TRD has become a joke.

Let's face it, if I went full retard and agreed to buy the two, no one will take the second one off my hands as no one would be dumb enough. So what? I'm 52K in the hole, plus the cost of the original car, that's 77K MSRP. Let's say it's 4grand after tuning and the rest of the outrageously priced TRD pipes that need to make this thing work.

that's 81K before any taxes or shipping which is 8000 more than a BRAND NEW Cayman S with 325HP from the factory. Not to mention the 2012 Cayman R can be had for less than a new 2013 Cayman S. I think it's quite reasonable to make the statement that the Cayman S is a far, FAR superior car in than the 86 by no stretch of the imagination.

You know what would be a slap in the face and nuts and have your shaft chewed off after paying 81K to have a supercharged 86? Getting only 50HP more at the crank for your troubles.

Almost as outrageous as TRD charging 250 for replacing a push button starter that may or may not be grams lighter than stock with a "better" mechanism.
