My late father dreamed of owning a 1972 Porsche 911s.He had Mercedez benz cars and had a Lancia beta,but he could talk about porsche 911 for days.I cannot go near these cars without being emotional.I am still dreaming of owning one myself.One day.
I used to navigate in a 1972 911 S that had been modified into an RS replica. Stunning car. Very quick. Electric windows and sunroof in 1972 !!!
@@Gnrnrvids You have lived.
@@akolawoleomoba3532 Just semi lucky to fall into navigating for that guy. Apparently only 2 1972 911S were imported into Australia originally. this was one of those 2. He sold the car a few years ago now and made a killing on selling it. I think he bought it for $65k AUD and sold for something like $120k. It had a 3.2 or 3.4 engine with mechanical injection. The injection got dumped for carbys as they are easier to tune and hold their tune. I saw the car for sale about 2 years ago and that guy wanted $150kAUD for it.
Hey sir. I see you are porsche entusiast with a lot of knowlege, can you help me please. I am soon buying 911, just can't decide which one. I don't wanna spend a lot of money but 60-70k is acceptable. Today I am going to look 911 3.5 SportDesign from 2012. Driven just under 39.000km.
Can you please, say your opinion on this car and his price. Thanks a lot!

my condolences bro 😢
I think it’s the colour makes a big difference to been noticed I think if the cayman was the same colour as the 911 you would get the looks 👍
I had a blue cayman in Scottsdale for 2 weeks. People took pictures next to it while it was parked next to a 100k 911 at breakfast one morning.
True. Not many people who don't own a porsche know the difference between models. Even when you do know a cayman from carrera, they look so similar that it takes a second to realize what you're looking at.
For the driving experience I’d go with the cayman. Honestly they’re a joy to drive like a go cart. Handling is unreal.
Cant agree more, like a posh go-kart. Probably the best words you will hear :)
What about 987 Cayman vs 987 Boxster? Do they drive much different?
@@ruimpinho I've had both a 987 Boxster and a 987 Cayman ( my current daily driver) I much prefer the Cayman. The drive feel is similar but the closed body has a bit more rigidity than the open top - and it just feels more sorted and aerodynamic
agree
What about 911 r
Was at my local specialist a week ago for a service. I talked to the mechanic and said how the 997 is looking better and better as it ages. He told me to stick with my Cayman 987S as they are seeing a few 997's coming in with bore scoring, but not a single Cayman with this issue. Interesting bit of insider knowledge...
Not true, the 987s, especially the .1’s also have bore scoring. Look at Joe Talks Cars channel, his cayman s had severe bore scoring and he had the engine rebuilt and resleeved the cylinders.
Yeah, 987.1 Cayman bore scoring is absolutely a thing. It's still a relatively small percentage, but it's what kept me holding out for a 987.2 Cayman S.
@@plus790 .2 has a whole new engine. the 2.9 in 987.1 is a peach though
987.1 S has bore scoring like the 997. The non-S 987 does not. Short stroke and non-forged pistons make it easier on bores and skirt coatings.
I'm willing to bet the difference in looks you get is due to color, not body. Yellow and Miami Blue are both very loud compared to the Cayman's blue.
You can’t argue with physics: a mid engine car will ALWAYS handle better than one with the engine in the back.
I’d lean towards the 987, would find it hard to choose between the Cayman and Boxster. Lean to the latter for those days when you can drop the roof and enjoy the noise.
Please be aware that the 987 does not feature a prominent engine/exhaust sound. You might want to think about upgrading the exhaust.
The high specked Caymen/Boxster is the way to go. I’m in love with the 718 GT4 and Spyder. Those cars drive the way a 911 used to.
Your clear love for this vehicle shows in these videos... keep it up! Or don’t, watching these influenced me to purchase this vehicle... just picked up an ‘06 Carrera S 6-speed... thanks a lot!
Another great and informative video. I had this dilemma a year ago now. I liked the looks of both cars but the 911 had that long Porsche heritage - it is nearly everyone's idea of what a Porsche is. But in the end I bought a beautiful white Cayman. And the reason for the choice was very simple. A sports car, in my mind has two seats. Add that to the mid-engine handling and the decision was made. No regrets.
99% of the general public think the Cayman is a 911 anyways. I think its even prettier myself with a tucked in and chiseled rear end. I certainly would not car what other 911 owners thought and getting caught up in that rat race of model snobbery.

