Accessories for the new Cayman model range
Page 2 of 29
As with the cars we create, all our after-
market accessories undergo rigorous
testing during their development. From
design through to approval, we thor -
oughly scrutinise important properties,
from safet y to performance and from
fitness for purpose to durability. After
all, they are more than just accessories;
they are part of a harmonious overall
concept – your Porsche. The same also applies to one of the
highlights in our range: the 20 -inch
SportTechno wheels painted in GT Silver
Metallic. The sizes of the wheels and
t yres have been maximised so that they
finish flush with the body of the car
and give it an even more imposing
appearance. As a mark of refinement,
the spokes and rim have a highly
polished surface finish. The wheel centres with full- colour
Porsche Crest
are available with a GT Silver Metallic
paint finish.
But how about if you want even more
from your car – more performance,
more st yle, more comfort, in short,
more individuality? No problem. Which -
ever Tequipment products you ask your
Porsche Centre to fit, your Porsche will always be the masterpiece that the
developers at Weissach envisaged it to be.
For peace of mind, you can rest assured
that your original warrant y will not be
affected.

Imagine a car whose exceptional perfor -
mance is matched by exceptional design.
A car with taut proportions and a smooth
silhouette. With defined lines and edges,
a long wheelbase and a wide track. That
car is the Cayman. Built to resolutely
master one particular code: the code of
the curve. For any thing that so self-
evidently goes its own way, there can be
no compromises.Dreams and reality.
Sometimes they’re one and the same thing.Just like there can be no compromises for
you – or indeed for the Porsche develop -
ment team at Weissach. Every single one
of them strives to get the best out of eve -
ry thing. The result: a very special vehicle
which you can subsequently personalise
with model-specific products provided by
Porsche Tequipment. Products designed
by the same Porsche engineers and
designers who made your car.

A Cayman may not conform,
but it does live up to your expectations.
With the Cayman, it ’s all about performance
excellence. It ’s a concept that permeates
every aspect, from driving dynamics to
design, allowing you not only to explore
the physical limits of your car, corner
after corner, but the limits of your imagi -
nation too.
Why not use that imagination, for example,
to make a few changes to the Cayman’s
appearance? You can make it even more
emotive and expressive. Or perhaps you’d
prefer to emphasise the dynamic, unmis -
takable and uncompromising character of
your Cayman? Whatever your preference,
the products from the Porsche Tequipment
range, including a selection of wheels and
model designations for the doors, will give
your car an incomparable presence.
In short, this is your opportunit y to lend
the Cayman an even sportier character.
Namely your own.

Notes on the use of winter tyres
Summer t yres provide optimum perfor -
mance at ambient temperatures above
+7 °C. Below this point, the t yre com-
pound begins to harden and braking
distances are increased. We therefore recommend that you fit
winter t yres during the colder months
of the year so that you can drive your
Cayman safe in the knowledge that it will
continue to meet our high standards for
driving safet y even at low temperatures. All winter t yres approved by
Porsche are
identified by an ‘N’ designation on the side -
wall. These t yres are beneficial because
they have been optimised to produce less
noise, rolling resistance is reduced for
improved fuel economy, and, importantly, braking distances are shorter at low
temperatures (below +3 °C).
