Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

In addition, depending on my relationship with the person asking me, I might say 'If you have to ask me what a Cayman S is, you probably need to read a test drive review or two to fully understand'.

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.

10 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1Original post

Ok, I know I will hear a lot of 'It has its own identity... blah blah blah'. But, what do use to describe it to the lay person who knows only of the Carrera and the Boxster. My BMW service adviser asked me if the Cayman S was an SUV?/fckeditor/editor/images/smiley/MWPX/wall.gif Should I just say 'Boxster coupe'? *puts flame suit on* or should I say 'Poor man's Carrera' *puts flame suit on*?

POST 4Original post

How about simply 2 seat full-on sports car from Porsche?

POST 5Original post

How about: An all new car from Porsche that is assembled and designed using parts from the Boxter bin, the 911 bin, and its own new bin. It is less powerful than the 911, but it handles better and arguably more fun to drive. Comes in second to the 911 in a drag race, but ahead in a track race where driving skills and conrnering are part of the equation. In addition, depending on my relationship with the person asking me, I might say 'If you have to ask me what a Cayman S is, you probably need to read a test drive review or two to fully understand'. And if I was in a politically incorrect mood I might say: Its a new car from Porsche that many 911 owners would rather own and drive if they could get past their egos'.

POST 6Original post

I say it's a new 2-seater, mid-engine that's like a morph between a 911 and a Boxster.

POST 7Original post

Autocar called it the "911 lovers' non-911" - I supposed that would describe me. They also call it the best sub 50K (pound sterling) sports car out there. Edited by - K-Man-sculpture.net on 01/01/2006 11:32:02 AM

POST 8Original post

I suppose I should add that I could afford a 911 if I decided to, but I prefer the new Cayman S for many reasons.

POST 9Original post

The Cayman S to me is strong and powerful looking, more so than the 911. It kind of reminds me of theseolympic speed skaters who have overdeveloped hips and thighs. I see the rear hips of the Cayman as muscle, strength and power. FWIW Russ

POST 10Original post

You know those hips are right where the power is - with the rear mid-engine and the rear wheel drive that pushes it forward. So it does look correct with that in mind. Life is good.
