I wouldn't compare the Z with the Cayman S. Maybe the regular Cayman. The maintenance will be high on any Porsche compared to the Z.

The Cayman S is the porsche they pin against a 370z sport in magazines. Any magazine will give porsche hands down the trophy for refined agility and premium feel in the suspension motor transmission and smoother in the overall feel. The Z feels, harsh, coarse and unrefined by comparison. So in that sense there's no comparison.
Throw the Z on the track and if you just rate raw performance. Z the is just as capable.

For half the price I will take capability over refinement. The porsche is a great car but I love my "Crude lil Z".

+1........ I like the Porsche as well, but it is more of a headache to have. I would hope that the Porsche Cayman S would be a better car if you are paying almost twice as much.

Agree! Note though that 90+% of the time, our cars don't hit the track. Just imagine how many hours we could be enjoying the refinements of the Cayman. Just like the mattress salesman said, "you spend 1|3 of your life in bed, so buy the best bed you could afford and enjoy it to the max!"
