Facit:

A clear victory for the Porsche Cayman S. In the dynamic Criteria leaves the revised central engine Porsche the SLK no chance. The better Suspension comfort, the alternatively open roof and the clearly lower price speak however for Mercedes. The reinrassigere sports car is the Porsche. By the new engine and the new transmission became the Cayman still more sharply, more porschiger. Briefly a car, which is worth nearly each sin.

The Cayman S humiliates the big 911 brothers,Z4 M coupe and cabrio so a very expected result.

Between these two i'd take the Cayman S no doubt but if it were the SLK55 then it's a much easier choice to make

I agree, Z4M is a much better match for the Cayman S. The cars tested here are so different that there will be more people having them both than choosing between them.

Gosh, we already knew the outcome before clicking on the link.

Hands down the Porsche is the better drivers car. That's no secret.

I smelled trouble when I saw the title. Not much more to say then humiliation. The Cayman S is now in a league above the SLK, TT and Z4.
