I agree, both great cars but for comepletely different target markets. I would consider the BMW as a second daily driver though.

 

a porsche is a porsche.....

 

Some would argue whether a base Cayman is in fact a Porsche, including a witty employee I met in Stuttgart.

135 > Cayman, 135i ~ Cayman S

I'll let you guys know how it drives if it ever makes the swim over.

 

Whoever said that is not very intelligent. The fact of the matter is that a base Cayman can hang with if not beat a 993 around the track(if thats what you drive)

Here are some more "fake" Porsches.......

924/44/68, 928, 914, 912, early 911s get my point. Ignorant comment. Whats that guy do sweep the floors there

I wouldnt think twice to decide on an Cayman over a 135 even though I love the 135. Your choosing sports car over sport saloon.

 

I like the Cayman better

 

Porsche will always make you feel more special and it keeps the value better.

 

What do you mean?

My 986 (2001) is now barely worth USD 10k?

911s retain their value (with a few exceptions - 996s)... the other models just drop like there is no tomorrow.

 

still will be heavier than the cayman!
