Porsche Boxster R testing

Is this the Cayman GT4's soft-top sibling?



We know there's a really quick Porsche Cayman coming. Spy images have been circulating for months now, the car sporting bigger wheels, brakes and spoilers in the usual fast Porsche manner.

Come on Porsche, tell us something!

This car appears to be the Boxster equivalent. You'll notice immediately it doesn't look quite as aggressive as the coupe but there are a few little identifiers to mark it out as something special. See the GT3-esque bonnet lip, fixed spoiler and larger front intake. This doesn't seem to be a Boxster Spyder reincarnation though as the roof looks like a regular Boxster soft top. Note too it isn't running carbon ceramic brakes like the last Cayman we saw.

Given Porsche hasn't even yet confirmed these models we still can't be definitive on a specification. As and when there is anything more than just more ruddy spy images on this pair we'll let you know. They better be damn good.

Holding off ordering a new BGTS because of this, a bit more power along with less weight bring it on smile
