On revision cars they change usually things like front or rear bumpers, tail lights, interior, audio system. These things sell, not suspension changes.

Now you need to drive a '17 revised car and a Cayman .

You are supposed to be longer in this forum and you should know that different vendors changed the spring rates too. KW, Bilstein, Ohlins to name a few. Better tires was the one part of the equation, revised spring rates was the other part.

You don't understand that our cars were designed at the beginning to be tail happy and you want to explain to you why the Cayman suspension is better?

Maybe you can check this review to understand the main differences ...
