JP375 is an unknown quantity at this point
Porsche Cayman S

Looks like Porsche is releasing a new model soon. As they say,"there is no substitute". http://www3.us.porsche.com/cayman/pcna.asp
I'm guessing this is the "boxster coupe" that has been rumored for some time. Anybody have any further info?

I've heard of this. I believe it will be based on the Boxster. I have no further information. If it is a coupe, that would be extremely interesting, but it is also priced between the 911 and the Boxster, so it should be better than a Boxster. Yeah, this is the Boxster coupe.

Morpheus: Unfortunately, no one can be told what the Cayman S is. You have to see it for yourself.

it really will be interesting to see the numbers for that thing. i mean you can do quite a bit w/ the boxster to boost performance, and you still have the drop top roadster. but w/ this, its a hardtop.

i think its going to be a tough sell. especially if its more expensive than the boxster, since its getting positioned as being between the boxster and 911. i mean why would you want to get a hardtop for more $$ if you can get a convertible for less? unless the performance will be substantially more, but there really isnt much room w/o getting into either the boxster or 911 territory. theres only 40hp between the boxster and the s, and then 40hp between the boxster s and the 911.

im predicting 300hp for around $55-60k. i dont really see this thing selling too well though. theres no market for it.

I think it's for people who think a Boxster is too small and a 911 is too expensive. At least that's why I'd buy it.

The difference between the drop top and the solid top is simply rigidity. Also, soft tops tend to be slightly heavier than fixed roofs.
