2011 Porsche Cayman R

Introduced in 2011, the Porsche Cayman R represented the most focused and lightweight version of the 987-generation Cayman. Developed with an emphasis on reducing weight and sharpening driver engagement, the Cayman R featured a 55kg weight saving over the Cayman S through the use of lightweight aluminium doors, reduced sound insulation, lightweight wheels and a number of detail revisions. Ride height was lowered by 20mm, while suspension and steering were recalibrated to deliver even greater precision and agility.

Power comes from Porsche's naturally aspirated 3.4-litre flat-six engine, producing 330 bhp and driving the rear wheels through either a six-speed manual gearbox or Porsche's seven-speed PDK dual-clutch transmission. Performance is complemented by the Sport Chrono Package, while a limited-slip differential, Porsche Torque Vectoring and revised suspension geometry combined to make the Cayman R one of the finest handling road cars of its era. Produced for just a short period, it remains one of the most sought-after modern Porsche driver's cars.

Supplied new by Porsche Centre Glasgow in June 2011, this UK-supplied Cayman R is presented in the iconic combination of Guards Red over a Black leather and Alcantara interior. Equipped with the seven-speed PDK transmission, it is a particularly desirable example, specified with the optional carbon fibre folding bucket seats.

Factory specification continues with Sport Chrono Package, fully automatic climate control, rear ParkAssist, Bi-Xenon headlights with Dynamic Cornering Lights, Alcantara SportDesign steering wheel, CDR-30 audio system, universal audio interface, mobile phone preparation, floor mats, headlamp cleaning system covers finished in a contrasting exterior colour and wheels finished in Black.

The car is accompanied by a full service history, having most recently received a major service at Weissach UK in February 2025, followed by a PDK transmission oil service carried out by Bahnsport Ltd in October 2025. It has also had cruise control retrofitted by Porsche Centre Wilmslow adding an extra layer of usability on longer journeys.

Combining sought-after factory options and comprehensive maintenance history, this Cayman R represents an excellent opportunity to acquire one of Porsche's most engaging modern driver's cars. Contact us now for more information or to arrange a viewing.
