Awesome! Do it!! I daily my Macan, but the Cayman (manual) is also a pleasure to commute in. I am in the Bay Area as well. If you can commute the 280 instead of the 101, it will be that much more pleasurable. Maybe an occasional drive home on an alternate route that involves PCH or Skyline (and a burger at Alice’s) would be a blast!

I’m in a 981 GT4. The ride is fine for short and long drives. Mine has 18 way sofas and I can say they are super comfortable and amazing for the longer drives. I chose the sofas after owning a Lotus Elise with non-adjustable buckets, and my back screamed at me after 30 min of driving.

Cabin is loud, but it is a pleasure to hear the 3.8L singing away right behind you. Easy to add a CarPlay/Android Auto device to your PCM.

If you are DIY with maintenance, the 981 is super easy to do engine and transaxle oil changes on since no rear underpanels to remove (unlike the 718) to get to the drain plugs.
