Looks Only: 370z or Cayman S

mjg · 06-05-2013, 06:53 PM

A poor man's Porsche, or a cheap Porsche, I rather have a 370Z or a real one (911).

I'd only agree for the 2013 Cayman S as it is just so sexy. I've seen a few of the convertible ones in that dark grey with red interior,

I looked into the new Cayman last week. Very sexy car indeed, has plenty of performance & handles better that the Zed, but the price here in Oz is insane. PDK (auto) Cayman (NOT Cayman S) here comes in at just under $150k.

8-(

We get completely raped on car prices here, it farking sucks!

370z and it's not even close (for me).

The new Cayman is beautiful. Wasn't a fan of the older body. Too plain.

Sounds about right to me. Most women would not want a 370Z, at least with the manual trans.

Handling aside, the main point is lighter.

I would never turn the Cayman down...

Nobody disagrees that the Cayman is a better car. At about twice the price. But as far as looks go, the Z wins hands down. Old Cayman, new Cayman, doesn't matter.

Now if this was Z vs 911, I would choose the 911 for looks. I was behind a Turbo S yesterday at a light and I was drooling.

I really like both the 370z and the 2013 Cayman. It really actually comes down to color and individual styling and other things. The 370z roadster does fall a bit behind, though.
