Cayman = Grand Touring car
Lotus Exige = sports car

My perspective on these definitions is admittedly archaic as it remains rooted in the era of XK 120s, MG TDs, Austin Healeys, Allards, Morgans, etc. Caried to the extreme, only roadsters were pure - coupes were considered to be a concession to Grand Touring (chassis stiffness was not yet a mainstream consideration).

I bought my SC because it fits into that perspective more than other, newer "sports cars".
