Owners of an older Porsche looking to retrofit a modern infotainment system are in luck, with Porsche announcing its Classic Communication Management Plus (PCCM) system for the 911, Cayenne, Cayman and Boxster. Priced from $2900, the PCCM throws out the old head unit in favour of a specialised touch-screen display […]

Porsche Cayman with V8 conversion is nuts (video)
The Porsche Boxster and Cayman – whilst not exactly short on power – are not about outright grunt. They are mid-engined sports cars whose raison d’être is more about scalpel sharp cornering precision and mid-engined balance. Throw in a US$14,000 (about AU$19k) Ford Coyote crate engine and you have something […]
Porsche Cayman GT4 Clubsport rally concept, yes please
Porsche has released images of an awesome 718 Cayman GT4 Clubsport rally concept, which could mark the test bed for a production version… maybe even Porsche’s return to rally as a factory racing team? The one-off is set to hit the dirt as a course car later this month, at […]

Porsche Cayman GT4 RS confirmed via dealer tweet?
The Porsche Cayman GT4 is one of the purest machines you can buy, with a 3.8-litre, 283kW/420Nm flat-six borrowed from its big brother the 911, but mounted amidships, in an 80kg lighter package than the GT3 RS. Unlike that car, it is exclusively available with a proper six-speed manual, instead […]
Porsche Cayman GT4 ‘RS’ rumoured, to get 4.0L flat six
Porsche may be planning a more hardcore variant of the Cayman GT4, potentially wearing the ‘RS’ badge, which could borrow the 911’s most potent powertrain in the hunt for more speed. Considering the latest generation 718 Cayman can lap the Nürburgring Nordschliefe in similar pace to the current GT4, Porsche […]
Porsche planning ‘low-boost’ 718 Boxster / Cayman for China
In a bid to increase sales in China, Porsche is apparently planning to release a detuned version of the 718 Boxster and Cayman, with around 186kW, down from 220kW. Using the base 718’s 2.0-litre turbo flat-four as a base, rather than the Boxster/Cayman S’s 2.5-litre unit, the reduced output is […]
