Default super cheap? so why don't you buy one then...

I see nothing cheap about them... and all the decently priced used ones I see are missing basic options you should find in a $60k + car like xenons / Nav / etc..

Caymans need another 100HP. They're slow.

Default Everything seems slow to you...

If you look at the price point of every one of Porsche's sports cars.. they fit in perfectly from a marketing standpoint in terms of power / performance stats etc.

Boxster S 276 Cayman S 295 Carrera 325 Carrera S 355 etc. makes sense to me...

Default they might fit in marketing wise....but are still slow and give many of their respective owners

the false sense that they are actually fast on the road.....when they are not

A Cayman S tried to outaccelerate me last month at this 2 into 1 lane merger right after a light. I lay the hammer down after he made a 1+ car jump. He was toast and wouldn't even look over at the next light further down the road (i was making a left).

They really need another 100 HP........at least
