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.
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.
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.

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!!!

We have had this car for about a month. It is much faster than our '06 Boxster. The engine sounds great. We have an automatic, which makes it a bit of a gas hog, but it shifts quickly and rockets away from the line.
Fantastic Car!

In everyday driving the Cayman is civilized, comfortable, and easy to drive. When the traffic thins out and the road opens up, it takes on a whole different personality, gobbling up twists and turns with the engine roaring like a savage beast. After a month I still haven't really used the Bose sound system. The sound of the engine is even better music to my ears. Now that the break-in period is over, I can savor the sounds of the upper rpm range... sweeeet!

I just got a new 2007 Cayman S model. I am very happy with it overall. It is great looking, well built, and has a nice interior. It's also very quick. It drives like a sports car, meaning a firm, but not harsh ride. I went with the 19" wheels. Some options should be standard, but that's Porsche. Its gas mileage stinks, but that's to be expected. This car has great German engineering all around, even in the smallest details.
It just felt right

Ah, what a car. I tested several others - STi, 'Vette, 335i, 370Z. This is the only one that felt just right. Came from a '06 Miata so I didn't want a large car. This had the power, sound, handling, looks...everything. It's just right for me. Sometimes I just wish it had a backseat so I could share the experience w/ more than 1 other person at a time. I have the Carmon Red and it's a beauty but I'm actually surprised at the smiles I get. She definitely holds her own at track days as well of course. Yes, the cup holders seem rather delicate and not well placed - that's why I don't use them. The xenon headlights are very good and I'm happy w/ the stereo. Certified warranty is excellent too!

Driving the Cayman s brilliant. Even sitting in it you feel 50% better for being alive. Everything is to hand switchgear wise, plenty of seat adjustment, good visibility. The responsiveness of the engine when you are already cruising at 80 reminds you that its really going at half speed. It is so solid on the road that even with side winds doing high speeds. Long bends where previous cars would go light at speed are no problem at all. The only drawback so far are the chips from small stones on the bonnet - well you can't have everything. I bought the plastic trays for the front and rear storage as recommended by the local Porsche Club chairman. Roll on the Panamera : )
