The 2007 Porsche Cayman S (987) is a mid-engine sports car manufactured by Porsche.

It is a coupe based on the same 987 platform used for the Porsche Boxster and is fitted like its open-top counterpart with a 3.4L flat-six engine. It was manufactured until November 2011, at which point it was replaced by the second generation (981C) Cayman.

For the 2007 model year, the front splitter lips were changed from being silver, as on prior models, to being painted a body paint colour.

In 2009, the 981 Cayman was revised into the 987.2, with a facelift creating a slightly different exterior and the displacement of its engine was increased to 2.9-litre.

Games[]

Need for Speed: Shift[]

The Cayman S appears in Need for Speed: Shift as a tier 2 car

It has a 7.00 car rating, a price tag of $110,000, and is unlocked upon collecting 30 stars, but is not usable in Drift mode.

Since its engine is placed between the rear and front axles, the Cayman S has a subtle handling, which makes fast cornering possible. Its 3.2L flat-six engine doesn't produce acceleration times that are as good as cars with a higher power output but is still capable of high top speeds.

Need for Speed: Nitro[]

Stub - This article section needs expanding with relevant information.

 The Cayman S appears in Need for Speed: Nitro as a Class B car. It is rated 3 in speed, handling, and drifting; and 2 in both acceleration and strength.

Jawad, the top racer in Dubai, drives a Cayman S in all the location's Silver Cup race events except for the Drift Challenge, Time Attack, and Speed Trap events. Unlike his Roadster and Reventón, his Cayman S is outfitted with a custom body kit.

Jawad[]

Jawad's Cayman S can be unlocked as a collectible car for use in both Arcade Mode and Career Mode, once all stars are obtained in all Dubai Silver Cup events.

Shift 2: Unleashed[]

The Cayman S appears in Shift 2: Unleashed as a Modern Road vehicle, with a C 750 performance rating and 3.52 handling rating. Its price in the car lot is $84,200.

If the player swaps the engine with the 3.6L flat-six engine from the Porsche 911 GT2 (997), the Cayman S gets a high increase of power. Different to some cars, it won't lose grip and its brakes can cope with the power.

The Cayman 2007 appears in Need for Speed: Edge with an A class performance rating.
