Recedite, plebes!
Always liked my '98RL. It was my weekend driver. Sold it in 2014 with ~64K miles on it. Still see it around town. Kinda miss it.

Hey Budman...
Maybe by 2022 they will make it easier to do an oil filter change on the transaxle and add new oil. Car has to go on a lift to remove the flat access panel that covers the t/a. Thirty plus bolts to do that and then there's four bolts on the filter cover. No power tools are to be used to remove / install filter cover. Once you pop the cover off it loses about a 1/2pt or so of fluid. Remove old filter, install new one and reassemble everything.

Now, if you want to "track" that new C8? You have to add 2 additional quarts of fluid to the t/a at ~$40-$50/qt. But to get to the fill plug that's another story!
All kinds of stuff has to come off the back of the engine compartment to get to the big engine air intake box which has to come off so the top of the t/a is exposed so you can add those extra 2 quarts. Total fill change is 11.6 qts, not sure if that includes the extra 2 qts if your tracking the car.

Makes working on you CTS-V a piece 'o cake!

I always wanted a Porsche. Got a Cayman and realize now what the fuss was all about. I love me those 911s, but modern ones are too big. Who has $250K for a GT3RS?

I've driven a few Caymans, Boxsters, and 911s, though never owned one. Fun to drive but I don't know if I could live with one as my only daily driver. I know plenty of people do, just not me. I think a BMW is a more comfy / practical daily while still being fun, and the Porsche is more of a weekend twisty / track fun car.

Every car does though if you think about it. The technique is just different for elise/exige. And it's not difficult unless you have some some type of physical limitation.

No way, bikes are easy! I had no idea how incredibly inflexible my spine is until I had to get in a small car.
