There are few cars we like more than a Prosche 911. A vintage Ferrari would probably do it, or a Mk. IV Ford GT40, but good luck getting your hands on one of those that doesn’t also require the hiring of a 24-hours mechanic. So back to the 911 it is, or if you’re not a millionaire, the perfectly mid-spec Porsche Cayman S Black Edition. Adapted from its cousin, the Boxter S, Porsche’s Cayman S Black Edition packs a hefty 330 horses under the bonnet, as well as a six-speed manual or Porsche-Doppelkupplungsgetriebe (thankfully dubbed ‘PDK’) seven-speed double clutch transmission. Toting some suave 19-inch black wheels and monochrome black treatment on the exterior and interior, even at $67,500, with only 500 due for production, they’re bound to be snapped up very fast indeed.
