Porsche Cayman 718 (2016-present) Pros and Cons

Pros	Cons
Sublime to drive	Tuneless four-cylinder engines in more affordable models
GTS and GT4 have a tremendous six-cylinder engine	GT4 is too narrowly focused for some
Much more reliable than older Porsche models	Parts and servicing won't be cheap

Quick Summary

The Porsche 718 Cayman is a near flawless sports car with exceptional styling, usability, desirability and badge appeal. Its mid-engined layout delivers beautifully balanced handling with precise steering, strong grip and rock-solid body control. The range spans from entry-level 2.0-litre turbocharged four-cylinder models through to the raw, thrilling track-honed GT4 and GT4 RS variants. Whilst the four-cylinder engines lack the soulful character expected of a Porsche, they're flexible and torque-rich. The six-cylinder engines in the GTS 4.0, GT4 and GT4 RS are among the most evocative sports car power units available, delivering spine-tingling performance and a sensational soundtrack.

As sports cars go, the Cayman is remarkably usable and practical, with a wide range of seat and steering wheel adjustment, decent headroom for occupants, and surprisingly generous luggage space thanks to its mid-engined layout. A 130-litre frunk and 275-litre hatchback boot mean you can pack for a two-week holiday. Build quality is excellent, residuals are strong, and the five-star driving experience makes every penny feel justified. All versions feature six-speed manual gearboxes as standard, with seven-speed PDK twin-clutch units available on all variants.

Best for: Drivers seeking an exceptional real-world performance car, weekend enthusiasts, track day enthusiasts, and those wanting their first Porsche with everyday usability.

Not ideal for: Budget-conscious buyers, those requiring spacious family transport, or drivers who prioritise engine character over efficiency in entry-level models.


Comparison vs Key Rivals



The Verdict

You should buy the Cayman if: You're seeking an exceptional real-world performance car, a weekend enthusiast or track day toy, or looking for your first Porsche with everyday usability and practicality.

Consider alternatives if: You're budget-conscious, require spacious family transport, or prioritise engine character over efficiency in entry-level models.

Competitive Position: The Porsche Cayman 718 stands as one of the best real-world performance cars on sale today, delivering supreme capability and enormous enjoyment. With its sublime handling, delicious balance and limitless poise, it outperforms rivals like the BMW M2 Competition, Toyota GR Supra and Alpine A110 in driving dynamics and overall refinement. Whilst some may find the tuneless four-cylinder engines in lower-spec models intolerable, the majority of buyers will appreciate their flexible, torque-rich performance. The high-revving six-cylinder engines in the GTS 4.0, GT4 and GT4 RS are among the most evocative sports car power units in the sub-£100,000 price category. Strong build quality, excellent residuals and surprising practicality make the 718 Cayman the complete mid-engined sports car package.
