Hey I know we are not 911 guys but I really like what Porsche has done to upgrade the 911.
I wish they would upgrade the 928

They were forced into the big change as the other cars/manufacturers (Ferrari, Audi etc) had left the 911 behind a couple of years ago. ALMS series showed how strong a mid engine Porsche was doing very well in its class; 1st, 2nd, 3rd where the 911 did not make the top 5.

As per the 928 where it was the superior car Porsche decided to re-do the 911 again than add more power to the better handling Cayman.

Check out the results from Daytona Rolex race.......I was cheering for all the Caymans :)

hhhhmmmm kind of Cayman-esque.....!

I heard the 911 may be mid-engine by 2017 I think.....

They purposely held the Cayman back because it would have stolen 911 sales....I will get one one day, I love the way it looks from the back and side.
