Spy Shots: New 2013 Porsche Cayman S Pictured Inside and Out

Next up on Porsche's product menu for 2012 is the introduction of the all-new, second-generation Cayman coupe, which is the closed roof variant of the latest Boxster roadster.

Talking about the roof that is the primary difference between the two models, our latest scoop pictures give us a very clear view of its styling.

If you take a close look at the photos of the current and next generation of the Cayman that we've added below, you'll see that in the new model, the shape of the top looks more integrated into the car's design and less of an afterthought.

New 2013 Porsche Cayman Coupe Digitally Imagined

The official presentation of all-new Porsche Boxster roadster earlier this month afforded us a pretty good idea of what it's coupe sibling, the new Cayman, will look like, both inside and out.

There is of course a matter of proportions and the shape of the tin top, but that too can be solved with a little bit of imagination along with some help from the numerous spy shots that have circulated around the internet the last year.

Spied: 2013 Porsche Cayman Snagged on Video in Stuttgart

We've scooped prototypes of the new Cayman before (see here) but YouTube user "DrGumoLunatic" was able to film the closed-top sibling of the 2013 Boxster roadster at a stop light in the German city of Stuttgart, which is the home town of Porsche.

After seeing the roadster model, we more or less know what to expect on the styling front (both inside and out) while the same goes for the rest of the changes including the new lightweight aluminum body and the improved flat six engines.

It shouldn’t be long before Porsche does reveal the Cayman, but in the meantime, make the jump to watch and hear the coupe model in the video the follows.

Porsche Chief Driving Consultant Displays the Merits of the Cayman R

These past few months, the big news coming out from Porsche's headquarters in Stuttgart concerned the brand-new 911. And that's only natural as it’s not every day that we see a new 911 – and its most radical evolution at that.

On the other hand, the Boxster / Cayman duo is almost nowhere to be seen. That’s also to be expected: their replacements are coming next year, so the current models are more or less old news.

However, Porsche would like to remind us that the Cayman is still alive and well with a new video staring Porsche UK's Chief Driving Consultant, Gordon Robertso.

The French Tuning Connection: Delavilla's Widebody Porsche Cayman R1

It's not often that we get to see French tuning houses take on German sports cars, so when we stumbled upon the Delavilla-prepped Porsche Cayman R1 it immediately captured our attention.

One of the lesser-known tuners from France, Delavilla was established in 2007 and focuses exclusively on Porsche models currently offering complete programs for the Cayman and the 911 coupes. The company says that it is also working on tunes for the Speedster, the Cayenne SUV and the Panamera saloon, with more details to be released at a later date.

Back to the Cayman-based R1, the coupe model was revealed at the 2011 Lyon International Motor Show last month and it proposes a comprehensive exterior makeover along with a choice of power upgrades.

Convoy of 2013 Porsche 911 Turbo and Cabrio, Cayman and Boxster Prototypes Filmed in San Francisco

It’s not every day that you get to see a parade of subtly camouflaged Porsche prototypes parked one behind the other on the streets let alone away from Germany and in San Francisco.

If you watch the two videos posted after the break, you will see the new generations of the 911 Convertible, 911 Turbo, Cayman coupe and Boxster roadster, none of which have been revealed yet.

Our best guess is that Porsche held a special driving event either for journalists or North American dealers (perhaps both).
