Porsche Cayman Convertible

[Spastik_Roach]

Today Porsche announced a new model, the Cayman convertible. Despite it looking exactly like the Cayman, but without a roof, it doesn't share a single panel with its roofed counterpart, and weighs less thanks to a carbonglassminium hood. Porsche have denied that its "just a Boxster with a different ****ing badge". It will also have a selef1manuautiptronicspeed 11 speed paddle shift gearbox, with over ride 3 speed manual mode, and incorparate SHITE (Safety Handling intelligent traction electronics) PMS (Porsche Management System) and SPASMS (Special protection and stability mangement system).

It will go on sale in Spring 2006, for $76,061US.

I wish this were a joke. I want to take over Porsche and kick all there arses. They are just rereleasing the same cars with the same names and designs and EVERYTHING. Can't you do SOMETHING original Porsche?

Now, that's useless, many people can't tell tell the difference between that and Boxster, just different rims and exhausts maybe.

what's wrong with that. they've been doing it for the whole production line since day one, and imho, its worked out real well. i mean if it works for them, then more power right...
ne ways...
on the subject of the cayman convertible, the car looks good. but, "selef1manuautiptronicspeed 11 speed paddle shift gearbox, with over ride 3 speed manual mode", 11 speed, wow , wonder what gave them that idea. can someone maybe explain to me how that works.

!!!!!!!!!!!!

Do you idiots mean to tell me that this didn't immediately strike you as a joke??

Damn, kids, you need to get out.

On the other hand, I found this post quite funny. Sorry, Spastik, that it was wasted on people with no sense of humour.

Spastik, that was great. You should do this more often, and for the guys that posted early.. you just made it funnier, well done.

Very Porschesque quote there. Can totally imagine that in a strong German accent.
