Cayman Base / S Differences

Hey guys posting for the first time, so sorry if this has been covered somewhere else (I did not see any mention of this in the FAQ).

What are the differences between the base Cayman and the S? Above and beyond the brakes and engine I mean...

Thanks

6 speed, 18 inch wheels, 3.4 (50 more HP), red caliper "big brakes" are standard on S

5 speed, 17 inch wheels, 2.7, silver caliper "regular brakes" on the non-S

The 2.7 Cayman is an AWESOME car. The Cayman S is "more awesomer", but is $10k more out of the gate. That is a 20 percent premium.

They are both incredible cars.

and...
2.7= black instrument dials, S= silver dials (as opposed to white, which is an option)
2.7= base stereo, S= sound package plus (as standard)
2.7= 5 speed, S= 6 speed
S= somewhat beefier suspension bits

And yes, you should be able to find previous threads on this subject.
