I'd much rather have a base Cayman 981 or 718 over the hideous looking Supra
Looks are subjective, so some may like it, but most think it's fugly af
But this is just my opinion  |
I was quoting brand new Cayman weights and prices.
Any regardless of "bulletproof" the Cayman engine is a turbo 4 banger vs an inline 6 for the Supra.
The inline 6 is a smoother better performing and sounding engine in every way possible with much more room for growth.
As for looks yeah the Cayman is a good looking car but is also generic in regards to the same basic porsche look they've had for decades.
The Supra is an acquired taste but its far from generic or common.
Personally I'd choose the better engine for $25k+ less all day long.
Heck I could buy a brand new Supra and then go buy a used 981, for the same price as a new Cayman S, and have my cake and eat it too!!!
