From the beginning, the Cayman has been 90% similar styling to the Boxster, so I would expect the same.

I expect Porsche will differentiate the Cayman by some minor front-end styling cues. Those renders all appear to have the New Boxster front bumper. The rear will also be quite similar, but with some small differences such as rear apron/diffuser design.

If 90% means everything but the top - yes they are 90% identical. Simply put, one is the 987 roadster. The other is the 987 hardtop.

Looks pretty good. I just got one, now the new one's coming out and I guess I'll upgrade in a few years.

Yet, many people don't know this. I've had Cayman owners sit in my car and many have the surprising comment of.... the interior looks just like my Cayman - they then start pushing the A/C & radio buttons and popping out cup holders, etc to see if they do the same thing.
