Car Cave does not have dealer or doc fees!The 2007 Porsche Cayman S is often described as the car Porsche almost didn't want you to have. The Cayman S remains one of the most rewarding sports cars of its era, a pure expression of Porsche's engineering when steering was still hydraulic and the flat-six still naturally aspirated.By locking in a fixed rear hatch carried from Porsche's 'Hardtop Boxster' experiment, Porsche unlocked an entirely new aerodynamic canvas, borrowing airflow lessons from the halo Carrera GT. At the N?rburgring, detuned prototypes were lapping on the heels of the 997 Carrera. Engineers even joked that giving it Carrera power would make the 911 obsolete. The final result was a sleek, mid-engine coupe with nearly perfect balance, serious braking power, and luggage space front and rear.The 3.4L flat-six (M97.21) engine produces 295 horsepower and 251 lb-ft of torque, enough to hustle the Cayman S from 0-60 mph in just 4.9 seconds. Revving freely past 7,000 rpm, the engine delivers a linear surge that begs drivers to keep it in the sweet spot, right above 4,000 rpm. On a back road, the Cayman S feels as if it were designed for one purpose: 'Pure Driving Enjoyment.'The Cayman S became a darling among enthusiasts because of how natural it feels to be behind the wheel:Balance: Near 45/55 weight distribution, without a pendulum effect like the 911.Steering: Hydraulic assistance gives crystal-clear feedback of road texture and camber.Braking: Borrowed Carrera brakes provide serious bite and fade resistance.Handling: Neutral and forgiving at the limit, rotating predictably without snap oversteer.Versatility: Two trunks (front and rear) make it more practical than a 911 while keeping the sports car focus intact.This vehicle carries not just the DNA of Porsche's 'Baby GT,' but is has also been the embodiment of 'Driven by Dreams' throughout its life. Purchased out of Hilton Head, SC, it was regularly serviced with its first two owners, one of whom was a BMW IMSA GT instructor who made sure the vehicle was set up properly. The third owner competed in New York and Florida before bringing the car home to Aiken following the Equestrian season.The paint and interior reflect the care and garage-kept conditions. It has been driven minimally, and was often reserved for special occasions as a date-night car. Always maintained, always cared for, and always kept indoors, this Cayman S represents enthusiast ownership at its best. Tasteful modifications enhance performance and preserve condition without straying from Porsche's driver-focused ethos.Features and UpgradesNumeric Racing short-throw shifter with Numeric Racing performance cablesSlotted and drilled brake rotorsFabspeed Motorsport Porsche 987 performance exhaust system19' premium Porsche wheelsEscort Passport 9500ci Laser and Radar with quick controlClear Bra protection filmFront splitter wrapped in carbon fiberYellow fog lampsComes with a Porsche Cayman car cover71,246 mi$800 tire allowance includedOn the road, it's stable and refined.
