Maybe this was a few years ago and they have redone the Cayman in the past years? Not sure, but I know that was the case at one point in time...
I wouldn't say beat, but it was definately a drivers race. The cayman was much better in giving a precise refined ride and was smoother in the corners. The Z was a more rambunctious muscley type car in terms of behavior. Though the Z was able to be more precise than the cayman. It took more effort to achieve that precision. The z beat the cayman S by a hairline win, but in other tests the cayman has also won. It's been boiled down to a drivers race or brutish muscle versus refinement or which one can you afford?
