    Re: Porsche Cayman R - now official

    Does anyone actually NOT take the aircon?  

    Surely unless you're ONLY going to use the car as a race car, it makes no sense to get to the shops 3 seconds quicker in a cool car only to smell like a hobo..?

    Same with the audio option...

    Yeah, I don't know who wouldn't get air con, but still, the fact that the car comes without it is a very nice gesture from Porsche showing they're one of the very few manufactures left who can still build a no frills sports car.

    Don't forget, air conditioning was optional on the Carrera GT too (though only like 3 cars made it out of the factory without it)!

    Must be an all new engine in the Cayman R ..."3.4 litre straight six" and the other moron needs to learn that it's "Por - Sche" not "Porsh". Smiley

    If they can't even get basic facts right, I shan't bother buyng the magazine!

    Thanks for posting though! Smiley
