Cayman R VS Boxster Spyder - differences Hi guys, Recently my friend and I got a Cayman R and Boxster Spyder. We were just wondering what exacly was different between these 2 cars.. and often argues about them since my friend kept on showing off how his R is better than mine with those specs.. lol.. anyways.. Of course we knew the differnces with the roof ... but other than the look design, are there any differences with the engine (10hp differences), weight, suspensions, platforms .. etc ? please help ~ ^^ I'll post some pix up soon ~ |
Here are some things that I found that are mechanically different between the two.
|
Love them both! I was told the Cayman R has the same front control arms as the GT3. Carrera they are that light but I had no idea that light! I like them both even more now :) |

So quiet that in fact you can't tell us what these 'changes' are, right Carrera? As soon as you find out from your sources at the secret bunker under Weissach, please enlighten the rest of us what EXACTLY are the R's superior suspension changes over the Spyder's! We know they differ from the normal Cayman S...but the Spyders??? Saludos, z356 (Carmel). |

The world is a place full of wonder! |
While we're on the subject of the Boxster Spyder... YouTube - ‪Porsche Boxster Spyder - Testdrive | MYPO. | Porsche Zentrum Lübeck | ADAC FSZ Hansa‬‏ I wouldn't say the best Porsche ever, but the Boxster Spyder is perfect. No flaws whatsoever. |
I apologize Carrera. In fact, I was there at the bunker with Herr Jurgen when the information was released on the Cayman R...thus my earlier reports. Now that I am just back from Omaha Beach on a pilgrimage to our fallen heroes buried there, I am still shell shocked & my memory is failing me. To make sure I get all of this straight, I have ordered a MY2012 Spyder that should be produced in the last week of July (near end of production) and will be stateside in late August. Will report then. Saludos, Eduardo (Carmel) |
