I wouldn't have drove it from GL to maryland
:what:

Cross country driving is one of the most amazing experiences in a Porsche. You clearly don't want to do it every weekend, but a first time drive is the PERFECT time to do it. Especially since OP's story is like most Porsche owners. Some dudes even go direct to Germany and drive that bytch to the warf for shipment to the US or wherever they live. Porsche ownership is an experience like no other.

Its honestly my anti-depressant.

How tall are you? Looked at em before felt small to me

The Cayman was the car i intended on purchasing. But as someone that is 6'2'' the cayman was too cramped for me. The latest models 2015 and up have a bigger interior, so the issue isn't as serious. A good friend of mine has the Cayman GTS, and that shyt is dope as fukk, and has a roomy interior.

Do Porsches come in automatic...I'm asking for a friend

Yeah. Anything below 2009 is tiptronic though. It's average. 2009 up is PDK. PDK is gawd status for dual clutch transmissions. Seriously it is. The launch control system on it is crazy.

I want one but I may need to get the newer gen because I can't fit comfortably in the 2009's

Congrats :wow:

As long as there isn't rust on the underbody and wear on the platform and some of the other components, and there aren't any loose panels from high speed driving and whatnot, it's a hell of a buy.

Nice car, coworker of mine had the same gen in orange. Cayman is probably the only Porsche I'd buy (unless I become rich)
Would be cool if you kept us up to date with maintenance etc

OP is a boss. And makes me more ambitious with school and my future career.

Keep your life together brehs...

Bit of a serious moment. Keep at it. Don't let anyone stop you from achieving anything. It's just a car and it's a material item but to be able to experience these things at a younger age is exciting. Keep up with school and don't have any kids before marriage. Wrap it up as it not a game. If you get married younger don't have kids right away. I turned 30 in March of this year. I got a girl but I don't have kids. Some people I know are already pushing minivans now from all the kids they have. They gotta spend bread on Honda Odysseys while I am able to use it on a sports car. If that's the life you choose then great for you. But if not do you.

It's crazy how people stay checking you out in a car like this though. I didn't notice it at first until my dad pointed it out. My dad was in the car while I was parking to attend my cousin's graduation. My dad is like did you see that young lady staring at you hard. LMAO. I have gotten random thumbs up from cats. Dudes breaking necks when I pass. I pulled up to a Nigerian baby shower(food was amazing) and dude sister went crazy over me when I hopped out the car LMAO.

So I finally got my money shot from my mountain drive last week. Shoutouts to Henry for taking this picture and making this possible.
