Thanks guys! She is all original (well minus the tires.
What years is yours?
I had a 1963 Lincoln Continental, green metallic and white vinyl interior. Black on black is the only color combo I like more than green/white.
I brought it back from the dead, after it sat under a tree for 21 years. I regret selling it and look forward to the day I can buy another one.
thanks mike. i'm not a fan of the new models out there. of course acura would come out with the type S models a few months after i got mine. :/
i still love it though. WDP with black interior w/ nav auto. wanted a 6spd but there were none available with the color combo i wanted.
since this was my 3rd acura purchased from the same dealer they threw in the lip kit and low jack.
few mazdas in here, few 3s, heres my POS
needs coilovers and legit wheels
I love that colour! Definitely going to be the colour of my next car.
closed track don't try at home
yeah, I think you'll be very pleased. Yellow is an interesting color & good choice; I chose this color because I could not do the boring black, red, or silver exterior with black leather interior that is so commonly seen.

Getting one will make a very interesting comparison for me to the '05 M3 I had. I still miss that car, but love the Cayman. Yours looks really nice, BTW.

If you're a speed demon you'll find that your M3 was much quicker; if you're a control freak you'll find the Cayman amazing. The thing sticks to the road like glue; takes corners almost effortlessly! My favorite thing is highway on/off ramps

Well, I drive a MINI JCW now, so moving to the Porsche will be nice. However, the 1 Series M Coupe is still on the table too.If you're a speed demon you'll find that your M3 was much quicker; if you're a control freak you'll find the Cayman amazing.

The big decision will be whether to stay with manual shift or spring for a faster double-clutch gearbox.

That is a tough choice....1M, Cayman, paddle shift or row through the gears.....
If it were me (I'd choose either car), the stick shift would be my choice if I were to drive it more like a DD than a weekend car. Rowing through the gears around town and commuting keeps me active vs the music, or engine sound slowly putting me to sleep.

Turbo and rated at 0-60 in 6.2s Anywhere sell backwards Apple stickers so I can put one inside because people keep picking my Apple stickers off
I got a new (to me) car recently (January of this year). Previous cars were 2001 Nissan Pathfinder SE, 2002 Civic LX, 2003 Corolla LE, then this 2008 Sentra SL (with Intelligent Key, Rockford Fosgate sound, etc).
Had fun with some iPhone HDR app.

No, it was some 3rd party app. It's most definitely over saturated, but i like how it looks because everything where I live looks rather bland.
I've done both. I can heel-toe shift in my JCW all day with no problem, and yet I had the SMG II gearbox in my M3. I didn't think the paddle shifters made driving any less engaging (I never used the auto mode, other than to try it out once). As I see it, the one and only downside to the double-clutch gearbox is the added cost of getting it.
And the huge weight. Note that this was the primary reason that Lamborghini did not use one in their new car.
Good point. I wonder what the weight difference is from a manual 6 on the BMW 1 Series and the Porsche Cayman.
A quick search says that PDK weighs 66lbs (about 30Kg) more than the 6-speed manual option.
