Porsche has built a winner here. The handling is outstanding, the braking is more than adequate, the acceleration is plenty fast and the looks, well let's just say this is one drop dead sexy looking car. The overall package is excellent and the "fun factor" us through the roof.

If you hate the Prius, this is the metaphysical opposite. Fun versus Big Nurse. After seven years, I still love my Cayman S. The tuning done at Sharkwerks, i.e., Tubi exhaust, chipped onboard computer, carbon fiber interior components, and light-weight and oversized HRE alloy wheels, helps.

Easily the most enjoyment I've had driving. Tremendous value as well. Incredibly designed vehicle.

95% 911... 70% THE COST

Plain and simple…this is one awesome car. Great acceleration, lightweight, great handling and heart stopping top speed. The Cayman S is like a rollercoaster ride without leaving the ground. Will you get more with the 911S? Yes. Is it worth the extra 25-30K. I don’t think so.

I recently purchased a cayman S 09 and sold my bmw 3series. This Cayman is simply awesome. Its acceleration and handling is unlike any car I have ever driven. Additionally, the looks are superb. I just never get tired of looking at the car.
