For Sale: 2007 Porsche Cayman in Morgantown, Pennsylvania

2007 Porsche Cayman S Coupe

"When you test a true sports car it's best to jump in with both feet and speak one's mind up front. Simply stated, the Boxster based Cayman is one heck of a good set of wheels. It's stylish, blending the best of the 911 and Boxster lines in a well proportioned body. It's also incredibly well balanced. Take a very stiff chassis, a dialed-in suspension, and a great set of Michelin tires and you have a pile of demons." From the Motoring video review.

For consignment, a 2007 Porsche Cayman S couple showing 106,919 miles, but the true miles are unknown. This example has a rebuilt engine and the IMS bearing solution which was installed in 2002.

Exterior
There's a body line seen in profile that starts at the headlights and flows back to become flared fenders over the rear wheels that fall lower than the hatch in back, a distinct feature that reveals the Boxster base, but also something entirely new. The intake ducts on the rear quarter panel follow the lines of the door gap, widening as they rise. A modest retracted spoiler hovers over center exit exhaust and all is surrounded by Midnight Blue Metallic paint contrasted by 19-inch multi-spoke wheels wrapped in Michelin low profile tires with a date code of mid 2020 on front and early 2022 in back. Imperfections include peeling of the seal around the Porsche emblem, a paint chip on the edge of the hood and once by the gravel guard, typical crackling of the guard, a deep scratch in the rear bumper cover and large scuff on the corner, rock chips up front, and lug nuts that would benefit from a coat of paint.

Interior
The door panels are bathed in gray leather with contoured door handles and carpeted lowers and both doors show some slight patina. Tall back leather bucket seats are in good shape with some minor compression of the driver's. Ode is paid to its 550 heritage in the font used on the three white faced gauges ahead of the taut steering wheel while the center stack has a fully integrated AM/FM/Multi-CD player and push button A/C panel. A leather boot wraps the well executed shifter while high quality gray carpet is found in the footwell, the back wall, and along the package tray and cargo area in back, all in decent shape. Our gray headliner is nice as is the clean front trunk.

Drivetrain
Planted midway is a 3.8 liter flat six cylinder, rebuilt with a Flat Innovations kit, fuel injected of course. It is mated to a 6-speed manual transmission with an LN Engineering IMS bearing solution installed in 2022, recorded at 97,000 miles. Power is sent to the rear where it is routed through 3.875 gears.

Undercarriage
Aerodynamic belly pans take up most of the underside where we find clean, driver quality condition, dry, (other than some residual oil on the pan), and showing not enough surface rust to mention. Dual exhaust flows through its original equipment system towards its exit via fused dual tips. Four wheel power disc brakes are on board and coil springs are front and rear augmented now by Bilstein PSS9 coil overs and Tarett Engineering lower control arms.

Drive-Ability
Ergonomically speaking, there aren't many cars that get it this right! You really do become one with the car and our only distraction is the steering column tilt function not locking into place. Meanwhile, the flat six provides fantastic power, the Michelins provide great grip, and the suspension does its job in keeping the car level around turns. The Porsche does everything well and all functions work as they should. 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.
