Summary

[edit]
Description Billed as the "definitive mid-engined coupé", Porsche's new lightweight Cayman R, stripped of 55kgs and fitted with a more powerful engine for even better performance. Priced from £51,731, the mid-engined coupé produces 330bhp, an increase of 10bhp from the 3.4-litre flat six-cylinder, direct fuel injection boxer engine. With a six-speed manual transmission, the Cayman R charges from a standstill to 62mph in five seconds, two-tenths of a second faster than the Cayman S. With the optional seven-speed dual-clutch PDK transmission and Sport Chrono package, says Porsche, the sprint is reduced to just 4.7 seconds.Top speed is increased by three mph to 175mph with the retuned engine, or 174mph with the PDK. According to the sportscar firm, the Cayman R has been created for just one reason; "pure, distilled driving dynamics", producing a driving experience "even more precise than that of the Cayman S." "The main objective in the concept and execution of the Cayman R was to improve the already energetic two-seater through a systematic reduction in weight, thereby increasing performance, driving dynamics and agility". The extra performance didn't come cost-free, however. Although weight savings were achieved through the use of lightweight components, the air-conditioning system and stereo were also removed and a slightly smaller 54-litre fuel tank was fitted. The R comes with a limited slip differential and lightweight 19in alloy wheels as standard. Also setting the R apart are the application of "Cayman Aerokit sports styling", fixed rear spoiler in contrasting colour and black-framed halogen headlights.
