Porsche Priced the 2025 718 Cayman at $75,400 and Kept the Clutch

Porsche priced the 2025 718 Cayman at $75,400. That is the starting MSRP on Porsche’s current USA 718 configurator. The footnote excludes options, taxes, title, registration, the delivery/processing/handling fee, dealer charges, and potential tariffs. Tax, title, and license are extra. This is the mid-engine coupe — not the 911 Carrera S Manual Autogonzo already covered, and not the PDK-only GT4 RS.

Available clutch on the Cayman card

This is the clutch graf, and Porsche’s current USA book still prints three pedals for the base 718 Cayman. The official model card tags the car Automatic/Manual — same badge on Style Edition, S, GTS 4.0, and the Boxster twins. Rear-wheel drive. The factory list still puts a seven-speed Porsche Doppelkupplung (PDK) in the equipment summary, but the gear-type line is not Automatic-only. GT4 RS and Spyder RS flip that story: those cards read Automatic only. If you want the stick in the 718 family while Porsche still sells it, you want Cayman, Cayman S, Cayman GTS 4.0, or a Boxster sibling — not the RS.

That keeps the mid-engine coupe on the same clutch map as Autogonzo’s recent 2027 911 Carrera S Manual — different platform, same idea: Porsche still knows some buyers want a lever. The 718 is the cheaper door into that habit.

300 hp base, mid-engine, from $75,400

Base 718 Cayman power on the USA configurator is 300 hp, with a claimed 0–60 mph in 4.7 seconds and a 171 mph top track speed on summer tires. Cayman S steps to 350 hp from $87,900 (4.2 seconds to 60). Cayman GTS 4.0 is the naturally aspirated six from $103,300 — 394 hp, 3.8 seconds to 60 with Sport Chrono. Pricing and the Automatic/Manual tags live on porsche.com/usa/models/718/configure; press stills sit on the Porsche Newsroom USA 718 Cayman page.

Base Cayman MSRP is $75,400 before destination. Add Porsche’s delivery, processing, and handling fee from the footnote, then tax, title, and options — including whichever gearbox the dealer actually prints on the window sticker. Three pedals are still on the official Automatic/Manual card. That is enough.
