The Appeal

Good as any Cayman is, it's the 987.2 that is widely regarded as the model's absolute 'sweet spot.' The Gen II fixed the engine-related issues of the original, yet retained the engaging hydraulic steering and flat six soundtrack that were lost with later versions.

So this 2011 car starts from a strong position. It adds 320bhp 'S' spec and a manual transmission to the mix, as well as a desirable 'double black' color scheme with embossed leather. Then there's the service history, which is impressive for a car of this age. There is a run of service stamps by main dealers and specialists like RPM, AMS and Revolution. The last service was in August 2025, since when the car has covered less than 2,500 miles. Other work includes over $3,000 of brake and suspension work, and coolant crossover pipes being replaced by AMS in 2023, a replacement clutch supplied by Design 911 in 2022 and tensioner, belts and brake fluid change in 2025 by AMS. The current MOT runs to May 2027.

The Cayman 987.2 feels like a nailed-on future classic. This well-specified, well-maintained car stands out.
