Default My First Porsche Cayman or Porsche for that Matter

A couple months ago I was finally in a position to drive a car that I wanted to drive, and not a car I had to drive. So I researched for a some time before hand, then asked questions on here. This forum along with my local PCA club were great sources of knowledge.

I ended up going with an 2008 Cayman S and I can now see why people love these cars so much. I look forward to driving this any chance I get. This is my daily commuter and its such a joy.

Having this car got me more and more interested in the car scene. I decided to start a YouTube channel where, I am documenting my experience or lack there of with my car and things that I decide to do to it.

For anyone that wants to have a laugh at an inexperienced Porsche Owner or wants to learn to do certain small modifications to their own Cayman, please feel free to check out my channel! Feed back is always welcome!

If you do go with the clear engine cover I would be curious to know how much more engine noise is in the cabin. Looking forward to seeing it when done.

Yeah for sure man, its on my to do list, but I gotta change a couple things before that (exhaust, shifter ****, shift kit possibly). Either tomorrow or Monday I am posting a video showing how I changed the stock shifter, to the Rennline Aluminum Shift ****.

Here is the video of my Rennline aluminum shift ****. There were no videos on youtube on how to do this so I just used so instructional forum post. Be easy on me guys, my goal isn't to be a perfect tutorial more of how it can be fun and most people can do it.

Awesome, which shift **** are you going with? Took me a while to decide. Planning my next mods now, releasing a video tomorrow morning to hopefully have some people chime on in on which I should do
