2006-2012 Porsche Cayman review
The Porsche Cayman has always been there, waiting for the right opportunity. Mysterious yet familiar, its presence could be felt throughout the history of Porsche. So we chose to explore it, giving free rein to our wilder, more intuitive side. Naturally, we incorporated all of our experience in both road and race engineering.A single glance is all it takes to recognise a Porsche. Look a little closer and you’ll find a sporting character unique to the Cayman and the Cayman S. Sinuous, muscular, from front to rear, they are poised and ready to perform. Energy and potential are clearly expressed in the dynamic interplay of concave and convex forms.The heart and soul of any sportscar is, above all, the engine. In both Cayman models, it’s in the right place: directly at the centre of the car. Just how much of a difference that makes is reflected in the engine data. What the data does not convey is how that performance is applied. This attribute – the character of each car – can only be measured by the driver. With the engine revving directly behind you, the relationship is almost symbiotic. Every input is eagerly met with a precise and emphatic response. The power is accompanied by a sound experience that is only possible in a mid-engined car. Another mark of uncompromising engineering, it too is instantly Porsche.Model Range:
