2016 Porsche Cayman GT4

On its release in 2015, the Porsche Cayman GT4 sold out twice over Down Under and after just one glance and a short drive it’s easy to understand why.

Porsche call the Cayman GT4 “the super GT with a distinctive mid-engine layout; the hero of weekends; the rebel of the racetrack”.

Borrowing the 911 GT3’s chassis and shoehorning a 3.8-litre 911 Carrera S derived powerplant into its mid-section with a unique induction system and manifolding, different engine mapping and new injectors the Cayman GT4 with its barking exhaust unites famous Porsche GT performance with the superb agility and cornering dynamics of a proven mid-engine concept.

With 283kW it’s far more powerful than the already rapid Cayman GTS (winner of Australia’s Best Driver’s Car motoring.com.au), its Auto Downshift Rev Matching is standard for the 6-speed manual, as is the sports exhaust system, the sound deadening material has been removed from the engine bay to save weight but also enhance the brass orchestra of engine noise coming from behind your head and there's even a smartphone app that comes with the $3,990 Sports Chrono option that can log lap times and other data.

The car offered is an as new 2016 Porsche Cayman GT4 ordered in brilliant Sapphire Blue Metallic on Black leather and Alcantara trim with its original 20” alloy wheels in platinum, travelled just 6,000 kilometres and optioned to extract the most out of what this thrilling package can offer.
