Weekend Delight

2007 Porsche Cayman 2dr Coupe (2.7L 6cyl 5M)

I purchased the Cayman to replace our '05 SLK350 and drive it primarily on weekends. I test drove most of the competition as well as the Cayman S and 911 Cabriolet. For me, the Cayman has the perfect blend of style, performance, efficiency and value. Sure, there are times when I think I could use the extra hp but those times have been seldom. Although some will tell you that they prefer the more "classic" line of the 911, I think the Cayman is in a style class by itself. Just hand the key to any valet if you need confirmation. If you want a livable, fun to drive two seater, I don't think there is any car on the market that can match the new Cayman.

This is the first Porsche that I have fit into, barring the sunroofless GT3. I have been in a sports car-less funk since I sold my '95 Miata R-package. The Cayman is the perfect replacement. It is a comfortable daily commuter with absolutely brilliant handling and perfect suspension tuning. The 2.7 liter six engine is an absolute gem, very flexible and aurally pleasing. It is also very practical with both trunks and cabin storage.

Better Than My 2003 BMW M3

This is easily the best overall perfoming car that I have owned. It feels quicker than my BMW M3, except from 70 mph up. Its handling outshines all (for the money) except the Lotus Elise, but the build quality and sound from behind you more than make up for any performance difference. The ride quality allows for daily driving without punishment. Additionally, the manual transmission is wonderfully weighted and precise.

Best car I have driven

I previously had an SLK and a Z4 convertible. This 2 dr Cayman is so much more fun to drive. I feel like a million dollars whenever I get in it and have owned it for a year and I am not bored with it yet. I bought it used with low miles and would only trade it in if I was buying another Porsche.

I have only owned my 2007 Cayman S 6 speed for a few weeks but I felt compelled to write this review for others looking to purchase. I CAN NOT say long term if this car will be as reliable as they say but in the fist few weeks I CAN say is this is one of the most exhilarating cars I've driven besides my 1994 Dodge Viper RT/10. The 911 guys may call this and the Boxster the "Poor man's Porsche" but I can only imagine one would say this because they are upset at themselves for spending so much money on a 911 when the Cayman is, in many ways, a better car. I do not know how the regular Cayman would compare to my S model since I have not driven one to compare but I absolutely love every moment of driving this car. It is my daily driver other than during inclement weather I have a truck for. The fuel consumption is not bad and storage is quite surprising. Driving this car is not like driving anything else. Is truly is a drivers car and an experience I have yet to find with driving anything else. If you are scared to buy one of these cars because of the dreaded IMS bearing issue, DO YOUR RESEARCH and then decide. The 00-05 model year's were the most widely affected due to a thin single row bearing. The 06-08 had a single row bearing as well but it was a wider bearing like that of the pre 00 model years with the dual row bearing and has said to have a very low failure rate (Around 1%). I personally think this is one of the best sports for the price. It is a Porsche though so with that said, maintenance is not the cheapest so find a good Indy shop with a Porsche specialist. If you are considering one of these fine cars, go and test drive one. But don't do it without having funds available to purchase because you will want to take it home!!!
