I read somewhere that the Boxster was made is Russia to cut costs--is this
the case with the Cayman?

Finland for both.  Google "Valmet Porsche"

The X3 BMW was made outside of Germany and I had many issues with it--are
the Finnish Porsche of less quality than the Carrera?

Actually the cars assembled by Valmet (from "kits" sent from Stuttgart) were
shown to have higher quality than those that were assembled in Stuttgart.
Basically...everything is sent by rail from Germany and Valmet puts it
together.
