Porsche used the 2014 Beijing Motor Show to narrow the gap between the Cayman/Boxster and the 911/911 Cabriolet even further, with the automaker introducing its Cayman GTS and Boxster GTS to the world.
The GTS moniker starts with changes under the hood, where the S versions’ 3.4-liter flat six gets an extra 15 hp, while torque has also slightly gone up. This means the Boxster GTS delivers 330 hp and 370 Nm / 273 lb-ft (an extra 10 Nm/7 lb-ft), while the Cayman GTS offers 340 hp and 380 Nm / 280 lb-ft.
The Sport Chrono package is standard, but you can choose between the optional seven-speed PDK and a six-speed manual (yes, you’ll still be one gear short of the 911’s 7-speed manual). Go for the PDK and the Cayman GTS will rocket to 62 mph in 4.6 seconds, while the Boxster GTS needs an extra 0.1 seconds for the job.
By the way, PASM adaptive suspension and 20-inch blacked-out wheel are also standard. As an option, you can have a sports suspension that brings the car 20 mm closer to the road.
You can distinguish the Boxster and Cayman GTS thanks to their new front and rear aprons, which bring a bit of an edgier styling.
In Germany, the Boxster GTS starts at EUR69,949, while the Cayman GTS begins at EUR73,575. As for the US, the aforementioned values sit at US$73,500 and US$75,200, respectively. Don’t forget to add a $995 delivery charge.
This may seem like an astronomical price tag for a Boxster/Cayman, but if we consider all the standard kit on the GTS models, the prices seem to fall in the general Porsche line.
By thge way, the Cayman GTS and Boxster GTS have already been spotted out in the wild.
