The Old-Fashioned Way
1. You can't leave. You're pressured to buy the car today, without the chance to comparison shop.
2. Endless negotiation. You're stuck for hours going head-to-head with a salesman.
3. You're overwhelmed by numbers. APRs, fees, payment schedules—you have to sign right away and there's no time to think.
Our Dealer Network
We generate millions of dollars in sales each month for the dealers. By using our website as the middleman, you can save hundreds of dollars on your purchase. Why do dealers work with us then? Because of the 50,000 cars sold each day, fewer than 500 are sold through our network. That’s a drop in the bucket for the car dealers, but a bottom line price quote for you.
In addition, we'll show you any available manufacturer Rebates & Incentives for your new car.
The Back Door to Savings
A dealership’s Internet department prices its vehicles to maximize the number of cars it sells, not the profit per car. Manufacturers decide the allocation of vehicles and dealer perks on the basis of a dealership's volume.
Coming in through the "back door" levels the playing field for your negotiation and tells the dealer that you have done your research, that you know about rebates, hold-backs, multiple price quotes and all the tricks of the trade.
When you deal with our contacts in the Internet department, you get a firm price quote, and oftentimes the paper work is already prepared when you walk into the dealership.
Depending on your location, sometimes the dealer will bring the car to you at your home or office for a test drive, walk-around, and ultimately delivery.
We keep referring customers to friendly Internet Sales Managers, and they keep selling cars at incredibly low prices.
The WhyPaySticker.com Way
1. Start from the comfort of home. It's so easy with free, no-obligation Internet price quotes from Accredited Dealers.
2. Make dealers compete. You know you'll get the best price with competitive bids from multiple dealers.
3. Finalize the numbers on your terms. Finish your negotiations on your time, then go to the dealership to pick up your new car.
New 2012 Porsche Cayman Overview
Porsche's two-seat Cayman — and its roadster counterpart, the Boxster — compete with the Audi TT, BMW Z4, Chevrolet Corvette and Mercedes-Benz SLK-Class. The Boxster is covered in a separate report in the Cars.com Research section.
New for 2012
A Porsche SportDesign steering wheel is newly available, but the big news for 2012 is the debut of the Cayman R. A more powerful version of the Cayman S, the Cayman R also weighs 121 pounds less. It features a lowered sport suspension, limited-slip differential and a 3.4-liter horizontally opposed six-cylinder that's been tuned to produce 330 horsepower — 10 hp more than the Cayman S' engine.
With a six-speed manual transmission, the Cayman R can go from zero to 60 mph in 4.7 seconds. The optional seven-speed dual-clutch automatic cuts the time to 4.6 seconds (4.4 with the Sport Chrono Package). Top track speed is 175 mph.
Exterior cues include black headlight frames, special front and rear spoilers, lightweight 19-inch wheels borrowed from the Boxster Spyder, and classic Porsche side stripes. The interior has undergone a weight-loss regimen with the deletion of air conditioning and the stereo (which can be added back at no extra charge). The sport bucket seats save 26 pounds, according to Porsche, and lightweight door panels, which include pull-straps instead of traditional levers, provide more weight savings.
Exterior
The Cayman has round fog lights — the Boxster's are rectangular — and a larger grille opening. The turn signals are incorporated into the projector-beam halogen headlight clusters. Exterior features include:
- Standard 17-inch wheels; 18- or 19-inch wheels optional
- Standard LED taillights
- Front trunk, rear cargo area
An available 6.5-inch touch-screen controls the audio, communication and navigation systems in this two-seat coupe. Interior features include:
- Optional six-CD changer, Bose surround sound system, navigation system, carbon fiber trim, and heated/ventilated seats
The base engine is a 265-hp, 2.9-liter horizontally opposed six-cylinder. The 3.4-liter six-cylinder in the Cayman S generates 320 hp and 330 hp in the Cayman R. Both engines are available with a manual or PDK dual-clutch automatic transmission. Mechanical features include:
- Standard six-speed manual transmission
- Optional seven-speed PDK automatic with manual-shift mode
- 3.4-liter engine offers direct fuel injection for better performance, gas mileage
- Optional adaptive suspension
Standard safety features include:
- Antilock disc brakes
- Side-impact airbags
- Side curtain airbags
- Electronic stability system