I would love a 911, however I have 2020 Cayman 4 cylinder version and Its my dream car ticks all the buttons for me, however, one day I'll have a 911 as it is iconic. Great show keep on with the good content.
Good honest Vlog. Still love my Boxster though!
I am thinking of the cayman myself and your videos are super helpful
So happy to see you making vids again!!!! This is the second one recently. I have learned a lot from your vids! I have an 06 CS and love it. I will eventually get another Porsche. I had to get the cheapest Porsche as my first Porsche. Please keep making vids!!!!
Just got a old 2000 boxer. Next up a 911 4s. Great videos
I have the base 987.2.. use it daily.. and am in love with the car and the way it handles. About to add a GTwing and front splitter. Gloss black with tan interior. Fantastic car. And I'm convinced there is no more performance for the dollar on the road today..
I’ve got the Cayman, better performing car than the stock 911. Better handling infact unreal handling & it’s quicker. I tested both round the track & I honestly found the cayman a better car. My next Porsche may be the carerra GT4, but that’s a long way off at the minute.
They say the future is all EV, but I have a hard time believing that a Tesla can give the same enjoyment as a Cayman or 911. Also, I love the Miami Blue!!
That's for utility not recreation. 99% of people aren't into cars and enjoy the simplicity and utility of Electric cars. For enthusiasts there will always be racing and that's why street-illegal race cars can exist today but as a utility electric is the future.
Tesla’s are great for daily driving, but Porsche’s are irreplaceable for driving feel. “There is no substitute”.
Tesla cannot, awesome car though! I've driven it and I own own a Porsche and it's a driving experience you cannot compare
Loved the cayman modification videos, would be nice to see some more.
Good summary of my similar Cayman except that the heart anticipation starts racing when I pick up the keys. Agreed James, plus, new plugs and coil packs does the trick to remove the engine management light...cheaper than replacing the cats which a different dealer mistakenly diagnosed😳.
love all Porsche cars. Not too keen on the SUV's but they have their place. Great video as always.
Great comparison. Useful to a potential buyer. Beautiful cars too. Keep up the good work.
Buy TWO Caymans; I did.
2011 987.2 S
Brilliant.
I loved my 987.2 manual and now my 981 GTS PDK. I am intrigued by the 911...maybe someday. Great video.

