Meant to say also there is no support for wireless phone charging as far as I know - just a USB port below the cntre arm rest for charging and to enable Apple Carplay (if you're an iPhone user of course).

Can't help you with wireless charging - but one thing g I would definitely add is the 64 litre fuel tank at £84. This gives you an additional 10 litres to provide a more useful range.- up.until 718 Boxster / Cayman always had 64 litre tank! Ridiculous you have to pay for that but I guess the artificially small tank is there to keep the weight down for the nonsensical EU fuel and emissions testing.
I hadn’t thought of that, it’s relatively cheap as an option. I wonder where porsche pluck some of the prices from as some things seem cheap and others at silly prices I.e. dial colours at £350

I seem to remember it's standard on the S, but not the base model. I'm already seeing over 400 miles per tankful on longer runs with the little tank. Reckon with another 10l I'd be in danger of running out by seeing if I could crack the 500 mile mark.

Yup, my mistake. I have an S and didn’t realise the 64l tank was an option on the 2litre. Worth the £84 quid though.

I'm with Liam. If you use the car as a DD there are plenty of occasions when traffic completely dictates your speed where I live. In those circumstances you might as well amuse yourself and keep alert by driving for economy.

Don't know anything about spec'ing the 718 but just to say a Cayman 718 drove alongside me on the motorway yesterday in a really nice dark metallic blue and it looked excellent.

p.s. I think they only come in the two seater option... (oops couldn't resist) biggrin

You won't if you get it for a good price.
