The Porsche Cayman GT4 Clubsport is a German-made car which offers a rare mix of track performance and street cred.
This vehicle is powered by a 3.8-liter flat-six engine, and is capable of pumping out 385 horsepower through a six-speed double-clutch transmission with shift paddles. The front axle associated with the GT4 is nowhere to be seen, having been replaced with a lightweight strut front axle.
One of the highlights of the Porsche Cayman GT4 Clubsport is its ability to smoothly but quickly slow into corners, by virtue of 380-millimeter brake discs.
It's noteworthy that this car isn't built for public roads, which is why a lot of home comforts are nowhere to be seen -- this vehicle is built for some serious track racing, which explains why it has a safety cage, racing bucket and six-point harness.
