Thanks for the info!

That said, don't do it at the expense of your Cayman R. Cayman R > any Boxster/Cayman.
Chris! I hear you man - def wouldnt trade the R for it. Even tho my girlfriend says they look EXACTLY the same i want a new Boxster and the Cayman R. Redundant? Maybe a little .......and i hear you on the cars being pushed on the roadways. That is what i always tell people. My Cayman S/Spyder/Cayman R have MORE THAN ENOUGH power for me and how i like to use a car. I am more into the experience and the feeling than i am into how fast i go/accelleration.

Cayman R and Boxster would be a great combo. Not redundant IMO, esp. if you're tracking the R. GO test drive a base Boxster - you'll be surprised how fun it is. If you're looking for flat-out speed in a convertible anyway, skip the Boxster S and get a Corvette GS convertible.... Of course, there's much more to an enjoyable drive than pure speed and a shitty interior.

Congats to you. But You are killing me! White over black will be nice. What other options are you getting? And a 3 month wait isnt bad. Hmmmm
