Well I was originally looking at 996's but I think the RMS-IMS issues and the general cost of maintenance has steered me away from them. I didn't want to go with the Boxster because I already have a soft top--4door Wrangler. So with that said, I started to look at the Caymans. I see you post over in Planet Porsche too. I always do my homework first (that's half the fun), so now I'm researching the Caymans. I haven't found any fatal flaws in them yet. Thanks for replying, John

No my car wasn't at Advanced, I take my car to CIM Motorport in Central Valley. That picture is from a place in Tennesse call tail of the dragon. It has 311 turns in 11 miles though the Smoky Mtns. What Porsche are you looking for?
