Is the Porsche Cayman a good investment?
981 GT4 (Manual, 2015–2016)
The thesis
The 981 GT4 is the first Cayman to receive Porsche's GT treatment and the last mid-engined, naturally aspirated, manual six-cylinder Porsche below 911 money. It borrows the 991.1 Carrera S's 3.8L flat-six (385hp) and pairs it with a six-speed manual the purists demanded. Prices have corrected from the £100k+ speculation bubble at launch back toward £55–65k, offering accessible entry to GT pedigree that will tighten as the 718 GT4 RS premium fades and collectors realise this was the sweet spot.
