The thesis

The 987.2 Cayman R is the lightweight, naturally aspirated swan song of the analogue mid-engine Porsche, with 325 hp, a proper six-speed manual, and no IMS or bore-scoring issues. Only 1,621 built globally and values have held remarkably firm; the market has favoured the stripped-out special over the S. Offers near-GT3 dynamics at a fraction of the price and strong Porsche liquidity.
