I'd have to check the dimensions but maybe you could rig something up so the Cayman could carry a full spare or even just a doughnut, and the jack equipment.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1Original post

Do you guys think it would be safe to assume the Cayman will have the reliability to be a daily driver without the need for a second backup car?

POST 2Original post

Yes. As long as you never need to haul two people in addition to yourself.

POST 3Original post

That was the only complaint my wife gave me, the fact that it is a two seater, I replied it wouldn't matter if it was a one seater since we never use my car and use her SUV all other times.

POST 4Original post

gbn, That is exactly what my wife said! And here again when we go anywhere in town we always take her SUV. I would never consider trying to find safe parking in Waikiki for my Cayman! When we do take my current car BMW I drive my wife crazy because I will walk a mile just to park where no other cars are nex to me. Russ

POST 5Original post

RussK; my wife says the same thing. Although I finally have her trained to look for the 'safe' parking area. But I do that already with any car I drive. Now she just thinks of the good exercise it causes.

POST 6Original post

The old exercise ploy works everytime!! I wil have to remember that Chuck. Russ

POST 7Original post

I sure hope so as mine will replace my Boxster which has been a daily drive! It can be a pain though looking for the safe parking space.

POST 8Original post

I have a little Toyota P/U for surfing and driving to places I would not want to take my Cayman. Besides I need something for my sufboard and I would never put a board on the top of a Cayman. I won't even drive my Bimmer when it is raining, can't stand mud and dirt. Russ

POST 9Original post

For the first time I'm going to use the Porsche as my almost daily driver. I've got a Murano to carry the dogs, big loads & forreal short trips where the engine can't warm up. My wife has her G35 coupe.

POST 10Original post

Think its very safe to assume the Cayman is an excellent daily driver. If you need more seats than maybe not.

POST 11Original post

I suspect mechanically Cayman should be fine as a daily driver, but for me finding the safe parking would be the big issue I hate seeing any damage to my cars, and having to take the car to the dealership is a pain on you know what. One discussion I have not seen yet was on the quality of Porsche dealers - it would be interesting to gauge people feelings - I will post a new topic, so we can get some feedback.

POST 12Original post

Euroboy, I have a real hard time driving my car to a shopping center of even to the market. It is just so much less stressful to take my truck. I am also concerned about the quality of the Porsche customer service and service in general. BMW has always been great, but all that is about to change. Aloha Russ

POST 13Original post

I use my present 911 as a daily driver and am okay with it except when I have to haul stuff. I figure the greater capacity of the Cayman is an improvement over the Carrera .

POST 14Original post

The only reason why I wouldn't use it everyday is due to the lack of a spare tire. The spare tire in my boxster saved my neck twice. As for the reason why my tires were worn down so often, the tire store people stated that I needed to calm down on the throttle when taking those twisty turns. Needless to say, I was having too much fun and ended up going through 4 sets of tires w/ only 30,000 miles.

POST 15Original post

I'd have to check the dimensions but maybe you could rig something up so the Cayman could carry a full spare or even just a doughnut, and the jack equipment. Just a thought.

POST 16Original post

I don't think I have ever had a car that did not have a spare tire. No extra rim, hummm. I guess as long as we don't have a full on blowout or a bad slice the kit should work. Russ

POST 17Original post

Mine will DEFINITELY be my daily driver. If I have to take it where damage could occur, I always have the kids ZX2!!! Of course he will want to take my car then and that will be an emphatic NO. I am hoping that the reliability will be there but it is only a 40mile roundtrip for work and on days off don't go alot of places but of course that could all change....

POST 18Original post

Regarding the issue of a daily driver, I guess I will wait and see before I let go of my sedan. We too take my wife's SUV (RX330) most of the time. Regarding safe parking, I wish I had a dime for all the miles I have logged parking at the extreme ends of parking lots all my life. Losing a fortune like many of us did when the tech bubble broke does not bother me as much as a ding on my car does. Yes, my wife has finally gotten used to walking also. Regarding quality of dealerships, I doubt if any of them are going to come close to the pampering I have gotten used to at Lexus , but then again if you want a Porsche bad enough, you gotta pay the price in more ways than one.

POST 19Original post

I drive about 20,000 miles a year and haven't had a flat (or even a leaker) in probably 25. I say don't sweat it.

POST 20Original post

I think the Cayman has an option for a spare in selected countries. You could order one for your car. If not I'll bet a spare setup from a Boxster S would work.

POST 21Original post

I am not worried about not having a spare either. I have not a had a flat in approx. 10 years of driving. Haven't even had a leaker. And, if worse comes to worse, I'l be on the phone to AAA for a flatbed ride to nearest tire shop.

POST 22Original post

Chuck, We bought a new home in a housing project that has been under construction for the last 3 years, and in that time I have had 5 flat tires ! I hope that is my quota! Aloha Russ
