    Sports exhaust

    I liked the sound of the cayman when I went for a test drive, a serious drive , but I think it would sound even better with a spots exhaust. Has anyone heard anything about when the sports exhaust (XLF) will be available for the cayman?

    Re: Sports exhaust

    My understanding is that the US exhaust system is more sporty (louder), as it doesn't have to meet the more stringent EU noise limitation requirements.

    Re: Sports exhaust

    Mine is pretty loud for a stock factory exhaust.

    Glad to see someone from Bahrain her too . I have tried the black demo Cayman at the dealer. Have you tried it? How did it compare to yours? I thought it might have sounded a bit quieter than others experience cause the car had barely 400km when I tried it, plus it was a tip. which would make it sound less noisy at lower revs and slow driving.

    Re: Sports exhaust

    Pleased to see someone from Bahrain other than myself here.:)

    I did try it when they first got it. It must have had around 100 kilometers when I drove it so I was pretty gentle with it.

    As I said earlier, I was surprised that it's much more vocal than any stock Porsche I had before.
    Mine, actually my wife's is also a tiptronic but it has PASM+Sport Chrono so it drives a bit different as well as looking a bit better due to the -10mm lower ride height.

    It's still being run-in so no adventures beyond 4000rpm's for now but it begs to be revved. I take it you have a 6 speed on order. Seal Grey/Terracota perhaps?

    Thanks for the feedback. Mine actually is seal/cocoa. I got all the goodies (PASM, sport chrono, short shifter, etc), so I'm expecting much better experience from mine compared to the demo unit. It will hopefully reach here by mid Feb or later. Cant wait

    We will most probably bump into each other sometime soon. Oh, by the way are you a member of the P club. I'm looking forward to join soon.

    Silver and Cocoa great combination
