SPIED: THE PORSCHE PANAMERA WILL CONTINUE ON WITH A THIRD GENERATION

The second generation Porsche Panamera has been on the market since 2017, so by Porsche standards it's getting a bit long in the tooth. Don't get me wrong, it's still a phenomenal car, but it's no longer the newest thing in the Porsche showroom, and sales continue to decline as the years go on and the Taycan continues to gain steam. So, it would …

IS THE NEW MACAN T THE SPORTY CUV YOU WANT?

Motor Trend. Car and Driver. Road and Track. They all loved the Porsche 718 Cayman GT4 when it was introduced back in 2016. Now they love it even more. Why? This year, Porsche offers the 718 Cayman GT4 with an amazing seven-speed dual-clutch transmission.

The 718 Cayman GT4 is the spiritual successor to the Porsche 911. Like the famous Porsche 911 (even the first ones way back in 1963), the 718 Cayman GT4 features Porsche’s legendary Boxer 6 engine. This water-cooled, naturally aspirated 4.0-litre engine delivers 414 horsepower and 317 lb-ft of torque.

How does that translate to real-world numbers? The 3,247-lb 718 Cayman GT4 zips from zero to 60 in 3.7 seconds and zooms through the quarter mile in 11.8 seconds at 117 mph. Top speed is 188 mph.
