never changed anything except oil, filters, spark plugs and pads for 80000 kms....the car now has 126000 kms and it's perfect....C43 has nothing in common..?
@@sneakypotato4016don’t buy a 997.1 Cayman S. the 2.9 or 2.7 litre engines are more reliable. Move past 2007 and you’ll also reduce the IMS bearing failure .. I’d suggest a 987.2 or a 981 - either option should get you PDK vs Tiptronic. And you can be sure of better reliability if you go the 3.4 S model after 2009. Hope this helps
PDK is a very good tho,I get that a lot of people like manual but if I'm gonna drive a Porsche I'm gonna drive it for fun but for travelling as well so PDK is the way
Which road and country did you drive this car on? :) I'm also interested to try
Why emergency flashers in tunnels?
Yes, 100 %
is a base 2.9 reliable on a track? does it require the middle radiator?
this is a Porsche, so no issues ....i turned 70000 km for less that 5 years, just oil/filters change, spark plugs once and that's all....
what are those silver things on the Steering wheel?
paddles for the gears...but they are stupid , so i don't use them
@@salsubaru yeah i also thought that's stupid... but there are PDK Versions with actual Paddles i think
My friend how has the reliability been at higher milage ? im looking between this and a mercedes c43

Yes it doesn't only the price was similar to c43, but i don't know anything about the reliability of these cars. @@salsubaru
@@sneakypotato4016 2.7 is the old engine with IMS...look for 987.2...2,9 or 3,4

is car 100% stock?
Sounds like ferrari
Great sounding car, great driving car but PDK?! No! No! NO!
Depends on the driver. I have to get a PDK myself as my knee is busted.
@@smaariseth That is different, you have no other option...

It’s 2023. Some of us don’t care for these old systems of driving. The PDK gives you both manual and automatic.
@@mikeobii You either CAN drive manual either NOT! Еither DRIVER or Not...
Analog drive
