The facelifts to the Boxster over the last 5 or 6 years turned it into a very good looking car.

Got to admit... that four cylinder sounds pretty good... But the old six sounded more than just pretty good.

richard165s I was between 718 and 981 GTS, and trust me 718 sounds like subaru while 981 GTS sound is intoxicating

richard165s if 718 were the first cayman/boxter ever made, it then will be the best sounding cayman/boxter ever.

@thesnoringsurgeon 7 лет назад
Also test the 981 before buying the 718. The 718 has a low growl. The 981 has a high soaring wail. Opinions differ. You all decide.
@simplefact4u
@simplefact4u 7 лет назад
Dr Raymond Tan Suan-Kuo was it the 981 GTS ? Cause nothing beats the sound GTS makes no matter where in rev range it is . That exhaust sound then scream of engine is hard to beat , once you try 981 GTS , 718 can't be matched

I've been checking out the 718 Cayman S in Miami blue for a while - so happy you guys finally reviewed it. In terms of price, you're really paying for the badge and the fact that it's a mid-engine sports car from a company with a long heritage.
@Mrapg32
@Mrapg32 6 лет назад
Thanks for the nice review KBB. To those who complain about the price, the new 4-cylnder engine and various other quibbles, I'm wondering how many of you have owned a Boxster or even test driven one? I'm on my 5th Boxster with the new 718 as my current one so I have a lot of experience with these cars. This doesn't make my opinion gospel, but at least it's from real-world experience. Admittedly, I was a bit disappointed with the sound of the new 4s and in some ways I miss the old engine sound, but the overall driving experience far outweighs this small negative for me. I traded in a Boxster S for a well-equipped base and it blows my old S out of the water in many ways including newer technology, speed and handling. Before you complain about the engine or anything else relating to performance, I suggest you go test drive one.

I have the Cayman and only got Miami Blue, PDK and Carrera S wheels as extras. I don't think you need much more it's meant to be a sports car not a luxury car. Alcantara standard seats are soooo nice as well, much nicer than leather or sportex i think.

I should clarify -- it's not that a V6/V8/etc. is bad, it's just that a Cayman or Boxster driver may well get satisfaction from a car they can afford to drive every day, and for longer on a tank.

@inspiration_5877 7 лет назад
Sure, it's a 4 Cylinder straight. It creates 300-350 Horsepower for a 4 Cylinder engine. That isn't bad. It's already Turbocharged so why not buy a few performance parts that are good for tracks, a supercharger, and learn how to install it yourself. I wouldn't do that at all. It's about the experience and quality of the build, not always the big numbers.

chltmdwp Yes. 911s have too much bulk in the front and the GT3's spoiler is hideous. Only the Cayenne and 718s are impeccable. I'm actually saving up for a 2017 718 Cayman S. Used, of course.

No its not pollution. Porsche wanted them to not be as good, competing with bigger brother 911. Never going to forgive Porsche fr that. Anyway, now actually the six will come back in the new Spyder. With a six and the, as is it rumoured, omission of the manual cab, it will be epic. I will save some money, I may trade in my 981S..

I can't get excited about an $80,000 sports car with a FOUR CYLINDER engine. I'm sure it's fast and drives great, but the engine doesn't sound that great, and the exhaust is WEAK. For $80,000 Porsche shouldn't be making these kinds of compromises. This took a pure sports car and made it less than pure. Put in a 2.5 liter turbo 6 if you have to, Lexus has a 2.5 6 in their IS 250. Or bring back the old natural six, it was fabulous! Good review though.
@TassieLorenzo
@TassieLorenzo 6 лет назад
The Porsche 356, 912, 914, 944 Turbo and 968 all had four cylinder engines, and they were all priced very high compared to Corvettes or Jaguars. What's the big deal? It's just traditional Porsche pricing.

Incredible ?By what standard? Incredible expensive for sure. So easy to make power in turbo these day, only interesting about these engine is the new "ALS" system in these car. Well new Ford use the technology too. Do you know back to 80s-90s how much HP JDM turbo cars are making? EVO FQ440? 2.0 NA 220 HP is incredible, with turbo nothing is impressive from OEM by today's standard. By the way, A45 AMG make 50 HP more and only 2.0l and it was released like three years ago. Focus RS? All the 2.0 performance car make 310+? You are from stone age right. $80k for a 4 cylinder is a joke. "Turbo are power cheater"-- Motortrend whatever episode it was shown.
@inspiration_5877
