I'm not sure I would say there is an "amazing difference" in handling between the two models. At least with my 987 BoxsterS, the handling is fantastic. I imagine you may need to be on the track to feel the benefits of the stiffer structure. I suggest driving both cars back to back and finding out for yourself.

Thanks Carl kinda what I found. Seems all I here is how much better the cayman handles but seem to be the almost same set up. So stiffer springs and larger sway bars.. Now i have some ammo Thanks to all

Does the Cayman come standard with strut braces...?? I see this came up in the thread No data in my little book here.
