A Used Porsche Cayman is Actually a Great Daily Driver - Here's Why 

Hey Chris, I'm also in Houston and plan on picking up one of these. Did you ever get one, and if so, how do you like yours?

Where do you live, cuz my neighbor has a slk and now he recently got a cayman

Cayman would for sure be an upgrade from that car

MIREX finance it

would you consider it kind of noisy at all??

No

IMS is a potential issue in any 987 pre-2009 when they removed the intermediate shaft from the engine completely.

Adam Goatfish head straight west toward Galena, or go for Benton Harbor, MI. Not real twisties around though within the hour.

Blackjack (name of the road) out near Galena is a great choice. If you go there, be sure to check out The Galena Canning Company and taste test all the things lol

Dumy Jobby nope :/ most Porsche’s don’t for some dumb reason, some offered it as an option

it's a factory option on the 2013+ models.. Porsche Torque Vectoring (PTV), which is a mechanical locking diff

Stephan Wessels ..yeSsss, fixitasap

I know right can't stop looking at it.

Haha exactly my thoughts 😂 lovely car though!

Kayhan he doesn’t seem to actually respond to people, like at all. I’m not sure to what degree he takes RU-vid seriously/as a priority or potentially just got a lot of hate or something and said screw it im not paying attention to them at all, which wouldn’t be surprising on RU-vid given some people on here. Then again some people that make videos are excessively sensitive and take everything as “hate”. My criticism of his lack of participation in the comments section is just that, criticism, nothing more. He doesn’t strike me as the super sensitive type though so guessing he just ain’t into interacting with viewers.

Fee Nicks I wish I could be more responsive but I have a lot going on these days so I respond when I have time, and typically only to the first few days/weeks of comments on a given video. But yeah if the comment section gets too negative I just ignore it. I love RU-vid but it’s mostly for the fun of it so I try to stick to the parts of it that are enjoyable. Unfortunately that means it’s not worth my time to sift through the bad stuff to find the good. Thanks for watching!

As a daily driver, definitely a Cayman. As a purely weekend car, not sure! I’d have to drive an Elise and get back to you.

Mechonomist be liberal with the block button and I think you can even filter out certain words from ever showing to you in your comments (derogatory/hateful stuff for example). I know lots of people who’ve found it to be much more tolerable/enjoyable without the children and man children, I just got into it with someone on your base cayman video who wound up telling me “real Porsche purists would understand the 911 has to/should be the higher performer and maybe I should go buy a high horsepower American car like a corvette if I want a higher hp cayman, at least I could afford a corvette since I clearly don’t have 911 money”. He truly didn’t see the hypocrisy or that he’d just become the guy who tells cayman owners to go buy a mustang if they want to add power to their cayman. Anyhow I get it 100%. At least until/unless youtube can replace a job for you, your priorities as they are are clearly properly arranged.

I meant to tell you to go ask eatSleepDrive, he’s driving a 997 he sold an Elise for, pretty sure he’s driven caymans as well.

ghey

Thought that was s boxter thing. Cayman also? Oh well guess I’ll get a freakin mustang.

Are you in the Houston area?

@@Mechonomist I am in Houston (Galleria) and currently looking at a couple cayman s to buy

@@Mechonomist yes sir, westchase area

Lol thanks for catching that 😂

Henrik H Koch But he did.

Alejandro Gutierrz about 5’7”.

even a "normal" non-s cayman is better than the rf miata... unless you like the idea of having a covertible

VotreCauchemar, why ? Both have their perks

Because I can’t afford both

How about a Porsche 911 (997) instead. Rear jump seats come in handy, plus it looks way better.

Like always they have added hp to the 2019 rf so of course that’s what we want. The new Rf all in is realistically about 33 k after dealing. But you can rest assured at 150 k of almost trouble free miles.

vwsaiphone wtf

Bryan Olvera what confuses you here

Fee Nicks this man saying some hella gay shit

Bryan Olvera why is that confusing? He’s probably ...wait for it...gay

Bryan Olvera ..........hahahajahahahahahahahajajajajahajaajjaahhalmaojajajajajajajajaj

I lived 2 years in Canada, and it is like the same, In Canada, there is snow like crazy everywhere, and there is not a single law that obligates people to use snow tires, so basically, many drivers use all-season tires even being super dangerous.

14:29 jajajajajajaj
