Impressions:

Car was blood red with black 20" TechArt wheels. Chassis was pretty solid and the motor was torquey. It sounded like a huge vacuum cleaner with the motor right behind the seats. It was pretty quick. Felt like a 240sx with an s14 sr boosting ~12 lbs. but with a lot more torque and not as free revving. It had the ~$1100 leather dash option. Interior felt plasticky.

IMO the fun could be bought for much less and isn't worth the $70k that my friend payed for it. That's not including the paranoia of driving a new blood red Porsche on the streets. Reminded me of when I had my s14 haha

Anyway, feel free to post any comments from similar experiences.

Edit My bad it's spelled Cayman
