fast lane and slows down beside this semi. Not only was he slowing me down, which is what he wanted, i'm sure, but he slows the traffic down behind me too. Eventually, he gets over and I let the pipes growl in his ear and then I get in front of him and slow down. He didn't like that so he got into the next lane and it was on. I downshifted and all I know is that I was pulling a little. It frustrates me because I don't know what year it was. It was a Caymen something. It didn't look like a seriously high end Porsche, but itdidn't look to shabby either.Maybe he was afraid of the gas. Maybe he just got spanked, I dunno, but it was fun for me.

 

hahaha, yea you would have killed him, especially from a roll. The Cayman S, which is what I think you ran into, is the most recent release from porsche. However they are far from the high end porsches. They have 300bhp, and of course great suspension, not sure about the torque, but assuming it was stock I dont think you would have much of a problem with this car

 

i'd say take it as a kill.....

 

+1
And yea the new cayman S is a poor excuse of a porshe to me. Its a nice car, and its quick. But its not impressive

 

I agree it is a very modest example of porsche. They do come with built in dash 0-60 and quarter mile calculators, which I thought was pretty cool, and they are only around 65k so atleast porsche isnt trying to make it more then it is. Still way better then a boxster IMO.

 

Well take the kill as you've beaten a car that was 2 times the cost of yours...they have a great top-end cause of aerodynamics and gearing but they are def. made for the corners...good kill....i've ran into a few of them and all of the owners have never tried to run me...good to see that someone beats on those cars every once in a while...

 

the cayman is just a hardtop boxster.

 

Actually it has about 40 more hp and a much better suspension package. It may look somewhat similiar but it isnt really.

 

Cayman is Boxster's platform and much of it's sheetmetal w/ more powerful engine, better suspension, and higher price tag. I think tey're badass, but I love Porsche, so I'm prob a little biased. Stock for stock though, a Cayman S would kill a GT. They run low 13's in the quarter. 0-60 is like 4.8-4.9. A base Cayman is considerablly slower, though, so if it wasn't an S, you should def pull. Either way, sounds like anice kill.

 

Hmmm. Thanks, but low thirteens is attainable stock for us too[8D]. Not common, but very attainable.