I’ve seen several of your videos, well done and informative.
10:40 what a beautiful explanation 👏
If you're going to get a tiptronic then it's a must to get the sports chrono to make it somewhat fun to drive. I thought the Boxster is the entry level Porsche then comes the Cayman? I much prefer the Cayman over the Boxster but it's the 911 that takes my heart. Great video!
Have a 981 Boxster S.. Only 6K miles and had to replace the Motor Mount because it went bad. Part of the Sport Crono package. Understand this is very common. Buyers should be aware of this. KJ
Another great video Satch.👍😎.. been waiting for this type of video for a while now.. i think the only reason 911 gets more looks is the colour.. would look better with spoiler on back but that's my opinion..
I've spent £100's on my 2010 987.2 in last couple years (minor faults and shifter cable replacement as a pro-active measure not breakdown luckily). but she's my daily drive and has over 70k on her now..
Shes currently in for service and new injectors (had on/ off misfire for last few months) so I'm expecting a hefty bill.. but like you say don't buy one if youre not expecting to pay for the enjoyment.. hopfully this last hiccup is my last one for a while..🤞🤞
I owned a 996C4 for about 10 years. Sold it to buy a 987.2 Cayman (2.9 liter). The 911 was faster, but the Cayman is a true sports cars. Track lap times about the same due to superior handling.
Good work again 😊
I have a 997.2 C2S PDK. I think the handling is better than you describe but that maybe my personal judgement. The steering feel is definitely better than the C4S.
Keep up with the videos. 👍
I prefer the cayman
That 997 is AMAZING COLOUR! Love it 😍
Had both prefer the 997 but had no issues with the boxster changed for back seats but glad I did
Great content. Many people have the dilemma of cayman vs 911, as I did and I think it comes down to you as a individual. For me I went for a base cayman because it stick to the roads so well as I’m not a confident driver and it reassured me in the corners. I think 911 blue is more eye catching and attractive hence more looks
I had a nice surprise had my ims bearing checked found it had a upgraded one fitted by Porsche from new 👍
Where and how much it cost to do that?
I’m in Mexico and thinking about do in a Porsche agency the full intermediate shaft replacement, only because they doesn’t have and do warranty in IMS bearing-only replacement
Great video, love watching you drive all of your cars 🚗👍❤️💜
Looking at getting a Cayman ... useful video thanks 😊
Great review mate 👍
There is no doubt that if Porsche would apportion the Cayman as they do the 911, the Cayman would easily outsell the 911. It INHERENTLY handles better....sorry but the mileage is better...and it looks better. There isn't a bad angle on the car...a work of art. It doesn't need 4 wheel steering...it doesn't need all the handling "electronics" which is to keep the back end in check like the 911. After driving both cars I actually had to make the choice you're referring to. My choice of my Cayman S was a no-brainer. It never ever failed to put a smile on my face...a true driver's car.
That was a very nice video Al. The yellow and bright blue are really stand-out colours. I just love 997s
Great video and very interesting real world comparison. I am in my third year of Cayman S ownership, an `06 ;like yours, and other than oil changes, have had to spend zero on it so far. Not even a small bulb. Amazing. I mentioned this to you before but IMS bearing problems are almost a non issue with any Cayman from `06 onwards. Can be an issue on the older model 997 design however. Bore scoring definitely something to look out for , and gear shifter cables are best swapped out on older cars as a preventative measure.. I previously owned a 997 Carrera like yours, but prefer the simpler, purer Cayman manual experience. I have a full Capristo exhaust on mine and it sounds awesome.
I bought a 987.2 boxter base model yesterday. Thanks for all the videos on your channel, I have watched quite some of them and they helped a lot with the decission.
3 years ago, I had a '007 911-C4S and a '006-Cayman-S. Of course, the 007-911 C4S had more power, and the '06 Cayman S handled a bit better (being mid-engined), but the 911's driving position was simply better. I drove the 911 on odd days, and the Cayman on even days ... but couldn't detect much difference beyond the obvious.
But one fine day I drove both cars "back-to-back" and continued to change back and forth a couple times, and I came up with this conclusion:
The 911 drives like a solid tank made of steel ... whereas the Cayman drives like a solid tank made out of thinner-gauge steel ... just slightly thinner. Barely noticeable. And the Cayman felt lighter, and more capable of being thrown into a curve, or back and forth from one lane on the highway to another. I'm sure others have reported similarly.
Now I have a 2019 Tesla Performance Model S, and a 2013 911 C4S (with a ducktail) The 2013 911 C4S is raw in performance, yet refined in handling. The Tesla is even faster (i.e., 0-to-60 mph in 3.2 seconds), but fails to inspire trust-in-the-corners like the 911 does. The Tesla's handling is much like a BMW M3 (as I've driven my son's M3), but (again) doesn't inspire as much confidence in the corners as an M3 ... but that lack of trust could be due to my non-familiarity with this sedan having a better weight-distribution, and lower center of gravity.
I'm still gettin familiar with the 2019 Tesla and the 2013 911. BTW, all my sports cars have always been close-ratio manuals, except the 5-speed 1990 C4 and the Tesla Performance Model 3, but at least the Tesla's practical. I don't love the 7-spd ... but when I start vacation on the highway, I think I will.

@@mudjashorts1766 Sorry for my tardy reply: I've not looked at prices in quite a while, but the price seems OK to me, if its closer to $60,000 american dollars. I like this car because it's a 3.4 or 3.5 liter engine, with 2-wheel drive, not 4-wheel drive ... a more basic car, no, I mean more traditional 911. The only significant thing I dont' like is the dopple-clutch automatic transmission, because I'm just one of those die-hard gear heads ... if you gonna have a sports-car, then go all the way. ... but that's me, and my opinion. I dd NOT notice the SportDesign features, and could not read the foreign language on the link you sent me, so my review is probably not very valuable or reliable to you.
I looked for a 2009-2011 997 for about 2 years before seeing my 2013 991 (accidentally) while looking through the "Porsche USA" website.
@@neilanderson891 Oh, thanks for replay. It helps, today I am going to try this Porsche, the guy is living near by. But I have another option for Porsche 911 Cabriole (2017 - 96,000$) only 9300 miles. And much more upgraded with features, chrono, etc...
Thanks for replay tho. Good day sir
Excellent video very informative!

