The optional Black Edition PDLS+ Porsche Dynamic Cornering Bi-Xenon headlights with High Beam Assist offer exceptional brightness, even in challenging conditions. The light beam pattern actually adjusts from side to side depending on speed and steering wheel movement to light up round a corner increasing your line of sight at night.

“So the GTS is really rather fantastic. Of course it is. That it looks a little more special than the standard S simply adds a final layer of desirability. Indeed, the appearance and the range topping status, wrapping up all those tasty options in one model, will probably be enough for most. The GTS upgrades are so finely selected and offer sufficient ‘want one’ factor that the premium can be justified; it makes a stunning sports car that little more magnificent.”
PistonHeads, 2014

Background
The Porsche 981 is the internal designation given to the third-generation Porsche Cayman models built by Porsche, released in summer 2012. The 981 reflects the new design language from the 918 Spyder and 991 series 911, and features new and revised engine and transmission specifications. Together with a new body, the type 981 features a new chassis; 40 per cent more torsionally rigid, the front track is 40mm wider, the rear 18mm wider and the wheelbase extended by 60mm, but with a small weight reduction of 30kg. The 981 Cayman is the last to feature a boxer six-cylinder engine. The engine does away with the Intermediate Shaft, which proved to be a weak link in pre-2009 Cayman engines. The Cayman GTS was introduced in March 2014, it featured a more powerful engine, a new front and rear body kit, new Black Edition PDLS+ Bi-Xenon headlights, and a new sports exhaust system. The Cayman GTS is longer than the Cayman S by 30.5 mm due to its unique front and rear sculpted bumpers. 

Exterior
Our hand selected Cayman GTS looks stunning in its metallic coat of Jet Black, which has been machine polished by us and protected with Auto Finesse Soul Carnauba Wax. The striking 20-inch Carrera S wheels in metallic Silver are the perfect contrast to the paintwork. All the trim has a perfect finish, as do the Black Edition PDLS+ Bi-xenon Headlights and Dark Glass LED rear lights. The windows drop as they should when you open the door. The engine and boot struts also operate as they should.

Interior
The Cayman GTS comes with black leather and Alcantara with Red Stitching throughout the interior, including on the very special and valuable GT3 Carbon Bucket Seats, they also have the optional 3-stage seat heating and Carmine Red GTS Embroidered Headrests. The extended black leather and Alcantara with Red Stitching dashboard, centre console, armrest, doors and seats are in excellent condition and provide a perfect pairing to the Jet Black metallic bodywork. There are no marks or signs of wear to any of the trim parts, panels or switchgear, with the leather and Alcantara retaining a wholly fresh appearance throughout. The sleek aesthetic is topped-off with features like the Carmine Red Instrument Dials, Carbon Fibre Trim, Black with Red Stripe Seat Belts and Leather Sport Design Steering Wheel.

Engine and Transmission
Our Cayman GTS is equipped with the 3.4 litre DFI flat six engine. The Cayman GTS engine produces 340bhp and 280ft-lb of torque. The axle load distribution of approximately 45:55 ensures high directional stability and superb road behaviour. The engine starts cleanly when cold or hot, there is no smoke whatsoever either at startup or when driving. There are no unusual sounds or rattles when the engine is running. The 6-speed manual transmission system provides instant changes, unleashing the power of the engine with minimal fuss, with the optional auto rev matching available upon activating SPORT or SPORT PLUS modes.

This Cayman GTS is also equipped with PASM switchable sports suspension system, which includes the dashboard switch that stiffens the suspension in an instant, increasing connection to the road.

The Cayman GTS is fitted with Sport Chrono Package Plus, which adds a SPORT and SPORT PLUS button that sharpen the throttle response, rev matches and blips the throttle on downshifts whilst also adding a dashboard mounted stopwatch to add to the sporting image of the GTS.

Our GTS is equipped with the highly desired Porsche Switchable Sports Exhaust PSE system, which unleashes a more sporty sound both on acceleration and lift off. With SPORT or SPORT PLUS mode enabled, the sound increases further, with pops and crackles when you lift off the throttle.

This Cayman GTS is also equipped with the Sound Symposer System, which allows additional sound from the engine to enter the cabin, via an active pipe which opens and closes depending on what mode you have the car in, Normal, SPORT or SPORT PLUS, to add an extra dimension of sportiness to the drive.

This Cayman GTS has the PADM dynamic engine/transmission mounts, which electronically control the oscillations and vibrations of the entire drivetrain, especially the engine. By adapting stiffness and damping characteristics to changes in driving style and road surface conditions, the dynamic gearbox mounts combine the benefits that otherwise distinguish hard and soft gearbox mounting arrangements. For the driver, the results are tangible. Handling is perceptibly more stable under load-change conditions and in fast corners. Whenever a less assertive driving style is adopted, the dynamic gearbox mounts automatically soften to enhance comfort. You experience the best of the best worlds—uncompromisingly sporty performance in corners, yet with a high degree of comfort. The SPORT or SPORT PLUS button enables you to switch the dynamic gearbox mounts from Normal to Sport or Performance mode.

Wheels, Tyres and Brakes
Our Cayman GTS comes fitted with the 20-inch Carrera S III lightweight alloy wheels in metallic Silver, which are unmarked, free of kerbing damage and corrosion. The brakes are phenomenal, cross drilled and vented discs front and rear with Guards Red Brake Callipers with Porsche lettering in White. The front discs/pads/sensors have been recently replaced. The tyres are matching Porsche N-rated Pirelli P-Zero high performance tyres, which have lots of tread.

The car is HPI clear and comes complete with 6 months warranty and roadside/home assistance, which can be extended up to 2 years. We are a Hertfordshire based Porsche Specialist, all our Porsche are kept indoors, ready to view by appointment regardless of the weather. Finance & Part Exchange Available.
