Again we get the shaft...
... by our beloved manufacturer.
The new Cayman is the most underpowered sports car by Porsche.
Even the base Boxster beats it.
Let me explain.
The new Boxster has a displacement of 2.7 liters out of which they extract 265 HP. That's 98.1 HP/L,. which is decent.
The 2013 Boxster S has the same displacement of 3.4 liters as the Carrera, yet they only extract 315 HP. That's a measly 92.6 HP/L.
The new Cayman has a displacement of 2.9 liters out of which they extract 265 HP. Same as the 2.7 liter Boxster - Weird! That's 91.4 HP/L.
The new Cayman S has a displacement of 3.4 liters out of which they extract 320 HP. That's 94.1 HP/L.
The new Cayman R has a displacement of 3.4 liters out of which they extract 330 HP. That's 97.0 HP/L.
The new Carrera has a displacement of 3.4 liters out of which they extract 350 HP. That's 102.3 HP/L.
The new Carrera S has a displacement of 3.8 liters out of which they extract 400 HP. That's 105.0 HP/L.
The new Carrera 4 has a displacement of 3.6 liters out of which they extract 345 HP. That's 96.0 HP/L.
The new Carrera 4 S has a displacement of 3.8 liters out of which they extract 385 HP. That's 101.0 HP/L.
The new Carrera GTS has a displacement of 3.8 liters out of which they extract 408 HP. That's 107.0 HP/L.
The new Carrera Turbo has a displacement of 3.8 liters out of which they extract 500 HP. That's 132.0 HP/L (but it's not normally aspirated).
The new Carrera Turbo S has a displacement of 3.8 liters out of which they extract 530 HP. That's 139 HP/L (but it's not normally aspirated).
The new Panamera has a displacement of 3.6 liters out of which they extract 300 HP. That's 83.33 HP/L (but it's a sedan).
The new Panamera S has a displacement of 4.8 liters out of which they extract 400 HP. That's 83.33 HP/L (but it's a sedan).
The new Panamera GTS has a displacement of 4.8 liters out of which they extract 430 HP. That's 90.0 HP/L (but it's a sedan).
The new Panamera Turbo has a displacement of 4.8 liters out of which they extract 500 HP. That's 104.0 HP/L (but it's blown sedan).
The new Panamera Turbo S has a displacement of 4.8 liters out of which they extract 550 HP. That's 114.6 HP/L (but it's blown sedan).
The new Cayenne has a displacement of 3.6 liters out of which they extract 300 HP. That's 83.33 HP/L (but it's a truck).
The new Cayenne S has a displacement of 4.8 liters out of which they extract 400 HP. That's 83.33 HP/L (but it's a truck).
The new CAyenneTurbo has a displacement of 4.8 liters out of which they extract 500 HP. That's 104.0 HP/L (but it's blown truck).
Again, they de-tune the 3.4 on the Boxster S so it doesn't outperform the 911.
They put the same engine in both, yet on the 911 they produce 350 HP while in the Boxster S only 315 HP.
When is Porsche going to understand that many of us just will not purchase a 911 because we like the Boxster concept?
Are you listening, PORSCHE???????
You make me spend extra $$$ when uyou could very easily just offer the Boxster GTS with the 911 engine in place.
BTW, if you do produce it, I'll expect my Royalties.
Happy Porsche-ing
