2011 Porsche Cayman R

Upon its launch in September 2005, the Porsche Cayman redefined the concept of the mid-engined sports coupe, combining scintillating chassis dynamics with characteristically sporting levels of responsiveness from its flat-six engines. Now, with the introduction of the Cayman R, Porsche has further developed the car by reducing weight, increasing horsepower and raising agility and handling to new heights. The new model becomes the third version in the Cayman range, joining the Cayman and Cayman S.

Weighing 55 kg less than the equivalent Cayman S, and boasting the most horsepower available in a mid-engined Porsche, the 330 hp Porsche Cayman R has been created for one reason: pure, distilled driving dynamics. With its highly-tuned sports suspension and vigilant attention to weight savings, the new Cayman model offers a driving experience even more precise than that of the acclaimed Cayman S.

Tracing its lineage back to the famous mid-engined 904 coupes of the 1960s, the Porsche Cayman R celebrated its world premiere at the 2010 Los Angeles Auto Show on November 17, 2010.
