Porsche Cayman S
While easily recognizable as a member of the Porsche sports car family, the Cayman S has its own distinctive look. Among its unique styling features are its dynamic new coupe silhouette, aerodynamic upper windshield sill, curvaceous rear fenders, fog lamps integrated into the front air intakes, exclusively designed side air intakes, automatically extending rear spoiler, and newly styled dual sport tailpipes. Beneath the new model’s distinguishing hatchback is a rear storage area twice the size (9.2 cu. ft.) of that found in the Boxster.
The Cayman S’s muscular 3.4-liter , flat-six cylinder engine propels
the car from 0 to 60 mph in a quick 5.1 seconds and to a top track
speed of an impressive 171 mph. The engine is equipped with the same
VarioCam Plus variable valve timing system as found on the 2005 911
Carrera. It allows the engine to produce its maximum torque of 255 ft.
lbs. between 4,000 and 6,000 rpm.
This engine power is transmitted through the Boxster S’s standard
six-speed manual transmission that has been enhanced for the Cayman S
with shortened and more precise shift travel. Offered as an option,
the five-speed Tiptronic S automatic transmission system has been
tuned specifically for the new model, incorporating unique electronic
and hydraulic control maps.
Handling and safety are enhanced with the fitting of 18-inch wheels
and tires and the Porsche Stability Management (PSM) system as
standard equipment. The Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM)
system, which allows the driver to select between the comfort of a
grand touring car and the track-ready precision of a genuine
high-performance sports car at the touch of a button, is available as
an option
