I am glad I waited out for the one I got (.2 manual) and didn't compromise. We put another 500miles on it this weekend (up to almost 16k now). It really is a great all around car. Feels so good driving it, can be a comfy gt car or dig in and make you giggle around a corner or revving through 2nd gear. You can catch some lag if you lug down 2nd and catch it off guard, but it has an appropriate amount of down low torques and feels like an N/A engine when it is pulling up in revs. That's where it really shines compared to the bmw turbos, it doesn't fall flat on its face 1000rpm before redline, it just keeps screaming.

Alan, you should ditch the cayman and the .1 and get that night blue 2017 s convertible I posted above. It's a great build.
I upgraded my tweeters last week and it has made a big improvement in the stereo performance. I was able to eliminate the harshness and tiring aspect of the stereo, so now we can rock out and sing along to bad music without our ears hurting. It was a really good mod.
