Porsche has unveiled a limited edition version of their Cayman GT4, the Porsche 718 Cayman GT4 Sports Cup Edition. The car is being launched to celebrate the 15th anniversary of the Porsche Sports Cup, a series that has become a cornerstone for Porsche enthusiasts and amateur racers alike.
The 718 Cayman GT4 Sports Cup Edition will be available in a choice of black and white, and each color will come with multiple red highlights. These red accents are not just limited to the exterior; they extend to various elements of the interior, creating a cohesive and striking design that sets this edition apart from the standard models.
Exclusive Premiere at Hockenheimring
The sporty and exclusive model celebrated its premiere as part of a special event for Porsche fans at the Hockenheimring on Saturday, 12 October, 2019. With a large “Sportscar Together Day” event, the sports car manufacturer is celebrating both the opening of the new Porsche Experience Centre Hockenheimring and the season finale of the Porsche Sports Cup. The 718 Cayman GT4 Sports Cup Edition is available for a limited period from 14 October, 2019 in the 88 German Porsche Centres.
The Hockenheimring event was a grand affair, attracting Porsche enthusiasts from all over the world. The new Porsche Experience Centre at Hockenheimring offers fans and potential buyers a chance to experience the brand’s latest innovations and models in a dynamic and interactive environment. The “Sportscar Together Day” event featured a variety of activities, including track sessions, driving experiences, and a showcase of Porsche’s rich motorsport heritage.
Interior and Performance Upgrades
There are also upgrades to the interior of the car, which include unique design elements and high-quality materials that enhance the driving experience. The seats are upholstered in Alcantara with red stitching, and the dashboard features a special “Sports Cup Edition” badge. The steering wheel and gear lever are also adorned with red accents, adding to the car’s sporty aesthetic.
The 718 Cayman GT4 Sports Cup Edition comes with 20-inch satin gloss black wheels, which not only look stunning but also contribute to the car’s performance by reducing unsprung weight. These wheels are paired with high-performance tires that offer exceptional grip and handling, making the car a joy to drive on both the road and the track.
Under the hood, the 718 Cayman GT4 Sports Cup Edition is powered by a 4.0-liter flat-six engine that produces 420 horsepower. This engine is mated to a six-speed manual transmission, which provides a more engaging and connected driving experience. The car can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in just 4.2 seconds and has a top speed of 188 mph.
You can find out more details about it over at Porsche. The limited availability of this model makes it a highly sought-after collector’s item, and it is expected to sell out quickly. For those lucky enough to get their hands on one, the 718 Cayman GT4 Sports Cup Edition offers a unique blend of performance, exclusivity, and heritage.
