I have spent a great time driving my 911, so in order to become faster around Sebring (per Pedro), I am building a new Cayman S. As soon as the dealer get an allocation, I will be ordering a car. (:D

My go fast option are: Porsche Torque Vectoring (PTV), Poppelkupplung (PDK), Sport Chrono Package, Sport Suspension, Sport Seats Plus, and
Sport Design Steering Wheel.

BTW: This will be my very first car with an automatic tranny.[/quote]

Sounds like a terrific setup Harvey. But if you're going to go with the automatic, you're going to have to get Pedro's grandson to teach you how to say Porsche Doppelkuppliung properly. Right Pedro? ;)

You will love the Sport Suspension and the Sports Seats Plus to hold you in place while your taking the corners faster than what you're used to now.

If I might make one suggestion. If you get the chance before you order it, take a Cayman with PDK for a test drive (I know twisties are hard to come by in Florida - maybe some on-off ramps on I-75?) and see how you like it. I know it's a fantastic piece of engineering, but I just didn't feel connected to the car when I drove the Cayman with PDK on the track. Make sure it's what you really want.
