Perfect, no frills, driver's sports car. 2.7 liter flat six. 250 hp w/ 5-speed manual tranny. Sound like the specs of a 1973 911RS which now sells for at least a half-mil? Bought it seven years ago for $30K; just sold it for $20K w/ 36,000 on the odo. Hard to imagine a better deal for a buyer. Rock solid sports car with a good bit of snob appeal. Note: poor rating for headlights is based on significant fogging of headlight units even when the car was garaged 95% of time. Expected better of headlight units that cost $2K to replace. Fortunately, my indie mechanic was able to refinish them to new-looking for about $200

2007/8 Cayman after 10,000 miles

I am 6' and 220 lbs. Nice head/leg/cargo room. Have 11,000 miles on the car driving locally, and to and from CA from Fl. Comfortable long distance driver. Outstanding looks. Have been stopped several times by compliment givers. Handling is as though one were driving on rails. Acceleration is swift though not overpowering. Actual gas mileage is 23/27 so far. Have 18" wheels. Bose system has too much bass for my taste, and I have to dial the db down to negative numbers to get balanced sound. This is my first Porsche and I love it. . I highly recommend this car for what it is....an exhilarating driving experience every time. J.D. Powers #1 rating influenced my decision to buy. I'm glad I did
Obsession

My first Porsche, this speed yellow with black leather beauty is like having a Carrera or a Ferrari without the huge price tag. I really like the basic sport feel, almost like a vintage car, with not too much electronic stuff, and not so much glossy plastic trim. As a designer, this car really appeals to me from an aesthetic view. Compared to the Mercedes I was using for a daily driver, this is way more fun, and I love to make 90 degree turns going 45 mph. Now have about 18K miles. Sits in a nice large garage, like a sculpture. Driving a Porsche in Naples is about as good as it gets, even though we have one of the largest PCA memberships in the country. I highly recommend it. Good ego trip.
Great Sports Car

Fun to drive and plenty of power. I'm 6'2" and comfortable although the seat is all the way back. Still plenty of head room. Standard seats really hug you might be a little narrow for someone over 200 lbs. Tall passenger seat totally obscures the small window behind the door creating a blind spot. They can also hit and damage the headliner if not careful. Bose system has too much bass but a satisfactory adjustment can be made. The wheel size makes a huge difference in ride quality and the larger wheels will probably lead to more rattles with time. The used Caymans I drove with 17s felt sold and had little rattling. 18s were a little worse and 19s were much worse. I went with 18s for looks.
Great Car, but Overpriced

I wanted to test drive the new entry level Porsche. The Boxster S is the same price so it is a better deal. I liked the car, but it needs 50 more horses to really be worth the $55,000 price tag. The handling and shifter are the best. Compared to BMWs and the Corvette, which both cost same amount, this Cayman is way more fun to drive and it has better handling. But 245HP is way to weak for a $55,000 car. Porsche also needs to stop jacking people on the options which can easily add $10,000 - $20,00 more to the car's price. Skip the Cayman and get the Cayman S or 911. But that engine sounds sweet!
