Cayman and Boxster weights are all over the place because of options and differences between the generations 986, 987, 981, 982 (718). However, despite Porsche's claims to the contrary, they have DEFINITELY gained weight over the years.
The Cayman S used in Car and Driver's 2017 Lightning Lap event weighed 3162. That's for a car equipped with the PDK and PASM. Porsche's website says the Cayman S weighs 2954 lb, so that's a pretty big difference.
My model 987 Cayman S, when tested by R&T in 2006, weighed 2955 lb. Differences from my car were PASM (added weight), power seats (added weight) and PCCBs (reduced weight). Mine is stripped, other than Sport Chrono I basically have no options. I've never had the car weighed, but I'm pretty confident it's under 3000 lb. Skidpad figure they came up with, btw, was 0.96 using Michelin Pilot Sports.
