So, let's see if it all works out this time and if some ED-guys are in the area in July, it'll be fun to take a trip to the black forest!

What's the price difference between a standard 1M, Cayman S and Cayman R?

In Hong Kong, 1M is 35% cheaper than a Cayman S and 40% cheaper than a Cayman R.

Can't go wrong with the Cayman R. The Boxster Spyder was absolutely awesome drive, Cayman R is supposed to be better - awesome choice - congratulations!

Thanks! I'm really excited and if the June delivery works out, I'm more than glad. Despite the fact that I spend more money, the whole 1M desaster could turn into something even more great.

@ny911: With the options I took, the Cayman R is about 50% more expensive than an 1M. The S is 5'000 Euros cheaper in the base price than the R. But the S doe neither have the limited slip differential, nor the sport bucket seats. And the other R-specific stuff. So the R is a very attractive package if you're willing to pay the price.
