CaymanS on the streets of LA

[Adam]

I just got done reading about the car in the latest Autoweek(Cayman S). Porsche claims a top speed of 171mph and a 0-62mph time of 5.3 sec. These figures seem a tad conservative(particularly the 0-62 time seeing that a 987 S will do 0-60 in 5 flat). Strangely enough, the Cayman S weighs 11lbs more than a 987 Boxster S. They attributed this somewhat to the large rear hatch with the big plate of glass. Also, the Cayman S has the 3.4L engine so the car is probably beefed up more in certain places.
