Dortmund Porsche tuning specialists 9ff, well-known for their record breaking 911 GT3, have administered a tonic to the Cayman S. The 9ff CR42 is powered by a 420 HP engine, mid-mounted as usual, that will accelerate the new coup to 100 Km/h in 4.4 seconds. One of the obvious visual signs of the cars potential is the addition of centre-lock racing wheels with low-profile tyres.

It was the companys owner, Jan Fatthauer, who completed a run at the Nardo test track in Italy in his converted Porsche 911 GT3 at a record speed of 386.7 Km/h. With this experience behind them, 9ff decided to develop a conversion for the recently announced Cayman S. They make two versions, a 3.8 litre with 380 HP, and the 4.1 litre CR42 with 420 HP and a maximum torque of 435 Nm.

Already a fast car, the standard model is beaten to 100 Km/h by a full second by the CR42 and 200 Km/h comes up in just 14.4 seconds.

Besides work on the Cayman S, 9ff are developing their own supercar, the 9f-GT1. This car is clearly inspired by Porsches own GT1 and 9ff have set themselves a target of 400 Km/h powered by their own 900 HP motor.

99f? CR42? What's up with the alphanumerics?
Makes it sound more important, and Porsche snobs will be able to identify each other by how much of the "code" they've memorized. :D
