When we got behind the wheel<\/a> of Porsche's<\/a> lightweight and (relatively, for Porsche anyway) low-buck Carrera T<\/a>, we were thrilled at how amazingly fun and driver-focused it was, but it left us wondering what a T version of the 718 twins<\/a> would be like. Thankfully, Porsche seems to have wondered the same thing because it announced the 718 Boxster<\/a> and Cayman<\/a> T models on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

What exactly goes into a "T" model? Frankly, it's more about what comes out. Unlike the more costly GTS model<\/a>, the T is based on the non-S version of the 718. It gets the base engine, which produces a still-healthy 300 horsepower from its turbocharged flat-four engine. Buyers can choose to leave things out of the car too, like the stereo.<\/p>\n

Light most lightweight Porsches, the 718 T's feature fabric door pulls and a standard Sport Chrono package, and lack fancy 18-way adjustable seats. You only get the basics here. It comes standard with Porsche's Active Suspension Mangement and a 20-millimeter drop in ride height. Porsche's six-speed manual gearbox with mechanical-locking rear diff and torque vectoring is standard though PDK will be available as an option.<\/p>\n

Aesthetically, there are a few select "T" decals to let passersby know that you are a human being of refined taste and driving skill as well as some ultrahandsome wheels and gray mirror caps. This isn't a car that shouts about how special it is from the rooftops.<\/p>\n

Porsche hasn't released any pricing information, but the Carrera T comes in at around $11,000 more than a base-model Carrera without options. It seems likely that the markup here would be similar or less. If you missed the boat on the Cayman GT4 or the Boxster Spyder<\/a>, don't sleep on the T.<\/p>\n
