He is a real reptile! It has something of the Boxster and the iconic 911, though it's not one of them. This is the so-called middle ground, and the S version is the perfect choice for those who want to start their Porsche adventure for real.

His name is Caiman, and given his personality, he has a lot in common with a crocodile. Even if you order it in the cool color Speed ​​Yellow. As in the case of the Porsche, in addition to the poisonous yellow bodywork, we can almost freely paint other parts of the bodywork. Following this trail, first of all, you should arm yourself with unknown layers of understanding the price list of additional options.

Ready? Note: Expect €4157 if you want the side and center air vents, air intakes, mirror mounts, door handles and trim on both sides, as well as the air vents and trim strips painted to match the car's color. Agree, with such an absurdly high amount, paying a surcharge of euros for yellow seat belts sounds like a tip!

Porsche is merciless, ordering itself to pay 88 euros even for a leather key case with the brand emblem. On the other hand, a stock car without expensive extras is just as fast and provides the driver with a nirvana of driving pleasure.

Its guarantor is a centrally located engine lying right behind the back, ideal weight distribution on both axles, rear-wheel drive only and even intuitive steering. Its operation seems to contradict the theory that machines are not intelligent. The one in the Porsche Cayman, besides her, also has a soul. He communicates with the driver through a small round "protruding" element, depending on the market, on the left or right side of the dashboard.

This is a three-spoke sports steering wheel, the rim of which, in this case, is covered with non-slip Alcantara. In a car like the Cayman, you should only take it in the correct position, with your thumbs on the outside. Given the wild potential of the German reptile, this is an extremely important question. Just like getting into the right position in an electrically adjustable comfortable chair.

The central six-cylinder heart of the Cayman S, without the aid of any afterburners, has a displacement of 3436 cc. cm develops a power of 3 hp. With a weight hovering in the region of 320 kg and using "launch control" in "Sport +" mode, it accelerates the sports coupe to 1400 km / h in less than five seconds without any problems. Six strokes of the hands, then on the tachometer they pressed the alarm clock on the right side, we already have 100 km / h. The next few seconds, with gas to the floor, cheerfully blurs the landscape and, with a growing exhaust roar, gently “circle” the Cayman around the track, other German cars “block” up to 160 km / h, while bringing us closer to the speed zones characteristic of very fast cars.

Direct injection of fuel supplied to the combustion chambers at a pressure of up to 120 bar ensures not only environmental friendliness, but above all optimal use of torque. In order to have a lot of it in the lower engine speed ranges and so that no one complains about its lack in the upper registers, the “yellow franc” also has the Vario Cam variable valve timing system patented by Porsche.

Whether you're a jaded dentist or lawyer wearing a pink Ralph Laurent pullover for the weekend, or perhaps a performance-oriented "street racer", it's worth spending €3610 on a shiny ZF PDK suitcase. Its first six gears have a sporty gear ratio. The seventh, longer one, serves to save fuel. Strange as it may sound for Porsche, the car justifies the hopes placed on it and, with a quiet ride, consumes an average of ten liters per hundred kilometers!

This does not affect the speed and intuitiveness of the PDK, which is currently the most efficient mechanism of its type on the market - end, period! Oh, and don't forget to purchase the optional Sport Chrono package for 1502 euros. Only then does the PDK offer additional features such as "Launch Control" and a shift strategy system. The operation of the transmission then resembles the "medium throttle" sports shifting technique, temporarily increasing maximum torque by 30 Nm just before engaging the next gear.

The central engine position increases rear axle load, making the Cayman one of the best traction vehicles available for sale today. The name of this model is by no means exaggerated. The agile and fastest attacking crocodile is the Cayman in the world of Porsche. The PSM system, which responds wonderfully to delays, does not spoil the fun when cornering, as signals from the wheels about impending understeer remain in his memory for a long time. Until you overdo it or just dare to check how long Porsche obeys your orders until the last moment. As a last resort, you can count on a brute interruption of the power transmission by the electronics.

Turning off Porsche Save Me completely and playing drifting in anything less than a truck stop in the Caymans is as safe as stepping into a puddle full of the Cayman Islands hoping they're all asleep.

Adults of this species range in size from one and a half to 4,5 meters. Cayman S, whose length is 4347 mm, can safely be called an adult Porsche. It disgusts me when I hear opinions that he and his Boxster twin brother are cars for people who can't afford to buy a 911. It's like if someone said about Kylie Minogue, Madonna or your short girlfriend, that you with them only in order to justify the occupied (supposedly inferior) places in the front rows of a cinema or theater.

In my opinion, the Cayman, with its slim body, is such a neat car that even as an avid fan of topless cars, I could safely skip buying the Boxster. As long as you're not bloated fat, the relatively narrow backs of the standard seats provide the perfect support for your back. The driving comfort is so good that, like 95% of cars with the Porsche logo, the Cayman S can be treated like a car for everyday driving, not relying on luck before driving through speed bumps and looking for lost body parts. in the rearview mirror after passing them.

Unlike conventional hatchbacks, the Cayman has not one, but two trunks. If you don't play golf, don't worry. They will also go with your purchases, with all your t-shirts and trousers. Moreover, you do not have to crush them and shove them in the corners anymore. The largest compartments of this Porsche can accommodate two or even three travel bags.

They will definitely come in handy, because the Cayman S is a car in which the more you drive, the more you don’t want to get out of it. Is it worth spending 77 or even 983 euros on a test block?

Well, if I had this money and I wanted to increase it, then I lost the second day on the stock exchange, in the casino, or simply lost, for the rest of my life I would have spat in my beard that I didn’t buy Cayman S. Maybe there is better Porsche. Perhaps one of them is my dream Carrera S. It will certainly be much more difficult to find those that, fighting for the championship of the best sports coupe, will give the driver more pleasure than the Cayman S.
