Porsche Cayman S Black Edition

Porsche-Cayman-S-Black-Edition

Porsche unveiled their latest special edition package, this time for the Cayman S, called the Cayman S Black Edition.  The special edition Porsche features a bit of power increase and special colors on the exterior and the interior and is limited to 500 units worldwide.

The Porsche Cayman S Black Edition sees an increase of 10 ponies from the 3.4 liter 6-cylinder boxer engine to a maximum 330 horsepower at 7,400 rpm.  The torque output remains the same at 273 pound-feet (370 Nm) at 4,750 rpm.  The small increase in power allows the Cayman S Black Edition to sprint to 62 mph in 5.1 seconds when equipped with a 6-speed manual transmission (0.1 seconds faster than the Cayman S).  The sprint to 62 mph can be achieved in 5.0 seconds with the addition of the optional PDK double-clutch automatic transmission.  But if you want to get to 62 mph even faster, 0.2 seconds faster, you should get the optional Sport Chrono package and activate the Launch Control.

The top speed is also increased, by 2 km/h, to 173 mph (279 km/h) with the manual transmission and 172 mph (277 km/h) with the PDK transmission.

Porsche-Cayman-S-Black-Edition-DashboardAs the name would suggest, the Black Edition comes in a black paint scheme on the outside and inside.  The car gets special 19” rims that are also painted black.  The headlights are also smoked black to complete the all-black look.  The interior gets black seats and a black dashboard with a small plank that has the words “Black Edition” and the serial number engraved.

Other standard equipment on the Porsche Cayman S Black Edition include LED daytime running lights, Xenon lights with dynamic cornering function, anti-glare interior and exterior mirrors, automatic climate control, and rain sensing wipers.  The prices start at €68,807 ($98,878 US) including VAT in Germany while in US; the price is more acceptable at $65,525 (€45,600).

I've been writing about cars for the last 8 years, but I've loved everything with an engine since I was a kid. I'll take the sound of high revving naturally aspirated engine over music, any day! Favorite Car: Porsche Cayman GT4
