Better than a couple of Cherries, this ride turns alot of heads and gets alot of thumbs up. It's amazing how much attention this car gets !!!
"GOZ FAST" gets a new tag......"NOTA G8R"
The Cayman Prayer
The eyes see things in an instant that took decades to evolve. The new Cayman and Cayman S are the embodiment of beliefs long held in esteem by the engineers of Porsche—ideas first developed in mid-engine racing machines such as the 550 Coupe from 1953 and the 904 Carrera GTS from 1964.
From its sweeping front shoulders to its roofline arc and sloping rear hatch, every line of the Cayman leverages the accomplishments of its predecessors—sports cars victorious on racetracks from Le Mans to Sebring and Laguna Seca. Just as with these racing forebears, the Cayman and Cayman S find inspiration in dynamic engineering.
Asymmetric headlights set in the Cayman’s curving shoulders serve to reinterpret a familiar focal point of contemporary Porsche design. Arranged beneath them is a large cross-section of air intakes, hinting at the car’s powerful capabilities. Within the two outer openings are rounded fog- and side-light units.
As your eyes travel from the fenders to a narrowed midsection, a host of unmistakable shapes come into view: the unbroken curve of the arcing roofline. The precise cut of the door. And the dramatic upward surge of the lower window edge to the rear of the door. Like the wind, your gaze naturally flows to the side intake that feeds air into the strategically placed engine bay. Each of the twin intakes consists of three vertically divided sections, which optimizes airflow to the engine. Their unique form and aerodynamically advanced function are the result of more than 700 hours of wind-tunnel development time. And more than 50 years of accelerated learning on racetracks around the world—the ultimate design studio for any Porsche.
Even at a complete standstill, the Cayman’s seductively shaped rear wheel arches and wide rear track reveal a flare for the kind of highly spirited performance that engages all of your senses. Its wide hips provide ample space for boldly emphatic taillights in back and signature wheels endowed with high-performance tires that rivet all four corners to the pavement. A biplane spoiler that automatically extends at speeds above 75 mph provides still greater adhesion by generating extra downforce that contributes to a top track speed of 171 mph for the Cayman S and 160 mph for the Cayman (manual transmission). A less dynamic, but no less rewarding, feature is the large rear hatch. Its top-hinged lid offers convenient access to 9.2 cubic feet of generous storage space, ensuring that no road trip in your Porsche Cayman need be cut short.

The Cayman instrument cluster integrates new technologies within a time-honored shape. The large, round instruments are, in keeping with established Porsche tradition, easy to read at a glance. The Cayman S dials have an aluminum color finish with crisp, white backlit illumination at night. A permanent reminder that you are driving a Porsche, the familiar instrument shroud with semi-transparent grille helps focus the eyes front and center, where a large tachometer tracks the engine’s revs.
Digital readouts complement the usual speedometer, tachometer and odometer functions, allowing you to view computer-generated information, ranging from average fuel consumption and average speed to remaining fuel range, audio information and more.

** PLENTY OF LUGGAGE ROOM IN BOTH FRONT
& REAR HATCH
Extensive underbody paneling helps smooth the flow of air that passes beneath the car, keeping the front end grounded at speed. A tapered front trunk lid enhances downforce even further, contributing to an impressively low drag coefficient of 0.29, while raked headlamps and wheel arches present a virtually seamless surface to the wind.
For the ultimate audio experience, the Cayman and Cayman S can be equipped with an optional Porsche Bose Surround Sound System, developed jointly by Porsche and Bose engineers.
The Bose approach to acoustic design is very similar to the design philosophy of a Porsche: Engineer each component to the highest standards of performance, then integrate them in such a way that the whole becomes greater than the sum of its parts. Thousands of measurements from every conceivable angle were used to determine the precise placement of each component for countering road, wind and engine noise.
Ten perfectly placed speakers arepowered by a seven-channel digital amplifier and active equalization that matches sound to the unique acoustics of the Cayman interior.
The Bose system uses independent channels to generate a push-button panorama of space and sound. The extraordinary sense of depth is increased further by patented Bose Signal Processing and a Centerpoint® technology that can split stereo recordings into five separate channels.
A fiber optic network beneath the dashboard integrates 5 x 25-watt linear amps and a single 100-watt switching unit with sparkling signal quality, while a second switching amp in the active subwoofer offers an additional 100 watts of power.
The system’s dynamic loudness technology actively compensates for the reduced sensitivity of the human ear at lower frequencies by enhancing low-volume sounds that go unnoticed with other systems.
At speed, the Bose system helps ensure that you never miss a beat. AudioPilot® Noise Compensation Technology automatically adjusts tone and volume based on speed and ambient noise in the cockpit. The result is highly accurate and consistent sound with virtually no need for manual adjustments. Like the Porsche Cayman, it’s wired for the highest levels of performance.
