The Boxster S Porsche Design Edition 2 and the Cayman S Sport

Two other new models also to be admired in Paris for the first time round off Porsche's range of mid-engined sports cars at the top end: Offering maximum output of 303 bhp (223 kW) from 3.4 litres, the Boxster S Porsche Design Edition 2 and the Cayman S Sport deliver eight horsepower more than the respective S-models. Both of these very special new models come with a wide range of exclusive features highlighted by the striking design of the car. Limited to a production run of just 500 units, the Boxster S Porsche Design Edition 2 comes all in white.

The Cayman S Sport, a truly unique Sports Coupé limited to just 700 units in production, is more colourful and even more sporting and dynamic to behold. In this case the customer has the choice of no less than six special non-metallic colours, among them the spectacular colours green and orange featured on the latest 911 GT3 RS. Over and above the 303-bhp six-cylinder boxer engine, particularly Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM) featured as standard and lowering the entire body of the car by ten millimetres or almost 0.4 inches, as well as five-millimetre spacer rings behind the 19-inch-SportDesign, wheels ensure truly impressive driving dynamics.

The engine beneath the lid is however the even more dynamic power plant carried over from the Cayenne GTS, developing maximum output of 405 bhp (298 kW) at 6500 rpm and peak torque of 500 Newton-metres (Nm) (369 lb-ft) at 3500 revs.
