Summary.
Life is now open 24 hours.
Summary.

We’ll let the 718 legend be just that for


now. And we’ll turn our attention instead
to what awaits us in the great outdoors.
To all the cities of this world, and to all
the world beyond those cities. To the
more than 35 million kilometres of road,
with their countless twists and turns. And
to being right in the centre of it all. In a
mid-engined sports car that conveys with
every fibre exactly what it is: insatiable.

The legend lives on. In the new


718 Boxster and 718 Cayman.
For the sport of it.
