Sport exhaust makes a HUGE difference in my opinion.
Whether it's worth $2500+ or not, is really based on how much money you can afford to blow :laugh:
Hi all,
I did a test drive with a new 718 Cayman S sport chrono, which didnt have the sport exhaust system ( which I believe would have the exhaust button on the console ), On the standard drive mode the exhaust sound is very average, in Sport mode it get a bit deeper and enjoyable.
I just want to know if the Sport Exhaust System makes the sound much better? or the difference is not that great?
I have a manual tran. with a sport button on the consul. When I push it, it sounds like the exhaust gets louder, but I don't have 3 modes, I don't think. I'm a newbie. Can someone tell me what the button does. I read the manual and it says, it goes emotional. What the heck is that????? It doesn't seem to do anything else.
I AutoX and just traded a 2016 MX-5 for the Boxster. Hope I'm not disappointed. The Miata was like a slot car(and under powered). This Boxster is going to take some getting used to, It's so different.
Nitemare--do you have Sport Chrono or just sport? I believe the Sport button heightens the throttle responses--not sure about rev-matching.WOW no reply, huh. Unlike the Mazda Forum, I guess I can't expect any answers. WOW:crying:
I do not have the Sport Chrono, just the sport button. It appears the exhaust gets louder. What kind of response can I expect. I can't tell. I only have 190miles on the car.Nitemare--do you have Sport Chrono or just sport? I believe the Sport button heightens the throttle responses--not sure about rev-matching.
Hey Nitemare, I have owned three new Miatas, a '95, a '00, and a '10, and just bought a 2017 Miata GT soft-top to compliment my Cayman 718S, and enjoy them both, as they are two different sport cars. I love the small size of the Miata, that you "put on" every time you slide into the cockpit. While it only has 155 hp, it only weighs 2300 pounds, and still does 0-60 in six seconds, which is respectable. The two cars have two different personalities, being that one is a hardtop and the other a convertible, which always gives me an option when it's time to drive to work.WOW no reply, huh. Unlike the Mazda Forum, I guess I can't expect any answers. WOW:crying:
Personally despite the price I do whenever possible. I wouldn't buy a child a battery operated toy car & then give them anything less than the best quality alkaline batteries to run it on. Well my 718 is my big kids toy & the 98 octane petrol I fill it with is the equivalent of those Alkaline batteries.Does everyone use the ridiculously over-priced 98 octane petrol by the way?
