I don't think so, the Cayman gives up about 25 horsepower to the Cayenne, (although the Cayman S has 25 more than the Cayenne) but the Cayenne is 1400 lbs heavier.

That's why the Cayman can do a 5.4 0-to-60 and 165 mph, (4.7 and 175 for the S), opposed to the Cayenne's 7.1 sec and 142 mph.

Although I admit the Cayman is attractive. The toad thing adds to its charm.
Oh yes, I'm not a Porsche fan, nor sports cars in general, but took a liking to the toad style right away.
