Default 997 turbo and Cayman being tested on Nurburgring

Both seem very nimble and properly quick.

thanks i'm really excited about both cars, i think even more about the Cayman than the 997Turbo...althoguh from the vid the rear of the cayman looks ALOT like a 911, maybe a bit less PHAT-ASS, but still alot like it...but ofcourse they prolly did that on purpose to disguise its real looks...i guess? :roll:

Put a proper engine in the Cayman/Boxster and it will blow the 911 off the road.

well the cayman is gonna have 295 hp, and from what i hear it'll be a pretty focused sports car, which will mean low weight...so who knows, it might very well beat a carrera or maybe even a carrera S around the track...lets hope so the more fast porsches the better

Nah, I don't think that is going to happen. I read somewhere that they weren't going to let the Cayman be able to beat a Carrera. I agree with that source because it would make very little business sense for them to do so.

both cars do look great. I can't wait to see the way they look without the disguises on though. Both looked very fast through those corners

The 911 turbo is to be widebody so it'll look even more muscular than the regular 911. And I heard its back was gonna resemble to the one of the 959.

And here is a possible look of the cayman. (thumbnail)
