A few months after the Cayman S coupe hit dealerships in January 2006, Porsche unveiled a base Cayman. Both cars are based on Porsche's soft-top Boxster, one of the brand's most affordable models. Aimed at sports car enthusiasts, the Cayman S has a 295-horsepower flat-six, while the Cayman uses a smaller 245-hp engine. Competitors include the BMW Z4 coupe and Mercedes-Benz SLK-Class. There are no significant changes to the Cayman and Cayman S for the 2008 model year, but a special edition is available that offers a monochromatic appearance package.  Read More
