The one thing I don't understand about the Cayman is: why would people want a Cayman S and not a Boxster S with the possibility to open the top?
Is the Cayman S much lighter than the Boxster S? I doubt it.
Is it more powerful? Well, 15 HP more isn't really a significant upgrade.
Is it faster on the track? The Boxster S is already a very refined car, I don't see much room for improvement.

So why the Cayman? Honestly, I don't know.

Because a fixed roof gives you a stiffer structure which allows the suspension to do it's job better. Weight is about the same but every magazine review I have read says that in terms of performance the Cayman S trumps the Boxster S.
