2013 Porsche Cayman S Thrashed - /CHRIS HARRIS ON CARS

Just purchased my dream car. I had my heart set on a 911 but all things considered I went with a 2014 Cayman S and I couldn't be happier. Absolutely LOVE IT!

[@UTubeSL]

[@terryvandermerwe6496]

calling the cayman a coxster is the most ignorant comment ever. Less weight, more power, stiffer suspension, completly different car. Agree with you all the way matey

[@ashman0071]

Chris Harris does an awesome job driving cars to their limit. If you love the exterior styling of the Porsche Cayman, listen to the man who designed it in this video - kzbin.info/www/bejne/j6rGYoipo6mkj7c

[@Spazza42]

Whilst I respect Chris Harris, I find him dull as a person. When Clarkson is on point and focusing on delivering solid content, there’s no one better.... There’s no way Chris could deliver that Rally history piece as well as Clarkson did on the Grand Tour. No way.

[@thefilmandmusic]

I’ve got a 987s ... I went to Silverstone and one of the Porsche guys took me on a couple of laps with him driving.. it was unbelievable, I had no idea what the car was capable of until a proper driver drove it... What a car.. manual ..

[@cr4zym3x1c4n]

Just drove a 718 gt4 yesterday and I can’t believe a machine like this stays so planted on the road even when you try hard to break it loose, it’s like a magnet on the road no matter how tight the turn is, keep moving! Well done Porsche, I see why everyone needs one in their life

[@Resist_Oppression]

Facts. The 718 is an amazing machine. Just got out of the mountains with about 20 911s and 718s. The 718s ate those roads up and never broke traction. And stayed completely flat.

[@goodshoes07]

Chris has just confirmed. No r8. No f type. No gtr. Cayman s here I come!!

[@SmeekPeek]

Have to agree. Been looking at the options aswell. The f type V6 S sounds lovely but it's just too heavy. GTR.. Mehh... Will hopefully switch to this in 2018 :)

[@goodshoes07]

Justin Walters wow it's been a year since I posted on here! As my picture suggests I have gone with an Audi R8 v8 and may I add it is a fantastic car with a tubi exhaust (epic) and manual gear box. The f type quickly lost ground on its competition in my eyes for reasons you mentioned. I wanted something a bit more driver focused. I decided against the Cayman s as I really wanted the gts (gt4 would be nice :D) which was out of my price range. I also couldn't deny a nice big NA V8 before I possibly join the forced induction crew (997 turbo manual transmission).

[@lastmiles]

I really wanted to buy a Corvette and walked into not one, but three dealerships. In one of them I was quite literally shown a Camaro and then shown the door. On another I was allowed to look at a brochure, at the salesmans desk. I walked into a Porsche dealership with two weeks of beard, old jeans and a t-shirt and drove half a dozen cars. Bought one. It was so easy and the service has been great. GM just does not have the infrastructure to sell or service their awesome Corvette. Sad but true.

[@ambitionsskyyyy]

Ed Owen hey Ed, how you getting on with the new one?

[@critic3001]

Recently I was browsing around a Porsche dealership in a dreamstate where I saw 5 Caymans in 5 different colours. The 3 that stood out the most to me were the Sapphire Blue, Agate Grey and Rhodium Silver, with light Pebble Grey interiors. Out of those 3 it would be between the Sapphire Blue and Rhodium Silver which both show the Cayman's lines really well without being too in yer face, but they're way too expensive. A new, (almost fully loaded), Cayman is £65-£70K ($109-$117K.) Lovely looking car though, and if I was in the market for a small 2 seater sportscar it would be a very tough choice between the Cayman S and the Jaguar F Type Coupe, which is as equally gorgeous in the metal.

[@therealbajan522]

Loving this Cayman a lot, Porsche did a bang up job keep it up and the Cayman will drive the obsolete 911 extinct (Porsche is terrified of this reality but as long as the Cayman exists they know one day this reality will come to fruition), The Majority of Young and new generation buyers will not buy the 911 for its heritage or really care about its heritage or classic look, They will simply to buy the Porsche that looks and drives the best That car is the Cayman.

