My 2016 Cayman GTS is an absolute joy to drive. While not the fastest car on the road, the handling and road feel are exceptional. Truly you are one with the car.

I purchased this car from Brumos and had the most positive experience ever buying a car. Delivery took about an hour. The quality of this car is outstanding, it handles like it is glued to the ground, and there is plenty of power to get you out of trouble immediately. Luggage space is impressive and long drives are comfortable. I got 29.2 mpg with the cruise control set to 80. I never thought I would be doing this I have become addicted to performance driving schools and events. Although this car is no dragster (275 hp vs 600+), it is unmatched by most cars in turns and is extremely well balanced. (thank you blue flag) If a driver can smoothly carry momentum they will be tough to hang with. After 9000 miles and over $30,000 in repairs and very long waits for parts (nothing seems to be stocked and takes a boat from Germany after being custom made - it is not unusual for the car to be in the shop for 3-5 months) I would say that after owning it for 2.5 years it has spent close to a year in the shop. Buy a Miata.

I’ve had my 2016 Cayman Base for 2 years now - the enjoyment of the driving experience never gets old and not to mention it is one of the best looking cars on the road.

Not a “Commoners” Sports Car

2016 Porsche Cayman S 2dr Coupe (3.4L 6cyl 6M)

I own a 2016 Cayman (981) S. It’s my daily commuter. For a serious sports car it rides moderately smooth but not as smooth and quiet as my Audi TT. But I didn’t buy it to be smooth and quiet. I bought it for performance and style. It fit the bill perfectly in both categories. While a Cayman S doesn’t have the straightline acceleration of a Chevy Corvette, the mid engine Cay will run circles around the “commoners” sport car. Recently a friend stated “My ZL1 Camaro will dust your Cayman in 1/4 mile”. To which I responded “Yes, but you will still be driving a Chevy and I will be driving a Porsche!” 🤣

Great handling, very responsive engine, more room than the 911, very close quarters inside but I knew that going in. Some of the climate controls don't work as I'd like; always turning on when the car is started even if it was off when the car was stopped, no way to just use the fan without it trying to match the temperature settings. Nav is less intuitive to use than a Garmin. I'd prefer less technology overall, less complexity. A design issue is that they use gravel on the roads here when there's ice and the brakes are susceptible to gravel getting stuck in them causing a scraping sound and possibly need an expensive fix by the dealer, so I find myself limiting my winter driving. But it's really fun to drive.