Very informative video as per, channels going in a v exciting direction
718 GTS turbo 2.5L here. It has 365hp, sub 4 0-60, and gets 25mpg daily driving and 35mpg highway. If you remove the badges, most people would pick a Cayman S over a base 911. That could be a really fun video!
Tough choices guys. I drive a 2.5l Boxster gts pdk and a cayman 987.1 manual. Never wanted the rear engine 911. All great cars but the midship is where it’s at for me. If I had to pick I’d go with the convertible those California days are great. Obviously I struggled picking so I hedged with both and leave the truck outside. No regrets only open roads

Nice video man!
I have a 997c2 tiptronic 2007 and I love the car. So many people talk about the tiptronic and it’s always complained about in many ways, I must not be so much of an expert like you guys as I can’t complain one bit about it. Each and every time I drive it the car makes me smile.
Tiptronic is an excellent gearbox, 99% of people that complain about it have never even tried one.
I have a 2007 Boxster S with tip. Was a bit of an impulse buy and up to this point all I had owned was vintage 911s and 356s. After 2 months of ownership I am have no regrets and am completely happy with having an automatic. I’m 48 and don’t need to heel-toe every corner at this point in my life. Plus, I’m having the dealer put in a later PDK wheel with paddles so I’ll be very happy in about a week.
Tip cars seem to have a discount vs manual. Works for me
All that being said, I think my next 911 will be a manual. Needed to get the rear out on the corners. Not sure getting the rear out with a Boxster or Cayman is advisable.
@@bitcapone3173 oooh, can you give more details about the new wheel? Which dealer is doing it, which wheel and how much?

Another great bid Satch you have to spend on maintenance on any car so quite happy to spend on my 986 boxster long term I could possibly stretch to a cayman but a 911 would be out of my reach but still great to look at on your vids
Nice job
Good info
And thanks for sharing your toys
Can’t wait till my next porsche
Another great video maybe a 911 next time round for me 👍😎
My Cayman 987.1 went for a service at a specialist that's always looked after it for the last 3.5 years. Called me after half an hour and said come and gave a look underneath. Both head gaskets had blown on the outside and were leaking coolant!!! Not mixing with the oil but it's an engine out touchable the gaskets. Car has only done 65k miles!
I've owned both a 997.1 S and now own a 987.1 Cayman S. The 911 is a better car, but the Cayman is very good and is every bit as much fun as the 997S.

Love my 987.1 Cayman S but wouldn’t mind giving the 911 a go. Time to start saving I guess!!!!!
997.1 I have bought it 5 years ago yes they are stunning cars but you will find the cayman more reliable
very well explained,good maintained cars,i also rather have manual drive cars,but i would like to try pdk,wend i can afford, thanks very good.
Keep it up man.
What about a feature on a 981 Cayman
Great video - buying a Porsche is easy, keeping it is hard! Needs a good deal of annual investment as it is a performance car.
You are so underrated
You won't find one for those prices now. Just in the last 6 months or so the prices have shot way up on both.
I like the cayman, because of the color LOL 👍👍❤️❤️👍
Hi, can you recommend an indie warranty as a safer way to own one of these cars? Thanks
Do you know of any Porsche meets coming up in the Newcastle area? I’d love to come along to one
I owned a 997.2 with PDK. The PDK was a massive step forward in an auto tranny and they are quicker than a manual. I couldn’t own a tip.
Go in at the bottom level and spend the next 10k fixing it. Now you have the security that its 100 reliable
Whats your thoughts on Coupe versus convertible
What front
lip spoiler do u have on the blue cayman?
The 911s get more looks due to the colours I think. The cayman colour is subtle, smart and understated. Love the lobster claw wheels on the cayman tho. One problem with my cayman is no cruise control. Deffo tech lacking.
Who needs cruise control in a sports cars, and even more so in a very congested country like England ??
@@jamesmarshall3311 agree for the UK and most of the time but like to take the car on road trips/track days in Europe. Holland,Belgium and France.
Now I want a blue one...you may borrow mine any time.
Satch, I recently enjoyed Porsche Museum Stuttgart and recommend it ! Watch my short videos , There was a 944S2 Convertible unique colour with 0 miles ! Absolutely stunning ! Make it Rain ;)
Call me crazy but I've always thought Cayman looks as good as 911.
I am in the Dallas area and the Autotrader shows no New 911's available? and the cheapest coupe is 89K for a 2005 Carrera 23k miles non-turbo...CRAZINESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hey, I like your channel, with whatever name you want to call it. 😉 But, do me a favor? Consult your wardrobe team! Burgundy sweatshirt and orange shorts? No, no no! 😜
I own both. I prefer the Cayman S. I think it's a better-looking car imho.
I really like that Grilsl at the Foglight position of that 987, that looks way much better than two round foglights... maybe someone knows where I could buy these grills...?
Interesting how tastes differ. I like the classic round lights and think changing them out for a cheap strip of LED's is not an upgrade.
Thanks for the info on some maintenance costs.
This is very, very useful for prospective owners to realise what costs can arise.
Not enough people show this & concentrate on new cars but I’d imagine in reality there are far more people who are going to spend £20k-£30k on a used car than £80k-£120k on a new one.
Whilst it’s entertaining to ‘window shop’ expensive new cars, it’s very interesting and relevant to get real life views, comparisons and running costs on the cars that we really can buy.
That doesn’t mean boring cars of course! 😉
Carrera. With a manual. All day.

