AutoJunk spotted this black-matte Ruf GTR3, and you have to admit it looks pretty amazing! I really want one!
Powering the CTR3 is a twin-turbo 3.8-liter flat six engine pumping out 700 bhp at 7,000 rpm with torque topping out at 657 lb-ft. Drive is sent to the wheels via a rumored seven-speed sequential automatic gearbox that’s said to allow the CTR3 to reach a top speed of 224 mph.
The Porsche Cayman is starting to put out the numbers of its bigger brother 911. Although we have already presented Caymans from tuning houses like Techart and Speedart, a manufacturer named TPC Racing produced the most powerful Cayman yet. The new kit includes a closed boost control, temperature compensation table and a barometric pressure compensation table.
All of these make the Cayman develop an astonishing 420 hp. With this new amount of power, the vehicle can put sprint from 0-60 mph in less than 5 seconds while the top speed is electronically limited, due to the safety rules, at 155 mph.
Only last week we brought you the first spy shots of the next generation Cayman and today we bring you the first exclusive rendering of the next sports car. Set to debut in 2012, the next Cayman will compete with with Audi’s proposed R3 and the next-gen BMW Z4.
The next Cayman will be inspired by the next Boxster that will make its world debut this November at the Los Angeles Auto Show.
It will receive direct-injection engine technology, seven-speed PDK gearboxes and minor interior and exterior tweaks in line with the new second-generation 997 911.
Porsche is currently testing the first prototypes of the next generation Cayman, model that will compete with Audi’s proposed R3, the next-gen BMW Z4 and possibly the Artega GT in Europe.
The revised Boxster should be unveiled at the LA motor show in November. This will provide the basis for the new Cayman, which should appear sometime in early 2009. Both models will receive direct-injection engine technology, seven-speed PDK gearboxes and minor interior and exterior tweaks in line with the new second-generation 997 911.
The Cayman is due in showrooms by late 2011 and known internally as 991. Porsche promises It will be "more competent, even sexier, even more unique", featuring an evolutionary design.
Porsche has added two new special editions to its line up: the Boxster S Porsche Design Edition 2 and the Cayman S Sport, models both powered by a 3.4 litres engine that delivers 303 bhp.
Both new models come with a wide range of exclusive equipment highlighted by the particularly striking design of the car and will be available at the dealership as of early September.
The Boxster S Porsche Design Edition 2 features 19-inch SportDesign wheels as standard, side air intakes, centre console and the dials on the three round instruments finished in white. Sporting grey stripes extending lengthwise along the body accentuate the brilliant white finish of the car in the same sophisticated style as the red rear lights.

For those folks who consider that their Porsche Cayman S isn’t sporty enough, Inden Design, a German tuning company, unveiled its customization programme for the well-known sports car. The programme includes a new exhaust system but also some ECU tweaking which adds 19 hp.
Also a new H7R sport springs system was added together with a new set of 19 inch alloy wheels. Until the launch of the Cayman S Sport this programme might be a good alternative for the Cayman owners.
Two days ago we reported that Porsche will add a new special edition to its Cayman line-up: the Cayman S Sport. And today we bring you the first official image.
The sports car will be priced at £49,890 and will feature Porsche Active Stability Management, 303bhp and that tasty two-tone body/wheel combo. It’s been lowered by 10mm too.
Stay tuned for the official details.
Porsche is working on a new special edition in order to celebrate its 60th birthday: a Sport version for its successful Cayman S.
The Cayman S Sport will cost around £47000 and feature a two-tone colour scheme inspired by the 911 GT3, complete with stickers down the side with coordinating wheels.
There will be no power upgrade, it will only feature sports chrono packs, limited colours and tweaks to brakes and suspension and maybe a few extra bhps.
German Car Scene revealed new details about the upcoming facelifted versions of the Cayman and Boxster. Both models will go on sale in February 2009.
Like the Carreera and the Carera 4, the Boxster and Cayman will feature LED taillights, LED brake lights, LED rear fog light, dynamic cornering lights, CDR 30 with 5 inch screen and PCM 3.0 touchscreen.
Under the hood there will be two new engines: new DFI-engine generation for 3,4 l and new VC+ 2,9 l engine. PDK will also be offered in order to improve fuel economy.
Full details after the jump.
