2010 Porsche Cayman

2010 Porsche Cayman 987.2 Coupe The Cayman S remains a delight to drive and is one of the few cars that really can deliver complete driving bliss. Those who think mid engine Porsches are not real Porsches clearly have never driven a Cayman S. The car delivers 90 percent, (if not more), of the joy one gets in a 911. The ride and handling balance has always been near perfect, and it's even better now, thanks to a retuned suspension. Car and Driver, July 2010 For consignment, a 2010 Porsche Cayman 987.2 coupe with a title verified 57,665 actual miles. This second generation Cayman benefits from things such as direct injection, LED lights, improved interior features and an overall facelift. Exterior Feasting our eyes on the profile of the car, it's clear that this car would slip through the wind with very little resistance while its shark like intake ducts on the side scoop in what they need for the engine. The Black paint shines with very few incursions and all the gloss of late model two stages. Up front, the gaping mouth gives way to straked grilles and headlights that are both set back and flush with the fenders. If you're a molecule of air flowing over the car, you'll ride the raked windshield, over the top, and follow the gentle slope down until a modest spoiler sends you on your way. Flush tail lights add color to the black palette and a single, center exit exhaust tip falls between the integrated diffusers. 18-inch wheels carry staggered tires with an early 2020 date code. A scratched ding on the hood is the only exterior imperfection we find. Interior The quality is evident as you swing the door open to reveal Sand Beige leather door panels, smartly designed with contoured actuators and carpeted lowers and integrated, almost invisible speakers. The leather adorns the bucket seats with the driver's side showing a wisp of usage but otherwise spotless, while the monochromatic tan interior continues on the steering wheel with contrasting nickel colored spokes and Stuttgart's finest coat of arms. Black faced gauges fit in a contoured cover and the center stack has a screen displaying the functions of the AM/FM/Multi-CD player followed by push button climate controls and a storage cubby. In the center console is the coveted shifter and of the 1,300 Cayman's sold in the U.S., only a fraction of them were manuals as globally, only 779 base Caymans received the joystick. The leather boot matches the surrounding plastic and the plush, quality carpet below. This same carpet cleanly lines the storage area under the hatch and the hatch itself has a handsome coverage of materials. Drivetrain The mid-mounted engine is a 2.9 liter flat 6 cylinder pumping out 265 horsepower and is mated to a 6-speed manual transmission that sends power to the rear axle and 3.875 gears. Undercarriage With all of the components towards the back, the front is occupied by aerodynamic belly pans and all present cleanly. The dual exhaust travels through original mufflers and then comes together to exit through a single pipe. Four wheel power disc brakes are on board and MacPherson struts make up the suspension front and rear. Drive-Ability We know there's another German manufacturer who coined the adage the ultimate driving machine but that's only because Porsche didn't trademark it first. The cozy cabin is a fantastic place from which to pilot this car which is responsive, quick, and nimble on the test loop and as a quality built machine, all functions operate as intended. While Classic Auto Mall represents that these functions were working at the time of our test drive, we cannot guarantee these functions will be working at the time of your purchase. As you read this, the Boxster and Cayman models are in their final days at Porsche. This is your opportunity to get what's regarded as one of the best driver's cars ever produced because after 2025, there will be no more produced by Porsche. What is already an uncommon car wil
