Don't care for the facelift, but it's still a beautiful car. I think it's much better proportioned than the 911 which I've never found particularly aesthetically pleasing. In fact, back when I first started contemplating getting a new car the Cayman was top of the list. Took a test drive, though, and the complete lack of power (it was not the S) was really disappointing. My friend and I took it out and it just felt slow compared to both my lowly WRX and his 350Z. The rest of the package, as nice as it was, just couldn't offset that profound (for me) problem.

I wanted to try to the S, though I didn't think the minor HP upgrade would make a huge difference plus the guys at the Porsche dealership were real dicks.

This is a stunning car, though. It's definitely under consideration once my lease on the M3 is up (which I may still end up buying it out if I am as enamored of it as I currently am).
