This is the car I want if my wife approved it. Nice car and handle extremely well. Enjoy your new ride.

Congratulations for picking an awesome car! Is it manual or PDK? And tell me that it does have the LSD option...

Don't forget to write some driving impressions compared to the 135i

Is that red or coral?

How is the room in side a Caymen compared to the 1 series coupe?

Funny my dad is buying a Cayman while I am buying a 135i even after i showed him this video

(Part 1)

BForbes · 06-23-2009, 05:35 PM

Farewell man. The Cayman S is a fantastic car. You just allowed someone unable to purchase a brand-new 135i a great opportunity.

DVDA · 06-23-2009, 06:10 PM

jeremyc74 · 06-23-2009, 09:35 PM

Congrats. I test drove one, and decided it wasn't fast enough for the money, but it's a nice car. Enjoy.

That test should have been between a Cayman S and the 135 IMO, the 2.7 Cayman is 50+ BHP down on a 135

BMW86 · 06-24-2009, 03:39 AM

Congrats mate. I saw one of these in black the other day. Amazing looking car.

Harry135 · 06-24-2009, 05:16 AM

Nice one mate...enjoy it!

The sound they make is awesome
