It drives better than cars costing 3 times as much. And the Cayman has that God awful shape that resembles a 911. Horrible. As far as the Porsche being a dream car, I don't think so. Dream cars are named Ferrari, Lamborghini, Pagani, etc. Actually the FR-S looks more "exotic" than the Cayman. Did I make my point?

There is definitely a variety of reasons why people have come to the FR-S. There is obviously a certain percentage that this is a beginner's enthusiast car and there are others that have sampled a variety of platforms and have realised that the FR-S is simply a great drivers car. To quote a car reviewer, "this car is such a willing playful thing.". I think calling a Porsche an exotic might be somewhat of a stretch, but, it is definitely a sports car worth aspiring to. For me, I would prefer a 911 Turbo S, but a Cayman is considerably more affordable.
