6,000 rpm. From a standing start,
the Cayman accelerates to
62 mph (100 km/ h) in 5.8 seconds.
With the optional Porsche
Doppelkupplung (PDK), this sprint
takes just 5.7 seconds. Top
speed is 165 mph (265 km/ h)
in conjunction with the manual
gearbox. Equally impressive, with the CDR-30 audio system

with 5-inch display. An integrated
six- disc CD autochanger is
available as an option.
The Cayman has found its way.
Its own? Without doubt.
The Cayman is the driving force
behind precisely one at titude:

the absolute conviction to remain
true to oneself. No middle roads.
No compromises. No nonsense.
One of the features that exempli -
fies this at titude is the mid- engine
layout, which ensures a low centre however, is the 10
% reduction in
fuel consumption and the 12 %
reduction in CO2 em issio ns,
depending on the t ype of gearbox.
The power of the engine is deliv -
ered to the road by a precision
six-speed manual gearbox. Fit ted

opposed power unit has a capacit y
of 2.9 litres. The engine delivers a
power output of 195 kW
(265 hp)
at an engine speed of 7,200 rpm.
A maximum torque of 300 Nm
is achieved bet ween 4,400 and allows an eye-catching view of

the powerful brake system. And
the interior? The overall impression
is simply one of high qualit y. For

is achieved at 4,750 rpm.
This means, it has been possible
to reduce fuel consumption by
up to 15 % and CO
2 emissions
by up to 16 %, depending on the
t ype of gearbox.
To accept no compromises,

to make conscious decisions, to
be governed by nothing other
than one’s own free will, and to
have a clear point of view. A
highly promising way to build a
sportscar. For us, it ’s the only
w ay. The Cayman S reaches 62 mph
(100 km/ h) in just 5.2 seconds.
Top speed isn’t reached until

172 mph (277 km/ h). Porsche
Doppelkupplung (PDK, p. 48)
is available as an option.
The fastest rate of acceleration
of 4.9 seconds is achieved
in conjunction with the optional
Sport Chrono Package.
In addition to having a higher
power output, the Cayman S
also dif fers from the Cayman in
This philosophy was also the

basis for the development of the
mid-mounted engine with a
3.4-litre capacit y and direct fuel
injection (DFI, p. 34). The engine
delivers a power output of
235 kW (320 hp) at 7,200 rpm,
and a maximum torque of 370 Nm its appearance. It has a front
spoiler painted in the vehicle’s
exterior colour, and t win

tailpipes in stainless steel. The
sound? Distinctive. In keeping
with the rest of the Cayman S.
But so much power also needs
to be tamed. This is the task of
the enlarged brake system with
four-piston aluminium monobloc
fixed calipers in a striking red
painted finish. To deliver the increased power
output to the road, the Cayman S
is fit ted with 18-inch Cayman S II
wheels. Their design exudes pure
dynamism – as befits the model’s
overall look.
In summary, the Cayman S

is more than just a sportscar.
It ’s a Porsche.
It takes no prisoners,
except for your free will.

Noise.
The Cayman models comply with
all applicable noise regulations
without any form of engine encap-
sulation. To achieve this, noises
are eliminated at source. Engine
parts are stif f, moving parts are
light weight and tolerances are
kept to a minimum. Large-volume
silencers and resonators in the
air intake system minimise noise
further. For the entire service life
of the vehicle.
Servicing.
Long service intervals of fer
clear advantages. For you: lower
costs and saved time. For the
environment: the use of fewer
consumables and replacement
parts. For full details of service
intervals, please refer to the
separate price list.
Fuel economy and recycling.
At Porsche, a fundamental aspect
of design is intelligent light weight
construction. For both economical
and ecological reasons. This
forms the basis for low fuel con -
sumption values in conjunction
with outstanding performance.
It is economical thanks to the
high proportion of aluminium cast
alloys, plastics and super high-
strength sheet steel used. This
is substantially lighter and more
stable than conventional steel. In
the Cayman models approximately
20 % of components are made
from light weight alloys. We use
only innovative and environmen -
tally friendly components,
and each material is labelled to
facilitate its separation for
recycling. Recycled plastics are
used where they meet exacting
technical requirements. In all, the
Cayman models are approximately
95 % recyclable. In addition, Porsche uses only
environmentally friendly water-
based paints. The Cayman is
absolutely free of asbestos, CFCs
and components manufactured
using CFCs. This is because,

here at Porsche, environmental
protection does not begin at
the end of a vehicle’s life. It starts
at the planning and development
stage.
Fuel.
The Cayman models are already
designed to operate on fuels with
an ethanol content of up to 10 %.
Ethanol has a positive impact on
the CO
2 balance since the plants
cultivated for the production of
this biofuel also absorb CO
2 from
the atmosphere.
The active carbon filter and
a special coating on the fuel tank
reduce the amount of hydrocar -
bons released from the fuel
system. All fuel lines are made of
aluminium, while vapour- carrying
lines are made from multi-layered
plastic.
