First new generation Cayman spyshots 5 Attachment(s) http://imgs.worldcarfans.com/2011/5/...0450691718.jpg Next-generation Porsche Cayman prototype sporting new features for the model From WCF: Next Porsche Cayman spied for the first time Here are the first full-body spy shots available to us of a next-generation Porsche Cayman prototype caught while out doing some hot-weather testing in Spain. Earlier shots had captured a series of mules testing but this time the prototype is the real thing. Unfortunately, our spy photographers could not get very close but with the help of a telephoto lens we do have the benefit of this first group of pictures here. The next-generation Cayman seen here shares some features with the current Boxster prototype and the new Cayman appears to have a lower back-end and a much larger rear window than the current mode |
yep. Itza Cayman. |
The roof line is WAY too bubbly in the back (too much like a 911), and what's up with that HUGE rear window? I like the new hips though. They looks more masculine. |
Rear hatch is horrible. Not a fan. It's starting to look like an MCoupe. |
interested to see what comes of this. |

I would guess at about 350bhp out of the same engine block as the current gen. Some rumors (from someone on ts mainly), it will be a turbo 4stroke engine; however I think this won't happen for a few very good reasons. • a turbo is too easy to tune to much higher hp, so it will too easily compete with the 911. • porsche only just recently designed this engine block for the cayman. why would they drop the development of it for something else after only 4 years later? |
You could be right, but I think possibly Porsche will offer two engines. There was a video released of a Boxster testing on the 'Ring about a month ago, and whatever was under the hood sounded turbocharged. Take a listen: YouTube - 2013 Porsche Boxster Spied Testing at the Ring You can almost hear a turbo muffling the engine and interrupting the rev sound. That could possibly mean that Boxster had this rumored flat 4 turbo. But then again, that could just be road noise and the car hitting the bumps, because behind the muffle sounds a flat 6 in that video. |
Sorry but they all look the same to me. Someone care to point out the differences? |
