11 The new Cayman and the Cayman S Model range combining a six-speed manual gearbox with Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM see page 52). Five-speed Tiptronic S, offering both manual and automatic gearshifts, is also available as an option. The standard wheels have a 17-inch diameter and attractive dual-spoke design. Clearly visible behind them are the four-piston fixed brake calipers in monobloc aluminium with black anodised finish. All four discs are vented and cross-drilled, enabling better performance in wet weather conditions and lower unsprung weight. Other distinctive features on the new Cayman include black lip spoilers at the front of the car and a centrally mounted, single-tube tailpipe. Accompanying it all is the familiar sound of the Porsche flatsix engine. The interior of the car is an elegant arrangement of smooth and clearly defined surfaces. These are augmented by highlights in Volcano Grey on the dashboard and gear console surround. Genuine leather trim can be found on the steering wheel, gear lever, handbrake lever and door handle facings. On entering the car, the first thing to catch your eye is the Cayman logo on the outer door-sill guard. The second is the stylish instrument cluster with classic black instrument dials. The instrument shroud unites all three instruments into a single visual unit. The new Cayman. Sport and style in every detail. At Porsche, we have our own theory of evolution. Only the best engineering survives. The new Cayman. Designed entirely around the driver, the new Cayman is a contemporary interpretation of a classic Porsche concept. The six-cylinder boxer engine has a 2.7-litre displacement generating 180 kw (245 bhp) at 6,500 rpm. Thanks to VarioCam Plus (see page 39), the maximum torque output of 273 Nm is available between 4,600 and 6,000 rpm. The mid-engined layout is a crucial factor in the near perfect front/ rear weight distribution. It also enhances the car s rear-end traction, enabling 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in as little as 6.1 seconds. Maximum speed in appropriate track conditions is 258 km/h (160 mph). The second key factor when it comes to performance is, of course, aerodynamics. Honed in the wind tunnel, the new Cayman has a drag coefficient of just Power is transmitted with precision to the road through a five-speed manual gearbox. An optional Sport package is also available, 24 25

12 The new Cayman and the Cayman S Model range All good design is inspired by nature. Where efficiency is the key to performance. design. In keeping with its higher performance capability, the Cayman S comes with 18-inch wheels as standard. The generous internal diameter accommodates a standard braking system with internally vented and cross-drilled discs which are larger than those on the Cayman. The discs are combined with fourpiston monobloc aluminium fixed calipers featuring a red paint finish unique to the Cayman S. As an optional alternative to the standard braking system, there s the ultra-high performance Porsche Ceramic Composite Brake (PCCB see page 62). As you would expect, the interior of the car is exclusively designed around the driver. Every material exudes elegance and sporting style. The instrument dials have an aluminium-coloured background which is tastefully matched to the Aluminium Look trim on the gear console surround and dashboard. The standard interior includes a genuine leather finish on the steering wheel, gear lever, handbrake lever, door handle facings and storage compartment lids on the doors and centre console. As a finishing touch, there s a Cayman S logo on each of the outer door-sill guards. Equally attractive are the car s lengthy service intervals. Not only do they minimise the cost of ownership, they also keep your car longer on the road. The Cayman S. A fundamental principle of Porsche engineering is the search for efficient performance. In the Cayman S, the six-cylinder boxer engine develops 217 kw (295 bhp) from a 3.4-litre displacement. Maximum torque of 340 Nm is available between 4,400 and 6,000 rpm. VarioCam Plus (see page 39) helps to increase torque at lower engine speeds and optimise top-end power. The results? An immediate response to throttle inputs, 0 to 100 km/h (62 mph) in as little as 5.4 seconds, and a top speed of 275 km/h (171 mph). Working with the engine to achieve that performance is a highly refined aerodynamic package. Indeed, the Cayman S has a drag coefficient of just 0.29 (with manual gearbox; Tiptronic S: 0.30). Power and torque are applied with precision through a shortthrow six-speed manual gearbox. Tiptronic S is available as an option, offering fully automatic or manual gearshifts via rocker-type controls on the steering wheel. Externally, the Cayman S differs from the Cayman in its colourcoded lip spoilers at the front of the car and dual-tube tailpipe 26 27

This attribute the character of The power is accompanied by a sound experience that is only VarioCam Plus engine. In both Cayman models, each car can only be measured possible in a mid-engined car.

