Porsche 987 Cayman R Manual

January 9th, 2018

Introduced in 2010, the Porsche 987 Cayman R made its world debut at the Los Angeles Auto Show. The Cayman R is based on a 2009 Cayman S but with a few tweaks. It features the Porsche OEM Aerokit that was first introduced in 2007 as a factory option, 19 inch lightweight wheels inherited from the Boxster Spyder, lighter aluminium doors from the (997) 911 GT3, lighter fiberglass bucket seats with carbon fibre backing from the (997) 911 GT2, and with the removal of the radio, storage compartments, air-conditioning, and door handles, the Cayman R weighs in at 54.8 kilograms less than a Cayman S. The Cayman R also received various cosmetic changes similar to ones seen on the earlier Cayman S Sport, such decals on the doors, instrument cover delete, gloss black painted mirrors (or silver if the exterior colour of the car was black), black model designation emblem on the boot lid, as well as gloss black painted wheels.

With the new passive sports suspensions, the Cayman R sits 10 mm (0.4 in) lower than a Cayman S equipped with PASM, or 20 mm (0.8 in) lower than one equipped with standard passive suspension. The engine is a 3.4-litre flat six Direct Fuel Injection DFI boxer engine that boasts 330 hp which combined with the 6 speed manual gearbox can achieve 0-60 mph in 4.7 and can reach the top speed of 180 mph or 174 mph with the PDK Transmission.
