Faster than ever and still brilliant to drive. But has the new Boxster compromised? We tell you


Yet despite the increased dimensions, the car weighs about the same as before and benefits from increased rigidity thanks to Porsche’s new MSB platform, with most of the structure and bodywork wrought in aluminium along with sections of high-strength steel added in for good measure. Should you desire more handling prowess, a whole suite of acronymed witchcraft is offered, such as PASM (Porsche Active Suspension Management), PTV (Porsche Torque Vectoring) and Rear Wheel Steering, all of which help to keep this large Porscheagile at all speeds. All this trickery is optimized on-the-go by Porsche’s 4D chassis management system.

Sit yourself inside the Cayman, and you'll find that this is one sports car that is easy to get comfortable in. It may be low slung, but the seats are comfortable and visibility all round is excellent. Materials used in the cabin are of high quality - what else would you expect from the Germans. That being said, the Boxster S we have in our company stable is starting to show signs or wear, even the plastic areas we hardly come into contact with are beginning to scratch off. No chance of a long term test with this Cayman though, so we wouldn't know how it's interior will stand the test of time.
