<p class="MsoBlockText" style="MARGIN: 0in 112.25pt 7.5pt -0.75pt">Aggressively and if necessary bitingly. Those are the most important character characteristics of the Kaimans belonging to the family of the alligators. Besides it is fast, extremely agile and adapts changing conditions very fast. Cayman S, then is called of Porsche closed variant of the Boxster. Those has to offer however more than only a firm roof on that already admitted Cabrio basis.[/quote][/quote]

The meeting with a crocodile is always exciting. Whether in the zoo or in free game course - the strong, muskelbepackte reptile does not leave a doubt about the Potenzial resting in it. Also our poison-yellow Cayman arouses immediately this impression. Flat ducked it stands before us, the reciprocal Kiemen is widened and the attack-merry eyes sparkles us cunningly against. The lip is well known, but starting from the A-column is now everything different. Particularly saliently and strong the rear wheel housings curve. By these pronounced muscles one recognizes immediately: here strength is brought on the road. A further innovation at the tail: The spoilers of the Boxster driving out with 120 km/h by a slotted wing in such a way specified one replaced.[/quote][/quote][/quote]

Still the engine hums quietly, but fast the noise window blind increases to infernalisch beautiful roaring. A sound, which makes each music plant redundant. After 5.4 seconds can be achieved the 100 km/h, only 6.3 seconds later the 160er mark could fall. Up to 275km/h are possible. But the Cayman S actually prefers another terrain: Circle, as many as possible. And it takes in impressing way. With highest precision the driver cannot steer the vehicle point-exactly around each corner, the direct steering element leaves open desires, likewise that manual 6-Gang transmission knackig which can be switched

<p style="MARGIN-LEFT: -0.75pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 268.85pt">The chassis is based on that of the Boxster, was coordinated however more sportily and more tautly. This is possible, since the Cayman is developed on the essential structure of the Cabrios, by which firm roof however a clearly higher rigidity possesses. As a result of the installation of the engine before the rear axle (central engine) arises centrically and deeply lying emphasis, to which the Cayman owes its Agilities.[/quote]
<p style="MARGIN-LEFT: -0.75pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 268.85pt">[/quote]The result is outstanding: On the one hand mediate themselves the Cayman a direct contact belonged to the road like it for a genuine sports car. But even driving errors forgives it sovereign. The Porsche FR holds back itself pleasantly for a long time. For the driver arrange it a safe and at the same time stresses sporty driving feeling. The perfect combination, in order to go and intact back come on curve hunt.[/quote]

<p style="MARGIN-LEFT: -0.75pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 268.85pt">Also the 3.4 liters double-piston engine is based on the aggregate of the Boxster. But exactly like the chassis also the drive was revised: Cylinder heads, camshafts and crankcases originate from that 3.6 liters of 911 Carrera engine. Other components were adapted accordingly. This force cure causes an increase in output around 15PS. thus has the 1,415 kg easy Cayman S 295 HP. The maximum torque is with 340 Newton meters, which is available between 4.400 and 6.000 revolutions per minute impressively. The strength of a 6-Gang transmission and/or that is transferred 2,575 euro expensive 5-Gang Tiptronic system.[/quote]

<p style="MARGIN-LEFT: -0.75pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 268.85pt">The favorite place of each Porsche fan is natural on the left side of the cockpit. Here opposite the Boxster not too much changed, materials and processing is high quality. During full equipment quite many switches on the center console, whose goal-safe operation probably needs something acclimatizing time while driving, are.[/quote]
<p style="MARGIN-LEFT: -0.75pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 268.85pt">Place for two is sufficiently present, the seats can well on the needs of the passengers be adapted. The all-round visibility is well, only the broad C-column handicapped in right bends the view toward cycle track and gehsteig. If one looks to the rear, then one sees the most salient innovation of the Cayman S: The large rear flap with integrated windowpane. Far opening it releases the view of the split trunk lined with carpet. Here liters luggage can be accommodated up to 260 - even Snowboards are to find place here. Together with the trunk under the front hood so altogether 410 liters of load volume can be used.

<p style="MARGIN-LEFT: -0.75pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 268.85pt">Large reptiles are rare in Europe. Who would like to call an attained full growth Kaimanen its own, which must invest at least 58,529 euro. This base price can be extended playing simply by some thousand euro: Bi-xenon-headlight, ceramic(s) brakes, all-electric sport seats, navigation system, metal IC lacquer finish, electronically adjustable absorber system (PASM) and from the 911er well-known sport Chrono package. The accessory catalog is more than 40 sides strongly.[/quote][/quote]
<p style="MARGIN-LEFT: -0.75pt; MARGIN-RIGHT: 268.85pt">[/quote][/quote]For an entrance price of less than 60.000 euro the fan receives a sports car, which leaves nearly no desires open. Perfect handling, outstanding processing in the interior and a breath-robbing Design make the Cayman S an extremely interesting new species on the species-rich German automobile market. One may be strained, becomes main the new one in which district wildern. Even the 911 Carrera must probably adjust itself to a new competitor.
But no fear - Kaimane look dangerously and are very fast, nourish themselves however mainly of insects, crustaceans and fish.[/quote][/quote]
