Our take on this /// Verdict

The Porsche Cayman R PDK (2011) is a stellar example of Porsches prowess in crafting exceptional sports cars. This vehicle stands out with its precise handling, silky smooth engine, and an engaging transmission that makes every drive a joy. The Cayman Rs low curb weight and balanced design ensure it handles predictably at the limit, making it a drivers delight. The PDK double-clutch transmission is slick and efficient, whether youre cruising or pushing the car to its limits. While the brakes may not have the initial bite you expect, they inspire confidence once you get into them. Overall, the Cayman R is a bargain for the driving experience and special factor it offers, making it a keeper for any enthusiast.

Price

In India, the Porsche Cayman R PDK (2011) is a rare and highly sought-after vehicle, which can significantly impact its pricing. As a used car, the ex-showroom price can vary widely depending on the condition, mileage, and location. On average, you might expect to pay around 50-70 lakhs ex-showroom, but this can go up to 80 lakhs or more for a well-maintained, low-mileage model. The on-road price would include additional costs such as registration, insurance, and other local taxes, potentially adding another 10-20 lakhs to the total cost. Given its rarity and performance credentials, the Cayman R remains a valuable investment for serious car enthusiasts.

Latest Updates

Saturday, 22 September 2012 04:37 PM One of the notable aspects of the Cayman R PDK is its revised gear-shift strategy, which allows for more sporty gearing coordination. The transmission electronics react more quickly to the drivers input, enabling better acceleration out of bends and more direct control over power. This makes the car highly agile and responsive. I believe this transmission setup is a key factor in the Cayman Rs appeal.

Saturday, 22 September 2012 08:26 PM The Cayman R PDK features a three-spoke sports steering wheel with gear-shift paddles, allowing for manual control over the transmission. The paddles are a welcome addition, replacing the earlier push-button system. This setup enhances the driving experience, especially in sporty driving conditions. I think the paddles make a big difference in driver engagement.

Saturday, 22 September 2012 08:16 PM Despite its performance-oriented design, the Cayman R PDK has some practical considerations. For instance, the fixed-rate suspension can be too firm for rough roads, and the car lacks amenities like air conditioning and a radio. However, these sacrifices contribute to its lightweight and focused driving experience. I believe this trade-off is worth it for the driving thrill it offers.

Tuesday, 01 November 2011 02:59 PM In terms of market reception, the Cayman R PDK was well-received for its refined and focused driving experience. It was praised for its agility, precise steering, and strong traction. The car was seen as a more accessible and less risky alternative to the 911, thanks to its mid-engined layout. I think its a great option for those who want a pure driving experience.
