Frequently Asked Questions

01

What are the main differences between the 2024 Porsche 718 Cayman and 718 Boxster?

The 2024 Porsche 718 Cayman and 718 Boxster share the same platform, powertrains, and fundamentally the same driving experience, but differ structurally. The Cayman is a coupe with a fixed steel roof (or carbon fibre on the GT4 RS), while the Boxster is a soft-top roadster. The Cayman's fixed roof provides marginally greater structural rigidity — a measurable advantage during track driving. The Cayman also offers two trunks — front (150 L) and rear (270 L for a total of 425 L) — versus the Boxster's combined 280 L, making it more practical for extended trips. The Cayman is typically approximately $3,000 less expensive than the equivalent Boxster in Canada — the base Cayman starts around $83,200. GTS 4.0 versions of both use the magnificent naturally aspirated 4.0-litre flat-six producing 394 hp. Porsche has confirmed the current 718 generation will be the last combustion-powered version before transitioning to an electric platform.

02

Does the 2024 Porsche 718 Cayman GTS 4.0 justify its premium over the Cayman S?

The price delta between the 2024 Porsche 718 Cayman S and the GTS 4.0 is approximately $25,000 to $30,000 in Canada — with the GTS 4.0 exceeding $125,000 before options. This premium is justified by several qualitative advantages. The 4.0-litre naturally aspirated flat-six in the GTS 4.0 is widely considered one of the finest engines in current production, offering a distinct acoustic character and linear power delivery from idle to 8,000 rpm that the turbocharged 2.5-litre in the S simply cannot replicate. Performance is also meaningfully stronger: 0-100 km/h in 4.1 seconds with the manual. The GTS package includes PASM sport suspension as standard, stiffer anti-roll bars, 6-piston front Brembo brake calipers, and the sport exhaust. For buyers who regularly attend track days at Canadian circuits like Canadian Tire Motorsport Park or Circuit Mont-Tremblant, or who drive the winding roads of the Laurentians or Okanagan, the GTS 4.0 premium is considered money well spent.

03

What are the ownership and insurance costs for a 2024 Porsche 718 Cayman in Canada?

Maintenance for the 2024 Porsche 718 Cayman follows Porsche's scheduled service intervals at 10,000 km or one year. A basic annual service (synthetic oil change, filters, inspection) at a Canadian Porsche dealership costs between $800 and $1,400. The 40,000 km service including spark plugs, air filter, and brake system inspection can reach $2,000 to $3,000. Optional Porsche Ceramic Composite Brakes (PCCB, approximately $8,000 option) are outstanding on track but replacement pads cost approximately $2,500 per axle. For insurance in Canada, annual premiums for a Cayman GTS 4.0 vary significantly by province and driver profile: expect $3,500 to $6,500 per year in Ontario and Quebec for a 35-year-old driver with a clean record. Agreed-value policies for seasonal use are available through specialty insurers and may offer cost savings. Porsche Approved Certified Pre-Owned warranties are available for used 718s through the dealer network.
