As for their performance, the Cayman with the Sport Chrono Package can run 0-60 mph in 4.5 seconds and the Cayman S can accomplish the run in 4.0 seconds with the Sport Chrono Package.

Like the 718 Boxster, the 718 Cayman received a facelift. In the front, the new Cayman looks similar to the outgoing model, but with a “sharper profile” and “ultra-slim” front lights located above the larger air intakes. The rear is where the major overhaul happened, coming in the form of a redesigned rear fascia and completely redesigned taillights. Porsche also updated the interior of both models, noting in their press release that both the upper dashboard and air vents are new.
For pricing, Porsche announced today that the 718 Cayman will have an MSRP of $53,900 and the 718 Cayman S will be at $66,300 (not including the $1,050 delivery, processing and handling fee).
