I sold my 911 to buy my first Cayman, a base 987.2. Great car. In a 981 GTS now and it’s my keeper. It does everything well.

Would love a GTS I bet they are a special car. 👍👍

I think a lot of other brands of luxury cars have club members that just want to flex, Porsche are drivers cars, I think they attract driving enthusiasts.

Gas station ?? Come on mate Newcastle is still in the north east of England the last time I checked !

I especially agree with your comments about making the car your own. I love that there are so many ways to do that. I own a 2015 Boxster GTS. As you said, it gets lots of looks and compliments, but when I park it next to 911s it magically disappears. It bothered me at first, but I’m good with it now. It reappears when I start the engine and rev it a little!

Nice video! 981 or 987, which one is more reliable? Which one would you recommend as a daily driver?

@alsatch_

981 is more reliable, and would definitely choose that as a daily driver between the two 👍

£9K of mods and no GTS tail lights. They're a must have especially on a white/black car. Loved my 981S.

Its on the list. I called the dealer and they were on back order, and couldn't get any on the used market at the time of looking. Hopefully pick up a set soon.

Thanks for the video. Which, for you, is the better drive? Your 981 or your old 987?

Thanks Satch. I've a practical question about the 981/718s. I'm 6'2, how are they for taller people? Still comfortable on longer drives?

I’m 6’2 had a 981 CS with comfort seats and current 981 GT4 with 918 buckets. More than enough room, 34” leg and the seats are well off fully back on the runners. Colchester to Cornwall in the 981 was no problems at all and I’m someone who has a prolapsed disc and a back op.

If you get good mpg you'll want to drive it more. It may not be reason to but a sports car but there is something really satisfying about getting great performance and good fuel consumption. The Cayman does it with a slippery shape and tall 6th gear.

Off the top of my head I think they are 15MM on the rear and 7mm on the front. Check my channel for a video on the mods on this car (the most recent one) as it mentions the sizes in that video. Cheers 👍

Great video as always Al.
