I don't consider a 911 a "show off" car at all. The look is dated, they are everywhere, etc. You can get a lot more "shock and awe" than a Porsche for $100K.
The Cayman was introduced solely for the purpose of giving a better price point so people who can't afford a 911 can have a "Porsche badge". Therefore I'd argue that the Cayman is actually more of a "look at me, I drive a porsche" than the 911 (i.e., the car of choice for thirtythousandaires). The 911 gives driving purists a better feel for the road due to the weight distribution and other tweaks. The Cayman is basically a coupe boxster (total chick car).
