Porsche priced the 2025 718 Boxster at $77,600. 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 soft-top twin of the 2025 718 Cayman Autogonzo already covered — same mid-engine layout, same Automatic/Manual badge, open air instead of a fixed roof.
Available clutch on the Boxster card
This is the clutch graf, and Porsche’s current USA book still prints three pedals for the base 718 Boxster. The official model card tags the car Automatic/Manual — same badge on Style Edition, S, and GTS 4.0, matching the Cayman 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. Spyder RS and Cayman GT4 RS flip that story: those cards read Automatic only. If you want the stick in the open 718 while Porsche still sells it, you want Boxster, Boxster Style Edition, Boxster S, or Boxster GTS 4.0 — not the RS.
That keeps the roadster 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 soft-top 718 is the cheaper door into that habit with the sky available at a button.
300 hp base, soft-top, from $77,600
Base 718 Boxster 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. Boxster Style Edition is from $84,200 at the same power. Boxster S steps to 350 hp from $90,000 (4.2 seconds to 60, 177 mph). Boxster GTS 4.0 is the naturally aspirated six from $105,500 — 394 hp, 3.8 seconds to 60 with Sport Chrono, 179 mph. Pricing and the Automatic/Manual tags live on porsche.com/usa/models/718/configure; press stills sit on the Porsche Newsroom USA 718 Boxster page.
Base Boxster MSRP is $77,600 before destination — $2,200 over the Cayman coupe twin. 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.
