Essentially a fixed-roof coupe version of the famed Boxster, the 2008 Porsche Cayman returns unchanged this year and continues to offer sensual styling, abundant power, and razor-sharp styling.
The Cayman boasts a 2.7 liter flat 6-cylinder engine producing 245 horsepower and 201 lb.-ft. of torque that motivates the car with authority. It’s mated to a crisp-shifting 6-speed manual transmission for pure performance or a Tiptronic S manumatic transmission that offers 5 shift patterns and steering-wheel push buttons for instant gear changes. The mid-engine, rear-wheel drive layout offers optimal balance and crisp handling through the curves.
Standard Porsche Stability Management uses a range of sensors and Automatic Brake Differential and Anti-Slip Regulation to maintain traction and stability during evasive maneuvers. The optional Sport Chrono Package offers selectable driving modes that tune the Cayman to satisfy your driving demands. The standard Porsche Stability Management system offers enhanced control and confidence in corners and extreme handling situations. Massive 4-wheel disc brakes with race-inspired monobloc calipers and an Anti-lock Braking System offer amazing stopping power and fade-resistant performance. Standard dual advanced airbags, seat-mounted thorax protection airbags, and head-protection curtain airbags offer excellent passenger protection in a collision.
Inside, the Cayman features standard automatic full climate control, an available BOSE® Surround Sound System and AM/FM Digital CD Player for amazing sound quality, and the standard Porsche Communication Management system, which integrates the stereo system, trip computer, and available GPS navigation system. The available Park Assist System uses ultrasonic sensors in the rear bumper to detect objects behind the vehicle.
As a desirable and exotic luxury coupe, the 2008 Porsche Cayman offers sublime mid-engine handling, an exhilarating engine note, and a svelte body shape.
