©2013 Porsche Cars North America, Inc. Porsche recommends seat belt usage and observance of all traffic laws at all times.

Always remember, what happens in the corners, stays in the corners.

Live by right-foot intuition. By a desire for exhilaration around every turn. By a newfound balance. Live by the Code of the Curve. Unlocked only by the track-bred prowess known as the new Porsche Cayman. With mid-engine dynamics, increased horsepower, a re-tuned Porsche Doppelkupplung (PDK) for lightning-fast shifting, a lighter body and acceleration from 0 to 60 in 5.4 seconds you'll never see a curve the same way again. Unlock the Code of the Curve with a test drive. Porsche. There is no substitute.

The new Porsche Cayman.
