They used old parts, it is cheaper to make, and yet they charge more. If that is not a neutered car I don't know what is.
Yes, we all know the reason they don't give it a limited slip and a proper motor. It would step on the 911's toes, Porsche has backed themselves into a corner.

Valid points, but that doesn't make the Cayman S any less fun to drive in its current setup. It just means that it's currently overpriced. With the $10K discounts dealers are offering right now, it's certainly a lot of car for the money.
