Cayman is a better platform 'would' be quicker than the 911 Carrera due to its better handling characteristics and power to weight, thus the reason porsche negated to fit an LSD to the cayman. Not good for company image when the little brother is quicker than big brother. Put a 997 driveline in a cayman and it would be the ultimate

yeppo very true..

for about $150k that a Cayman S costs i'd be lookin at other options, AMG or new M3 or possibly new GTR

IF someone offered me a Boxster S/Cayman S over any WRX, I'd take the Porsche.

If I had a choice of those two, it would defo be the Cayman S with an LSD fitted
