2019 Porsche 718 Cayman T Experience https://goo.gl/MEVckk

As Porsche’s smallest and most affordable sports car, the 2019 Porsche 718 Cayman isn’t some watered-down VW wearing a fancy badge, it’s a genuine performance machine that in its most potent form can easily rival performance giants like the Chevrolet Corvette, Ford Mustang GT350 and even the Porsche 911. The 718 Cayman, and its muscular stablemates, the 718 Cayman S and Cayman GTS, employ a choice of powerful horizontally opposed turbocharged engines, near-perfect front-to-rear balance and an impressive suspension setup that makes the 718 Cayman as comfortable on a track as it is on the open road. Starting just under $60,000, the 718 Cayman’s price can quickly push north once options are added, but even the most stripped-down model will still thrill.

You'll Like This Car If...
While the 2019 Porsche 718 Cayman can’t outrun a top-of-the-line Corvette, Challenger Hellcat or Mustang GT350, it can certainly make quick work of them in the curves. And while the Nissan GT-R proves a worthy rival, it costs nearly twice as much.

You May Not Like This Car If...
If you need your performance car to growl like an old muscle car or achieve world-class zero-to-60-mph times, the 718 Cayman isn’t going to float your boat. For the money, you’ll get more from a loaded Chevrolet Camaro SS or Ford Mustang GT350.

What's New for 2019
For 2019, the 718 Cayman gains a new sport exhaust and some minor trim and color changes.

Driving It
Driving Impressions
When it comes to cornering, the mid-engine 718 Cayman, Cayman S and Cayman GTS are three of the world’s greatest performers. Quick and agile, the 718 Cayman demonstrates remarkable stability and balance, responding without hesitation to even the slightest driver input regardless if it’s during a feverish twisting uphill run, or a simple lane change on a freeway. As part of its rebirth, Porsche engineers improved on the 718 Cayman’s rigid core structure by widening the rear track, stiffening the damper settings and retuning the suspension to be more responsive during aggressive driving. The Cayman’s electromechanical steering is lifted directly from the 911 Turbo, while larger brakes all around deliver impressive stopping power. Those looking to push their 718 Cayman to the limit will want to opt for the multi-mode Porsche Active Suspension Management system that, on the Cayman S and GTS, offers a low-riding Sport-spec mode, as well as a revised Sport Chrono Package and Porsche Torque Vectoring.
