The forecast for the following pages:
an imminent storm.
It ’s not just about the drive
for individualit y or supreme
performance. Above all,
it ’s the indescribable intensit y
with which the Cayman models
express these t wo virtues. Uncompromising. Unyielding.
Completely unimpressionable,
but extremely impressive.

6,000 rpm. From a standing start,
the Cayman accelerates to 62 mph
(100 km/ h) in 5.8 seconds. With the
optional Porsche Doppel
kupplung
(PDK), this sprint takes just
5.7 seconds. Top speed is 165 mph
(265 km/ h) in conjunction with the
manual gearbox. Equally impressive,
however, is the 10 % reduction in 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 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
as standard are 17-inch wheels
with a star-shaped design, which
allows an eye-catching view of
of gravit y and thus a high degree
of agilit y and an extremely sport y
drive. The six-cylinder horizontally
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 the powerful brake system. And
the interior? The overall impression
is simply one of high qualit y. For
instance, the rims of all available
steering wheels are covered in
smooth -finish leather. The centre
console, finished in traditional
black, is equipped as standard
with the CDR-30 audio system
You should never doubt your own principles.

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

basis for the development of

spoiler painted in the vehicle’s
exterior colour, and t win

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.
