	Porsche Cayman - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Cayman S is produced alongside the Boxster by Valmet in Finland.
		Porsche has, in fact, donated to a Stuttgart zoo's caiman exhibit, because of the shared namesakes between the animal and the automobile.
		The Cayman S had its public launch in September 2005 at the Frankfurt Motor Show; the base Cayman was released in July 2006.

		Porsche introduces the 2006 Cayman S, a car that combines the athletic dynamics inherent in a mid-engine sports coupe with new levels of passenger compartment design and materials.
		Some may look at the 2006 Porsche Cayman S and be reminded of the Porsche 550 Coupe or the Porsche 904 Carrera GTS Coupe, legendary cars from earlier eras.
		For the Cayman S, those special features include an interior that combines luxury-class materials with the controls and support required by the enthusiast driver and spirited passenger, whether they are traveling across the country with a surprising amount of luggage or hustling down a winding stretch of road.

	Porsche TechArt Cayman S-Tuner Car - European Car Magazine
		You can almost imagine the excitement in the TechArt workshop when Porsche launched the Cayman S. Here was a car that was the most philosophically pure of all the contemporary Porsches but one that could not, for political reasons, better the 911.
		The GT is still instantly recognizable as a Porsche-that has always been the TechArt way-but it's noticeably lower than before and the oversized alloys exaggerate the curve of the wheel arches.
		The innate agility afforded by the Cayman's mid-engine configuration has also been unaffected by the conversion, although the last tenth of steering feel has been diluted by the bigger boots and also, perhaps, by the new steering wheel.

	Porsche Cayman S \| Roadtests \| The Australian
		The Cayman S is a new Porsche model between the Boxster roadster and the rear-engined 911 range.
		For now the Cayman S is a hybrid of 911 Carrera, Carrera S and Boxster S. The engine is based on the the Boxster S motor but adds 911 cylinder heads with the Variocam Plus system that alters both valve timing and lift (how much the valve opens).
		The one criticism of the standard 2.7-litre Porsche Boxster was a relative lack of mid-range torque.

		Porsche officials say the Cayman was built with high standards of practicality and functionality.
		While the lines are fairly similar, Porsche officials stress that Cayman's frame is stiffer and that performance is enhanced as a result.
		Porsche officials have targeted their demographic for the Cayman: young, urban types who are "social climbers" and "top guns," married and around 45 years old.

		Porsche will begin to produce the Cayman in August prior to its world debut at the Frankfurt motor show in September, and will pitch it as an out-and-out driver’s car, more focused than both the 911 and Boxster from which it is derived.
		The Cayman S derives its name from the smallest of crocodiles, the caiman, which is known to be swift and nimble.
		Porsche hopes to broaden the appeal of the Cayman S by giving it a hatch and a larger trunk than the Boxster S. Porsche said it named the car after the caiman, a species of small crocodilian known to be swift and nimble.

	2006 Porsche Cayman S - Road Test & Review - Automobile Magazine
		The 3.4-liter version of Porsche's M96 flat-six engine family from the Boxster and the 911 does duty here and is tweaked to deliver 295 hp and 255 lb-ft of torque, versus the 280 hp and 236 lb-ft in the Boxster S's 3.2-liter engine.
		Porsche's famed test driver and former World Rally champ Walter Röhrl gets the Cayman S around the Nürburgring's Nordschleife track in eight minutes, eleven seconds, which is four seconds faster than a published time for the base 911 Carrera, again with Röhrl driving.
		In general, the Cayman's brakes are identical to those of the Boxster, but Porsche modified the front dam to bring a bit more cooling air to the discs, and the ABS has been mildly tweaked.

	Porsche Cayman S - RSportsCars.com
		Porsche engineers found that while the Cayman S engine makes 15 more horsepower than the powerplant in the Boxster S, over the course of 100 kilometers (62 miles) traveled it uses only four-tenths of a pint more gasoline.
		The Cayman S is rated at approximately 19-mpg city and 27-mpg on the highway (12 liters/100 km city and 8 liters/100 km highway).
		To classify the Cayman S as merely the coupe version of the Boxster does disservice to both vehicles, each of which is unique with its own special characteristics.

		Cayman S has two separate luggage compartments: one in the rear access by the rear hatch, and the other in front under the hood.

	2006 Porsche Cayman S Reviews - ForbesAutos.com
		Porsche expects the Cayman will see more than 10,000 global sales in its first full-fiscal year on the market, of which 40% will come from the U.S. (40% of sales of other Porsche models come from the U.S.).
		The Cayman demonstrates Porsche's financial savvy, as it fills a gap in the company's lineup at minimal cost; it is based on the Boxster and not all-new.
		As a classic two-seat, mid-engined Porsche sports car, it is as safe as the Cayenne was risky, and the company is too conservative to build it if they weren't sure the demand was there.

