The Cayman S has always been the volume seller in Porsche's mid-engine coupe lineup, and the 981-generation car earned that position honestly. Riding on the same all-new platform as the base Cayman, the S added a larger engine and a genuinely different character, positioning itself as the enthusiast's default choice before the GTS and GT4 pushed the range further upmarket in later years.
Power comes from a 3.4-liter naturally aspirated flat-six making 325 hp and 273 lb-ft, a 5 hp bump over the outgoing 987-generation S despite Porsche's broader push toward smaller displacement elsewhere in the lineup. A 6-speed manual is standard, with a 7-speed PDK available. Porsche quotes 0 to 60 mph in 4.7 seconds with the manual, 4.5 with PDK and Sport Chrono, and a 175 mph top speed, figures that held up well against contemporary rivals costing considerably more.
The S came standard with larger brakes and wider wheels than the base Cayman, along with PASM adaptive suspension available as an option rather than the base car's fixed setup. Shared underpinnings with the 991-generation 911 gave the chassis a level of rigidity and poise that reviewers consistently praised, with many calling it the best-handling car in the segment regardless of price. For buyers who wanted the full naturally aspirated flat-six experience without going all the way to GTS or GT4 money, the 981 Cayman S remains the sweet spot most enthusiasts point to from this generation.
