The 981 Cayman (2013-2016) is Porsche's mid-engined coupe, built on an all-new aluminium-intensive platform with a longer wheelbase, electric power steering and a stiffer, lighter body than the 987. Offered with flat-six power from the 2.7 Cayman to the 3.8 GTS, plus the limited GT4, it delivers near-perfect chassis balance. It is widely regarded as one of the best-handling sports cars of its era.
The mid-engine layout gives balance and steering feel that even the 911 cannot match, and the naturally aspirated flat-six delivers a rare, high-revving character. The GT4 in particular carries genuine motorsport pedigree and is seen as a modern collectible, while the later GTS blends sharp dynamics with everyday usability.
