Ahh, but your signature file says 2007. :-D
Now we have even more similar cars.
Do you like the Audi steering wheel better than the Cayman one? I wish I could take the Audi wheel and put it in the p-car. I think the Audi steering wheel is just about perfect.

Why the Cayman?
It's hard not to sound like a Jackass asking the question?
I bought my 00 C4 3 months ago and it has been in the shop 6 week out of that time. The mech really screwed up putting the new clutch in. I am also having them fix everything that annoys me. The list is long.
I have been using a boxster MY06 for a loaner and find it to be a great car, just not enough power. Was thinking of trading to the Cayman, but I would love to go 01-02 911TT next year if I don't trade.
The wife is going to kill me

evansaero,
If I'm not mistaken, your loaner is probably a base 2.7L and a Tip with skinny 55 series tires?
alex911s,
Congrats and would love to hear a clip of that Tubi even though the 987 exhaust sound is so much better than the 986 series.

hey, i recognize that car, alex.... heehee.
i have to go heard that tubi thing. though as is, i already can't pass sound at laguna.
the str wheel you have in there is the sport str wheel, smaller than standard in diameter, but a tad thicker. i like that more than my S4 str wheel.
there's another cigrette lighter plug thing on the passenger side of the center console, where the outside left knee of your passger will touch. use that for your radar detector cord.
and btw, alex is the FOURTH owner of that car, not third LOL.

ltc, alex and i have the same sales guy at the same dealer.
we dont really like to buy/sell cars.
but this sales person makes it too easy. i can sell and buy in less than 5 min. over the phone. really, i am not kidding. see, it's all his fault.
