Future Collectible: Porsche Cayman GT4’s Rare Performance and Exclusivity
best bienes realtor As a definitive sports car company, Porsche has a lot of investment-attractive models in its portfolio. Cars that won exceptional races defined the segment and continued inspiring the organization’s legacy of generations of fans.
It is clear to those with an interest in auto investment what the classic Porsche legends are and what cars command the highest prices. But the question is, what are its future collectibles?
A recent addition to the available models is a small but very potent sports coupe that has all the right ingredients, a recognizable design, and that enraptures anybody lucky enough to sit behind the wheel.

This is the Cayman GT4, which is, at the moment, can be considered one of the most sound and savvy sports car investments.
Porsche Cayman GT4: Unraveling the Secrets Behind Its Investment Appeal
Precision Engineering
For years before the start of production, there was talk about a conspiracy and secret clash between Porsche engineers and the management of the company. Word in the automobile world was that the engineers wanted to give the Boxster/Cayman more power and engine straight from the 911, while management feared that the car would be too good and outperform the 911, which they couldn’t allow.

However, in 2015 the engineers won, and Porsche presented the Cayman GT4, a track-oriented, 911-powered sports car that has been collecting rave reviews ever since and has become one of the most sought-after driver’s cars on the markett.
Even though we cannot say if the rumors were true, it took Porsche a very long time to present the ultimate version of the Cayman, but when it finally did, the sports car world took notice.
Track-Oriented Performance
The 3.8-liter, flat-six engine from the 911 Carrera S was used, delivering 385 hp to the rear wheels over a precise six-speed manual (only transmission option).
The car featured different design details, a wider stance, and, most importantly, a whole lot of suspension components from the 911 GT3 RS, which gave the Cayman GT4 unmatched handling capabilities and cornering speeds.

All of a sudden, the 2015 Cayman GT4 managed to achieve a blisteringly fast 7:40 minutes Nürburgring lap time, beating many established supercars.
GT4’s Best Generations
Porsche fans considered that the GT4 version would not be back since, in 2016, Porsche presented a new generation of Boxster/Cayman duo called the Porsche 718.
The 718 Cayman GT4 was filled with 911 GT3 bits, suspension components, and a unique aero package resulting in improved performance, higher top speed, and even better lap times.
However, the company announced that GT4 would be making a comeback in 2019 using the same formula but with near every aspect of the car improved.
This time, Porsche continued to outdo themselves by using a larger, 4.0-liter, flat-six engine from the 911 GT3 that delivers over 400 hp, and offers the famous PDK transmission as an option.

However, Porsche was not done, and in late 2021, the company decided to put idle whispers to rest by introducing a unique and high quality sports car called Cayman GT4 RS.
Porsche fans were in disbelief that the company had decided to use the RS moniker, which was until then reserved only for top 911 models.
But the Cayman GT4 lived up to the name. Behind the driver was a 4.0-liter RS engine with a full 500 hp, an even more aggressive aero package, stiffer suspension, bigger brakes, and a unique exterior design.
The Cayman GT4 RS was so good that it shaved over 23 seconds from that already astonishing, Nürburgring time, frightening competitors and reaffirmed Porsche’s position at the top of the sports car world. The GT4 RS was delivered only with PDK automatic transmission in order to extract maximum performance from the engine.
Limited Production
Of course, such a dedicated machine had limited production, and only about 2,500 Cayman GT4 (981 generation) were made from 2015 to 2017.
Since the current (982 generation) is still being manufactured, the definitive production figures are unavailable, but one can expect the overall output to be similar.

Porsche announced that the new 718 models would be coming next year, so this is likely the last time we will see Cayman GT4 with a high-revving, petrol-burning, and naturally-aspirated motor.