There's this thing that happens with the 997, it happened with my 2007 C2S don't know if it happens with other cars or maybe newer models. The keyhole in the ignition gets blocked off and you can't put your key into it to start the car, I've read about some people falling into the wrong hands over this and having to replace the ignition lock unit.
Found out from the forums, it worked for me so if this ever happens to you just get an old Toyota key, the old style of keys for some reason will enter that hole and release the thing that blocks off that hole, stick your key back in and start your car.
Olukunle My 996 suffered from this issue. I replaced the ignition switch and all is good again. Replaced it myself. Cost me $40 US. Cheers from Hershey Pa.
@@seanschaefer5233 Wow ok so probably happens across a number of models
There is a tiny pin hole unlock setting on the barrel and takes 10 secs to unlock if you know what to look for.
Just seen F9 MOE for sale on Facebook marketplace. Seemed a bit odd seeing as how I only watched your review on “Rainmaker” last night???
Pick one it would be?
I agree with your view on the manual gearbox. Ive had a manual 911 996 Targa which I then exchanged for a 997.2 PDK. Whilst the PDK is something else my brain won't let go of how much I enjoyed the Targa. Great video , keep gong please as this is a great channel.
Hey sir. I am buying 911, just can't decide which one. I don't wanna spend a lot of money but 60-70k is acceptable. Today I am going to look 911 3.5 SportDesign from 2012. Driven just under 39.000km.
Can you please, say your opinion on this car and his price. Thanks a lot!
Here is link: Porsche 911 Carrera 3.5 SportDesign 350 KS (99.000 KM = 59.000$)

What colour is the 911 rwd? Is that Miami blue or is it a darker shade? I can't tell...
I love my boxster but a 911 would be my all time car. here is the states they are about $60k for a sorted example about 10 years old.
Cayman
Right on the money with having to pay a bit. 996 carrera here, Engine died. But I got 5 years' driving out of it - but spent about 2k/year in maintenance. These are NOT cars you buy if you want to save money
Nice video I love the manual 787S Cayman. How many Porsches do you own? You’re right about manual is way better then that tiptronic.car.
Cayman’s are better than base 911’s. More fun, lighter, nimble, and more precise. Buy a base 911 if all you care about is what people think of you.
the only reason to buy a Cayman over a 911, and I mean ONLY reason... is you don't have the money for a 911.. I mean, really.
Lighter, smaller, better handling, engine in the right place , I had the money ,Cayman every time for me.
He didn't answer his own question from the video title 😐🙄
What color is the 911? Miami blue?
"Lack of buttons" in Cayman. That's a plus point for me. I just want to get in a car and drive it. Not to worry about too much electronic stuff. Cayman better looking and on uk roads, better than 911.
Crossover pipes an issue too.
