If a mid-engine, rear-wheel-drive sports car is consistently occupying the number one spot on your automotive wish list, but you can’t afford the lofty sticker prices of the exotics, the Porsche Cayman might be the car of your dreams. With a starting price that undercuts the Lotus Evora by nearly $14,000, the Porsche Cayman is decidedly the most affordable mid-engine coupe on the market.
If you favor high levels of luxury and comfort over dynamic performance in your next 2-door sports car, the compliant road manners and lushly-appointed cabins of the Mercedes-Benz SLK and the BMW Z4 will deliver on your expectations.