	2006 Porsche Cayman S - First Look & Review - European Car Magazine
		Porsche told us the 295 bhp Cayman will be pitched between the 280 bhp, 3.2-liter Boxster S and the 325 bhp Carrera, sitting between them in both power and price.
		The Cayman also shares the Boxster's wheelbase and track dimensions, although at 171 inches, it is 12mm longer thanks to a longer rear overhang.
		That said, the more rigid hatchback Cayman does not need the reinforcements that the open Boxster does, so the extra metal and glass from its hatchback layout only add 11 pounds to the overall weight, and the Cayman S tips the scales at a reasonable 2,950 pounds.

	The Seattle Times: Motoring: Porsche's Cayman S is hot, even in slo-mo
		The brand-new 2006 Cayman S two-seat sports car had impressed me blasting down the highway and clinging to high-speed curves, but the moment it took my breath away came as I was stuck in traffic.
		You'd expect all those things from a Porsche, and the Cayman S provides them, but it is also graced with a shape that can stand alongside classics from the past and the Ferraris of today.
		The Cayman is immediately recognizable as a Porsche, but it's also unique; the first coupe Porsche has built that doesn't pale beside the company's iconic Porsche 911 Carrera.

		It is positioned and priced between the Porsche 911® Carrera® and Porsche Boxster S. While easily recognizable as a member of the Porsche sports car family, the Cayman S has its own distinctive look.
		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 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.

		Because of the mid-engine concept, the Cayman boasts two trunks, with a combined volume of 14.5 cubic feet (410 liters), highlighting the sport coupe’s supreme practicality.
		In addition to the two full-size occupant airbags, the Cayman is also fitted as standard equipment with the ingenious Porsche Side Impact Protection System (POSIP), which features both a chest and head airbag on each side of the vehicle, providing impressive protection in the event of a side collision.

		Porsche boasts that the Cayman S offers a full 14.4 cubic feet of luggage capacity, with 9.1 cubic feet beneath the large steel hatch in the rear.
		Surprisingly enough, the dimensional differences between the mid-engined Cayman S and the rear-engined 911 are equally slim, as the Cayman is 3.5 inches shorter in overall length, 0.3 inch narrower, and 0.2 inch lower in height.
		Porsche has gone to some lengths to give the Cayman S its own visual identity, but the details are esoteric at best.

	SouthCoastToday.com - 2006 Porsche Cayman S - May 24, 2006
		The test Cayman S had the ignition key to the left of the steering wheel, instead of on the right where it's found in most other cars.
		Porsche engineers started with the uplevel engine from the Boxster S and improved on it by expanding the displacement to 3.4 liters from 3.2 liters in the Boxster S. They added the 911 Carrera's cylinder heads and made sure to include Porsche's VarioCam Plus variable valve tuning.
		There's also the Cayman's rigid structure that affords a firm and stable, but not harshly stiff, ride, and a suspension borrowed from the Boxster is updated with more aggressive tuning of the springs, shock absorbers and stabilizer bars.

	2006 Porsche Cayman S First Drive
		Porsche adds a roof to the Boxster to create the Cayman S, a terrific new sports car thatâ€™s as practical as it is fun to drive.
		The new 2006 Porsche Cayman S straddles the asphalt between the smaller and somewhat effeminate Boxster and the costly, high-powered 911 Carrera.
		No, the Cayman S is not the most beautiful, nor the fastest, or even the most affordable Porsche in the stable, but in our measured opinion it is the most fun.

	2007 Porsche Cayman - Car News - Car and Driver - September 2006 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		Right after we’d finished the comparison test of the BMW Z4 M coupe and Porsche Cayman S, Porsche announced it will offer a base (non S) Cayman at $50,095 — a price that would have been closer to the $50,995 of the Z4 M coupe.
		Porsche claims a 0-to-60 time of 5.8 seconds for the ’07 two-seater and a top speed of 160 mph.
		Visually, this Cayman differs from the S version by its smaller brake rotors with fl instead of red calipers, 17-inch aluminum wheels (instead of 18s), a fl front-spoiler lip instead of a silver one, and a trapezoidal exhaust pipe.

		Porsche has expanded its model lineup in recent years, adding the Boxster roadster, the Cayenne sport utility, and the limited-production 200-mph Carrera GT supercar to dealer showrooms.
		The way we see it Porsche's major problem with its new Cayman S sports car is not selling it—we think this sweetheart will find a ready-and-willing audience—but in keeping the requisite distance between the new model and its icon, the 911.
		The fact of the matter is the beautifully balanced mid-engine Cayman S, derived from the Boxster, is so close to matching the 911 in overall performance that Porsche engineers likely struggled with making the Cayman S as good as it could be without upstaging the significantly more expensive flagship.
