The end of an era, with a bit of nostalgia

When it comes to automotive icons, Porsche stands tall. Their commitment to precision engineering, heart-pounding performance, and a timeless design is evident in every vehicle they produce. The 718 Cayman is a prime example, and the Style Edition takes this mid-engine sports car to the next level. It looks like Porsche is making tribute to the past and saying goodbye to an icon, and I think they did a great job!

Style That Makes a Statement

The 718 Cayman Style Edition is visually striking. It builds upon the Cayman’s athletic stance with exclusive touches that demand attention:

  • Contrasting Accents: Choose between black or white accents for a truly bespoke look. These accents adorn the wheels, mirror caps, and side graphics.
  • Exclusive Wheel Design: 20-inch 718 Spyder design wheels finished in high-gloss black elevate the car’s sporty persona.
  • Color Options: The Style Edition is available in classic Ruby Star Neo, a vibrant metallic pink that pays homage to Porsche’s rich racing heritage.
  • Interior Refinements: Leather package in black with contrasting stitching in Chalk, ‘Style Edition’ logos, and illuminated door sill guards complete the sophisticated look.

Porsche Pedigree Under the Hood

Don’t let the stylish appearance fool you, the Style Edition packs a punch. It shares its powerplant with the standard Cayman — a 2.0-liter turbocharged flat-four engine churning out 300 horsepower and 280 lb-ft of torque. This translates to a 0–60 mph sprint in a mere 4.9 seconds (with the PDK transmission) and a soundtrack that only a Porsche can deliver.

Driving Dynamics, Perfected

The Cayman Style Edition inherits the model’s exceptional handling characteristics. Its mid-engine layout provides impeccable balance, while Porsche’s engineering prowess ensures razor-sharp reflexes and unmatched driver feedback. This car is designed to dance through corners and reward enthusiastic driving.

The Porsche 718 Cayman Style Edition offers a compelling blend of style, substance, and that unmistakable Porsche spirit. In addition to its exclusive design features, it boasts a generous list of standard equipment, including:

  • Sport exhaust system
  • Heated seats and steering wheel
  • Porsche Communication Management (PCM) with Apple CarPlay integration
