Mercs are for ballies, man! Didn't you know?
The "significantly cheaper than the Cayman" part would invalidate most of the options mentioned I think......interesting, maybe TTS or M6. All depends on how old you willing to go 😄
Cars that would be great would be 1M, V10 M6, TTRS, A45AMG but none of these bar the V10 would be cheaper than the cayman though so all wrong answers lol

True, I’ve lost all bearings on price with the market going nuts lately, so probably wrong

Less exciting than an M3 rules out M6, 1M and (maybe?) A/CLA 45...True, I’ve lost all bearings on price with the market going nuts lately, so probably wrong

Need to clarify my statement...Not a traditional sports car, but quicker than the Cayman is where the problem lies

In 0-100, in perfect road conditions, the Cayman S is marginally quicker.
In slippery conditions, the new car is quicker.
Also, in gear acceleration is better in the new car.
The car is AWD and has 4 doors.
More details to follow next week.
Right now I have these challenges:
- The brakes are 6 piston Brembos and I am trying to get the pads (maybe discs too) replaced before Plan expires soon
- Insurance is R300 more pm vs the Cayman and that is with a heavy maximum excess. Need to phone around.
- There is some paintwork required on the front end that I am pushing to get done as part of the deal.
- I am negotiating with an independent buyer to take my Cayman at a price higher than what I paid.
I need all those stars to align properly. Which should be soon.
The AWD, 4 doors and Brembos are enough of a big clue though...
