The Cayman GT4's 4.0-liter flat-six is a modified version of the twin-turbo 3.0-liter six found in 911s. It's good for 414 horsepower and 319 lb-ft of torque.

The GT4's standard six-speed manual transmission is simply excellent in its tuning, with an precise and easy to modulate clutch pedal and an almost clairvoyant shift lever.

You'll need at least $100,500 to secure a GT4 for yourself, which seems like a lot for a Porsche Cayman—until you drive it.

Additional powertrain tech on the GT4 includes active engine mounts and cylinder deactivation, the latter of which you can disable by turning off the engine stop-start system.

In our testing, the Cayman GT4 reached 60 mph in 3.7 second and blitzed the quarter-mile in 11.9 seconds at 120 mph.

The GT4 sits 1.0 inch lower than the standard Cayman and rides on a stiffer suspension.

The GT4 is a highly emotional driving machine but, depending on the road conditions where you live, it may be too harsh for use as a daily driver.

The GT4's redesigned muffler makes room for the new diffuser, which generates 30 percent of the downforce on the rear axle.
