2014 Porsche Cayman S: A bit more powerful, a lot better-looking
It was only a matter of time before Porsche got around to overhauling the Cayman coupe. After all, its platform-mate and sibling, the 2013 Boxster, has just been updated.
Like the 2013 Boxster, the new Cayman features larger and deeper side intakes. Both of those intakes are now functional -- the previous generation only breathed through one of its two.
The Cayman's wheels have been pushed out to its extreme corners, resulting in a wider stance and a longer wheelbase. Both dimensional increases should help the vehicle feel stabler and more planted.
One of the best changes to the new Cayman is also the subtlest. I love that Porsche has smoothed out the coupe's profile where the roofline meets the beltline.
The 2.7-liter, horizontally opposed base engine generates 275 horsepower -- as with the previous generation, this is exactly 10 horsepower more than the Boxster.
