IMS bearing problem isn't really a big deal for Caymans, it was more of a problem for the 996 911's (non-turbo). What 987.1 Caymans did suffer from is oil starvation issues when cornering load, which is why some people who tracked them or raced them had issues.
I thought the power on my Cayman S was fine. It doesn't have the grunt of a V8 but it's a light and nimble car with a glorious flat-6 and excellent feel. The 2009+ is clearly better and doesn't have any oiling issues, so I would get one of those if they fit in budget.
