Four years after the introduction of the Cayman S, the sportier version of the mid-engine sports coupe Porsche was refreshed.
It was even faster and could carry more cornering speed.

The facelifted version of the Cayman S offered a completely enhanced package. From the exterior to the interior, from the engine to the gearbox and suspension, it was reworked. It might be mistaken with a new model if the Porsche internal coding system wouldn’t be the same as on the 2005 Cayman S (987C).

At the front, a new pair of headlights were installed, with a bigger lens for the main beams and the stationary lamps. The fog-lights were installed upper and on the outer side of the side air-scoops from the apron. A reshaped, and smaller, front grille was installed. In the back, the taillights were completely different and featured all red-lights with LEDs. The exhaust was replaced with a twin-round unit, instead of the single, rectangular, unit as on the non-facelifted version.

Inside, the new infotainment unit with a 5” screen and MP3 compatible CD-player was featured as standard. As an option, a PCM (Porsche Communication Management) with a 6.5” touch-screen was installed for more options. The Bluetooth connectivity with the mobile phone was offered as an option for both versions.

The engine was kept at 3.4-liter displacement, but due to its new direct-fuel injection system, the power was increased by 25 hp over its non-facelifted version. It was paired with either a 6-speed manual or a 7-speed PDK (double-clutch) automatic gearbox.
