Custom Porsche Cayman GTR to debut in March




Farnbacher Loles Motorsports will unveil the Cayman GTR at the legendary 12 Hours of Sebring race weekend, March 15-18. The limited edition GTR has been highly anticipated by both the Porsche faithful and the media. At the heart of the GTR is a Porsche 3.8 liter S or X-51 engine in either 375 hp or 405 hp variations. Drawing on Farnbacher Loles extensive racing success, the GTR also features a unique adjustable suspension designed to work in concert with the sizable increase in power. Recently, Porsche representatives said they had no plans to build an official Cayman RS, contrary to the hopes of enthusiasts. See more images of the Cayman GTR after the jump…

From the outside, the GTR is easily identified by the new, aggressive Cup car inspired front end and 19” black center wheels. Farnbacher Loles has also created a proprietary rear spoiler which replaces the stock Cayman unit but still retains the height adjustability. Inside, the GTR displays hand-crafted leather accents to distinguish it from its less powerful siblings.
The GTR can be ordered as a complete vehicle or an existing Cayman can be converted to GTR specs.

I saw a cayman on the street and was surprised it looked so good. In the many pics around before it launched, that rear didn't do much for me. In person, it's looking pretty good. Porsche may do well with this car.

Boxsters are selling dirt cheap used. Wonder if a Cayman conversion can be done

The roofline looks like it would prevent that.
