bluelines:

The manual gearbox is the single feature which so far really sticks out. The R is not going to be special because there is no rear wing and has Exclusive Dept seat inlays.

I would have paid up to 180k for a GT3 without rear wing and with rear seats. Actually, before I got my 991 Turbo S, I asked if it is doable (GT3 without rear wing and with rear seats) but all my sources said impossible. Not even Exclusive department would pick up such a project because it was one of the "blacklisted" ones (meaning: already "prohibited" by the upper management). 

So what is so special about a Cayman with Carrera S engine and a rear wing? Smiley Much less special than a 911 R I can tell you for sure. Smiley While the Cayman got most tech from a 911 Carrera road car, the 911 R gets most tech from a GT car. See?!  Smiley
