this man really loves his car!

[@DriveMore718]

Absolutely!

[@badkatrising3918]

Love to see people passionate about what they love. Good stuff.

[@andrewbrown5636]

Sold my 981 recently as I fancied a change.. looked at everything from Mustangs, F type V8’s, Aston Martin Vantage, TVR Tuscans and Nissan GT-R’s. Ended up with a 718S. One thing you didn’t mention was great value retention and Porsche as a great brand who values their heritage which also helps with residuals. Great vid!

[@DriveMore718]

I did the same thing, I was looking at a few different cars but at the end of the day the 718 Cayman S fit everything I wanted in a car. The way Porsche as a brand represents themselves was a big reason for the purchase. They are all about the customers and just making great driving sports cars. Happy you liked the video, plenty more to come!

[@karamellisiertesfallobst8303]

"great value retention" that's the most important argument from my point of view to acquire a Cayman. The German market for used Caymans revealed the following: Base Caymans from 2017 or 2018 have depreciated only less than 20% of their original price. Thus, I would go for a new Cayman.

[@bobbygoodman2875]

Love your excitement and I totally understand! Congratulations.

[@kvxformula1]

Great review. Just got a 718 myself and love it! And yes, put it in Sport Mode and it sounds and feels sick.

I GET MINE ON TUESDAY NEXT WEEK!!!! I am just as excited as you are!!!! I’m very small and find the seats super comfy. There were literally only mine and a boxster in Canada - not another new coupe available and a one year+ waitlist for ordering one. OMG I will never use the cup holders. No food or liquids in my car ever (ok sometimes I have water).

[@micraw714]

I drove a base 718 last year and it blew my mind 😲 such an amazing feeling with that mid engine and how light it is on its feet. I want one lol either a 981 or 718. Congrats brotha!

That Miami blue is a head turner! Plus the 718 models don’t get that color option anymore so those Miami blue cars might start going up in value!

I am new to your channel, and I ran into this video because I am searching for information about the 718 Cayman S, as I will probably buy one. You mentioned APR Tuning in it. Did you do it? If so, is it any good , especially the ECU tuning? Any downside to it? Your help will be appreciated.

[@swirl._.3]

there is just something about this car....love it

[@guitarenigma]

Thanks for posting! I'm the proud owner of a 2018 718 Cayman S with a manual gearbox. So far I've done the Porsche short-throw shifter, the white Euro front side marker lights and the red-delete blackened tail lights (which look amazing on an agate grey car). Looking forward to see your tuning tricks to make it even more of a race car for the street!

[@DriveMore718]

You should post a video of the car on your channel, I'd love to check it out. Sounds like a beautiful spec! The lowering springs, tune and wrap are going on this car in April so ill be posting lots of video's about the process.

[@jonm.678]

I've driven one of these a few times and they are a BLAST to drive. Sport mode with a manual transmission in this car is probably the most fun I've had in an automobile.

Congrats on the purchase. I'm also looking for 718 cayman s pretty soon. Man I've literally watched every review on this car on KZbin and I just can't wait haha. I've driven a base 911 and it felt incredibly fast I can just imagine a even lighter vehicle and mid engine!! And best part is they're way more affordable than a 911.

Hey Joshua, thanks for watching! I actually recently raced a base 2017 911 and the cayman S was a bit faster! These cars are amazing and for the price you can’t get better. I’m excited for you to join the 718 family!

[@DriveMore718]

Mainly the price point and how difficult it is to get a C8 at sticker price right now. Plus with the tune this thing is just as fast as a C8 so now I prefer this car to a C8!

[@DriveMore718]

Hey man thanks for watching! I had the exact same problem but I’m going to be tracking the car a lot so for safety I decided to go with the coupe. If your not tracking the car then I’d go with the booster! Just being able to have this driving experience with the top down much be AMAZING! Honestly you can’t go wrong either way!

[@dmlkcs8620]

I was also debating between the boxster & the coupe and in the end went with the coupe because I live in a very big city. If it was 15 yrs ago, hands down I would not have had to give thoughts and would have bought the boxster but now with all the crazy people, drive by shootings, car highjacking... I decided against it. If I lived in a smaller town, it would be different but in a big city, I don’t want to always ride with the fear of maybe something happen. Of course, it’s just my opinion.

Do you have 20” tires on your S? Asking because if the ride is hard, you could downsize to 19”. I test drove 2 CS, one had 19”, the other 20” and there was a big difference in the ride. Some say there is no difference between tire sizes but others swear there is. Just thought I would throw that one in just in case.

[@DriveMore718]

I actually heard that was a good fix from another guy too. I would do that but I’m lowering the car anyways so the ride will never be great :/ but it’s a sports car so I’ll learn to live with it. Thanks for the suggestion though!

Porsche dosent have a ‘button’ to start the engine. I prefer turning the ignition myself, so when someone dosent option the keyless go, you turn the ignition with the key. But, if the car has the keyless go you have a key in there already, just gotta switch it on. Heritage feature, and I love it.