[@lubicazatkova2942]

It seems to be so....Right

[@stu4181]

Yep older generations badge snobbery keep the 911 going, the best car Porsche makes now (mainstream) is the new 4.0GTS cayman/boxster

[@lostboys8297]

@@stu4181 Not going to argue the point as a Boxster S owner but there is a market for the more GT oriented 911 and it does have a back seat to store a few more easy to grab essentials while touring or commuting. Maybe even a pup or two. I see a market for both cars and not a pissing match between them. Porsche never wanted these cars to compete with each other. They were kind enough to build them both for us to enjoy. I'm looking to get a Cayman S because I just like the way they look. But I love the top down experience in the Boxster. I think that is the hardest decision for me.

[@stu4181]

GS Riders of Velocity Cycles. Yes re reading my comment it was a bit more flippant than my usual ones. I honestly believe Porsche has held the cayman/boxster back for years as it knows it’s the better sports car. The 911 ok is a better GT but surely there are better options for a GT car either a panamera so you have some useable rear seats or another manufacturer maybe an m5 if you can stomach the depreciation. ( a member of the car club I’m in reported getting a 6 month old m5 comp 3k miles on it for 60k which seems great value for that much car compared to a 911 c4 ? Understand the boxster vs cayman dilemma I had it recently myself, the ease of cleaning a hard top and the slightly sharper chassis won out for me. I have just come out of an original z4 though so had done the soft top thing recently. So That could be a factor.... A friend taking me out through tunnels in a 981 GTS cayman got me into Porsche’s in the first place!

[@bradjacobs1844]

[@BChan1991]

Just get pdk, suspension, & brakes. Or take it fully stock, no options, manual trans... I'm sure its good with no options

[@capz3217]

Honestly, I was never a big Porsche fan, but I rented a standard Boxster with manual transmission (mainly because it was the only sporty car to rent nearby) for a weekend and I my only complain was indeed the steering feel. It was precise and everything but somehow the steering in my good old 323i feels more alive. Yes, I would love to buy something more hardcore one day, but then I probably wouldn't want to take a car like an Elise on a long trip to the alps, where I had to use motorways and drive in bad weather conditions. So, as I favour coupés over convertibles, I really can't think of anything that would compare to a Cayman on the current market. Especially since the looks are just right.

Yup,the way the car looks. I went to a porsche dealer intending to swap my Elise for a gen 2 cayman. The money didn't add up so I decided to sell the Elise to put down on a mortgage. Anyhow I'm digressing, I saw the new cayman in the flesh and omg what a gorgeous looking car. In a couple of year time after I've been hiring cars every now and then I'll have the mortgage sorted and will be buying one of these once they start to come down in price. Gorgeous. Amazing.

No. I was kicked out of my last job in the middle east and have been unemployed for 4 months. I have a 2008 cooper S with JCW kit fitted. I went from a SLK350 to new elise to 2008 TTS and now the mini. The mini in most respects is the better car. cheap to run, practical, and relatively fast. I dont think I would have got the Porsche anyway. Its a car for £100k per year plus salary poseurs. A gorgeous looking car. That doesnt warrant its price tag. If money were no object yeah sure the car is a beaut. If you dont mind burning cash that is.....if I end up in a decent paid job then ill be looking at 350Z NISMO

[@Caveman2085]

I don't agree with MrC7 regarding Porsche, but he is right that the Vette has a lot of trickle-down features from the C6R program. Most of the tweaks made to the C6 over its run come from this program, and if you read the white paper on the C7 this holds true as well (even little things like radiator placement). Also, 72hp/L is pretty mega for a pushrod engine; just like NA vs. turbos, one has to adjust their expectations based on configuration. Power to weight is where pushrods impress.
