It depends on the performance of the Cayman which is to be determined... If its too close to the Carrera then I think people might be persuaded to go for a Cayman and save the cash. But the over all package of a 997 should overcome this... It was the same situation years ago when the Boxster S came out and the 300bhp Carrera 2 looked kind of expensive next to it... So Porsche upped the power and face lifted the 996 to distance it...

I hope Porsche make the Cayman a very sport orientated model...Low on options high on performance...a sort of junior GT3 if you like..
