There are cars and then there is a Cayman
When shopping there are some cars that you mull over hoping you won't second guess the decision, and then there some where the decision is made within 30 seconds of turning the key and dropping it into gear. This is one of those. With the sharp snarl of lighting up the 6-cylinders that share the mid-chassis location giving perfect balance, you know this is a drivers' car. Spartan but comfortable, the interior is well laid out and gadget free. Lots of leg and head room, and excellent views without blind spots. Until you've driven a Porsche, you'll not appreciate the torque that makes the 6-speed transmission more than enough to zing to 60 mph in under 5 seconds, and brakes to stop as quick.
I've made it
Was about to purchase the 08 M3 but after doing the research and insurance projections, I went with the new Porsche 08 Cayman Design. I own #350 of 777 and everywhere I go it is a sure stunner. I always grew up loving the 911 but I must say this car has done it for me, and although it may not put up 911 numbers it is the most practical for an everyday car weekend driving enthusiast. The exhaust is so sweet and the comfort of the interior is awesome. I am 5/9" and have driven passenger as tall as 6'3" and they all are in awe at that space and the drive. This car is a keeper and I can only see it appreciating in value.
Cayman S PDK & Sports Chrono
We stopped by a Porsche dealership to test drive the 911 S. My wife saw the Cayman S, and she wanted to test drive it as well. We ended up with the mid-engine Cayman S. Best decision I've made.
The Age of realization.
Now an octogenarian, I have sold my Porsche Cayman as I can no longer satisfy the 25 year old in me via an 80 plus years old framework. I disposed of my trusted BMW motorcycle at around the same time. I have owned a Ferrari, a couple of Porsche cars and an array of nippy vehicles. Driving recently, a texting girl in a Fiesta ran into my lane and I was lucky enough to hit the median and hold control. But I was shocked as never before so I now have a Cadillac sedan, slower but nonetheless less capable of speed. I recommend this Porsche as one of the best I have driven. My speed addiction lasted a very long time but fortunately, wisdom finally overcoming slower reaction via age now compels me to wish younger drivers the great times I had with some very special cars, this Cayman being one of them.

Awesome
I love this car. I had a BMW before, but the Cayman is a true sports car. I have had the car for 3 months and have already had 5 people stop me at read lights or the gas station to tell me how awesome the car looks.
