Nice!

I drove a 6spd 2010 base Cayman at work and really fell in love with it. The way it handled, how comfortable it was, and I like the looks more than most 911s personally.

Must wait for the DFI models to get into affordable territory.

It’s kind of the Miata of the Porsche line in terms of reliability and how little you have to do to it.

This after $5000 in mods to keep a stock one from oil starving at the track? Stuff like this and the IMS are the biggest things keeping me from 98X-chassis cars. I told myself I'd have to get a Boxster S or Cayman S before I bought another S2000, but I'm thinking otherwise the more I look into it. Which sucks, because I REALLY like the Cayman!

Great article!  I love my Cayman, it was a 2008 Design Edition and I followed a very similar path mentioned in the article. A few aero bits and a full Tractive Suspension from TPC.  A ton of weight still to come out of the car and a few horses to add and give back.  But just ran VIR full course and did a 2 min 10 sec lap.  After looking at the data there is definitely another 4-5+ sec I can get.  A really amazing machine to work on and drive.