15 The new Cayman and the Cayman S Drive The variable valve system generates additional torque at lower engine speeds. Other benefits include greater top-end power, better fuel economy and lower exhaust emissions. Fuel injection and ignition are centrally controlled by the Motronic ME7.8 engine management system. Power is applied with control and precision by means of an electronically operated throttle. The engine sound, so rich and distinctive, is also instantly Porsche. Cayman 32 33

17 The new Cayman and the Cayman S Drive Engine management system with electronic throttle. The Motronic ME7.8 engine management system is the primary source of control for all engine-related systems and processes, e.g., ignition and fuel supply. It is an essential prerequisite for enhanced performance in all operating conditions. The electronic throttle is not only more precise, it can modulate the volume of incoming air to compensate for sudden load transfer (e.g., when lifting off the throttle before braking). Electronic engine management ensures better power delivery from a standing start and a smoother revlimiter action. It also coordinates the various sub-systems within the standard Porsche Stability Management (PSM), e.g., anti-slip regulation (ASR) and the automatic brake differential (ABD). Other important functions include coordination and control of the optional Tiptronic S transmission, the oxygen sensors in the exhaust, variable valve timing (VarioCam Plus) and cylinder-specific knock control. Cayman S Input data Used to regulate/control Integrated dry-sump lubrication. This proprietary Porsche technology ensures consistent lubrication in even the most extreme high-speed corners. Oil is extracted from each of the cylinder heads by a dedicated scavenge pump. The oil return system features narrow-section lines which de-foam the oil before it is collected in the integral sump. A third pump then feeds the oil back to the lubrication points and the cycle begins once more. A Oil-level indicator. Both Cayman models have an electronic oil-level indicator as part of the on-board computer system. The reading is so precise that a conventional dipstick is not required. Engine cooling. Both flat-six engines have a cross-flow cooling system with all coolant channels cast in the block. With no external hoses Coolant is supplied separately to each individual cylinder, so it never arrives pre-warmed. As well as maintaining a consistent engine temperature, this means the valves are much less susceptible to wear. Important benefits include greater engine reliability, less risk of knocking, better fuel economy, lower emissions and reduced mechanical noise.

29 The new Cayman and the Cayman S Safety Braking system. Both the Cayman and Cayman S are exceptionally quick under acceleration. Even more impressive is the speed of response from the standard braking system. Several times more powerful than the flat-six engine, the brakes are crucial to the overall performance of each car. All four brake calipers have a four-piston monobloc aluminium construction. Key characteristics include excellent rigidity, compact dimensions and a very modest contribution to unsprung weight. The fast and positive pedal response is eagerly assisted by a powerful vacuum brake booster. The brakes are cooled using a special ventilation system which channels air from the front of the car to every part of each assembly. This arrangement ensures consistently high levels of performance and durability, particularly during heavy use. The internally vented discs on the new Cayman measure 298 mm in diameter at the front of the car and 299 mm at the rear. On the Cayman S, the front diameter is 318 mm. On both models, the discs are cross-drilled to improve wet-weather response and minimise unsprung weight. The calipers on the new Cayman have a black anodised finish, while those on the Cayman S are painted red. Standard brake unit (Cayman) Standard brake unit (Cayman S) Cayman 60 61

30 The new Cayman and the Cayman S Safety The key advantage of PCCB is its ultra-lightweight construction. Compared with conventional metal discs, it offers a remarkable weight saving of approximately 50%. As well as enhancing performance and fuel economy, this represents an enormous reduction in both unsprung and rotating mass important factors when it comes to handling, agility and comfort.

31 The new Cayman and the Cayman S Safety Passive safety. Both Cayman models easily comply with all statutory requirements in respect of frontal, side, diagonal, rear impact and rollover protection. The bodyshell structure contains a highly resilient passenger cell offering exceptional crash protection. At the front of the car, the cell is protected by a patented system of longitudinal and transverse members (1). In the event of an accident, energy is absorbed and distributed by the front-end structure, thereby minimising cell deformation. Additional features include a bulkhead cross-member (2) made from super high-strength steel. This element is designed to absorb impact forces from the longitudinal members and thus protect both front footwells. The upper section of each door features additional reinforcements (3) which enhance the rigidity of the car. This upper load path (4) is used to channel energy into the side of the car and thus provide additional protection for the passenger cell.
