Porsche Cayman GT4 officially unveiled with 385 PS [video]



Debuts in Geneva


Porsche has officially unveiled the Cayman GT4.




Set to debut at the Geneva Motor Show, the car is being described as a "clear statement that Porsche will continue to promote radical two-door sports cars in the future."




Starting with the exterior, the Cayman GT4 has an aggressive front fascia with a front splitter and mesh grille inserts. Moving further back, we can see sportier side scoops, a larger rear spoiler and a fixed rear wing. The model also has a center-mounted dual exhaust system, a 30mm reduced ride height and high-performance brakes from the 911 GT3.




The cabin largely carries over but comes equipped with leather and Alcantara sport seats as well as a sport steering wheel.




Power is provided by a 3.8-liter flat-six engine that develops 385 PS (283 kW). It is connected to a six-speed manual transmission that enables the car to accelerate from 0-100 km/h in 4.4 seconds before hitting a top speed of 295 km/h (183 km/h). Furthermore, Porsche says the model lapped the Nürburgring Nordschleife in 7 minutes and 40 seconds.




If that's not impressive enough, the Cayman GT4 can be equipped with a variety of options including carbon ceramic brakes, carbon fiber reinforced plastic seats and a special Sport Chrono Package with a unique Track Precision app - among other things.




The Cayman GT4 is currently available to order and German pricing starts at €85,779 (including VAT).  U.S. pricing starts at $84,600 - excluding a $995 destination charge - and the first American deliveries are slated for July.
