SpeedHunters.com, In many ways, I like to think of the Cayman S as a direct descendant
of the Karmann Ghia (even if that’s not technically true if we follow
the direct product lines). Just as the Karmann Ghia lived in the shadow
of the Beetle, the Cayman has experienced the same fate with the 911.
Great cars, no doubt, but it’ll always be difficult to exist alongside
arguably two of the greatest cars ever built.
It
was late November 2014 when Niall O’Dowd collected the Cayman S and it
only took until December to start work on getting the car ready for the
2015 show season. Roughly four months had elapsed before he unveiled the
car on his Instagram account, the day before Ultimate Dubs. What
changes took place during this time period? Let’s
start from the bottom and work our way up. A set of custom Rotiform LVS

the arches courtesy of a fully custom hydraulic suspension setup
featuring one-off spherical top mounts and Porsche Motorsport adjustable
toe-links.
