Default Not a 928, a 2006 Cayman S

Not sure how to say this but I have added another Porsche to the stable. Not a 928, but a 2006 Cayman S. Here is a pic with the 78 track 928 in the foreground. The plan is to turn the 987 into a "Targa" style rally car. Remove interior, add CAMS compliant roll cage, respray interior and exterior white, put basic interior back in and go racing.

I will post progress over on the Cayman forum.

Sounds like a plan. 6 Speed-I think it's a year early for PDK, no?

3 years as it turns out. PDK showed up in '09. Could be Tip (hopefully not).

You can never have too many cars, track cars, or garage space ... nice

Thanks Guys, only the 928 and the Cayman are mine. The workshop in the photo is East Coast Suspensions, only 2 spots at home, one for the S4 and the other for the family wagon. The Cayman gearbox is the Tiptronic, it will be an interesting project to collect the bits and do the conversion to a manual in 2015.
