I've been contemplating trading my M2C in for something else and the Porsche Cayman was one of my options, but I'm all over the place. One day I want to trade it...another day I just want to keep it.
Reasons to trade:
- the crank hub ticking time bomb freaks me out (I'm on Stage 1 BM3, so I think my warranty is done)
- the poor oil cooler location
- doesn't look sporty enough stock; it's missing "something"
- doesn't sound all that great stock
- about to have our first baby, but the wife has an X5, so that's not a biggie
Cars I've considered...
- 2016 Cayman GT4; I test drove this, but was disappointed with the power...but I think it's because I'm just so used to the boost feeling, so that's not fair. I loved everything else about it though...suspension, the way the shifter feels, the looks
- 2017/2018 M3 ZCP; it looks better than M2C, 4 doors (baby coming), I would probably get a DCT this time around as I'm downsizing to 2 cars (the Jeep's lease is up in March), but I would still have the S55 concerns
- 2017/2018 Guilia Quad; need to do more research b/c I assumed they were AWD, but I'm only finding RWD on Cars.com
- 2020 Rubicon; I've had 3 Jeeps already, so I'm kind of getting tired of them, but the JL model is so much nicer than my JK
- 1992-2005 NSX; this was my childhood dream car, but it's just so expensive for what it is power/tech wise...plus I'm not mechanical so the upkeep of an old car scares me off
- 2012-2014 GTR; it's a monster, but it's just so big
- 2012ish R8 v10; need to do more research
- 2020 Telluride; it's a big bang for the bucks vehicle, but...it's a KIA! haha
- 2020 4runner TRD PRO; I love the way it looks, but it's so dated...no LED option, 5 speed tranny, old interior tech
- 2020 CRV; trying to be sensible, but IDK
- 2020 RAV4; trying to be sensible, but IDK
- 2020 Highlander; trying to be sensible, but IDK
I know I know...I'm all over the place. I'm really hesitant to spend more than what my M2C is worth (53k - 55k) though because I really don't want to pay the ridiculous personal property tax (VA) out of spite, so that eliminates half those cars, but I may give in and go YOLO...who knows? 1st world problems!
