保时捷718顶级版本已经被谍照记者拍到无数次了。但最近记者非常难得的拍到了CaymanGT4和BoxsterSpyder在一起的照片，当时这两款车正在进行最终测试。虽然车身伪装已经拿掉，但这两款车的排气系统仍让人感觉会在最终量产版上有一些改变。在这两款车中，轿跑车看起来更具侵略性一些，这主要归功于它硕大尾翼，但敞篷版采用了新的织物软顶并与车尾的一对拱形隆起相结合。BoxsterSpyder并未采用GT4的硕大尾翼，替代它的是微微隆起的扰流唇，使其尾部造型比BoxsterGTS更低调一些。BoxsterSpyder重新设计的行李箱提升了外观吸引力。这两款车除了共享黑色车身涂装和轮圈外，还将同样搭载取自911GT3的水平对置六缸自然进气引擎。不过，保时捷不会允许这两款车的功率达到911的500马力，因此引擎功率会进一步调低。这两款车搭载的4.0升引擎功率将轻松超过400马力，从而与365马力的GTS存在一定的动力差距。预计这两款车将同时发布。

 

Porsche 718 Cayman GT4 Spied On A Date With 718 Boxster Spyder

The range-topping versions of Porsche’s 718 have been spotted countless times, but now we’re being given the rare opportunity to see the Cayman GT4 and the Boxster Spyder together while undergoing final testing. The camouflage is basically gone, although we have a feeling the exhaust system of both cars will go through some changes between now and the official debut.

 

Of the two cars, the coupe looks a bit more aggressive thanks to the massive rear wing extending all the way to the body’s hips, but the droptop is also quite interesting with is new fabric roof incorporating a pair of flying buttresses. For obvious reasons, the Boxster Spyder doesn’t get the Cayman GT4’s rear wing as instead, it features a subtle spoiler lip making it look a tad bit more aggressive than the Boxster GTS’ rear end. The Spyder’s redesigned rear deck further contributes to the car’s appeal and should look even better in topless form.

 

Besides sharing the menacing black paint and the wheels, the two cars are also expected to feature the same naturally aspirated flat-six engine adapted from the 911 GT3. By “adapted” we basically mean de-tuned since Porsche surely won’t allow the two cars to match the Nine Eleven’s 500-horsepower muscle. While the jury is still out on the GT4’s and Spyder’s power, output of the 4.0-liter unit should easily surpass the 400-hp mark to allow the dynamic duo distance itself from the 365-hp GTS models.

 

With Porsche only masking the LED daytime running lights, it’s probably a sign the wraps are about to come off and we won’t be too surprised if the 718 Cayman GT4 and the 718 Boxster Spyder will be unveiled at the same time. While putting the finishing touches on the two cars, Porsche is also preparing a new track-only Cayman Clubsport and is also toying around with the idea of a rally-ready Cayman.
