Is the Porsche Cayman R a good investment?
987.2 (2011–2012)
The thesis
The overlooked mid-engined pinnacle. 1,621 built globally, 220 UK cars. 330hp 3.4L flat-six, 55kg lighter than Cayman S, manual or PDK. Post-IMS facelift engine eliminates reliability concerns. Currently £40–55k; undervalued versus 911 market yet offers comparable driving purity. Last naturally aspirated, hydraulic-steered special before electrification. Positioned to appreciate as collectors rediscover analogue Porsche at accessible pricing.
