Design wise, the SportDesign Package puts on a unique front end with a newly designed front spoiler and rear apron. Of course the unmistakable carbon-fibre stripes and the contrasting black accents on the door handles and centrally positioned black tailpipes complete the look. Focusing on further details, the headlights are LED units with Porsche Dynamic Light System Plus to ensure optimum visibility. As with current Porsche signature head and tail lamps, the four spot DRLs and brake lights at the rear leaves a lasting impression.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"width: 100%; height: 100%;\" src=\"https:\/\/carsomemy.s3.amazonaws.com\/News\/Porsche%20718%20Cayman%20SportDesign\/718c%20sds%20rims.gif\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Customers will be able to choose between the Carrera S or Carrera Sport Wheel designs for the 20-inch wheels.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"font-size: 22px;\">What about the interior?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"width: 100%; height: 100%;\" src=\"https:\/\/carsomemy.s3.amazonaws.com\/News\/Porsche%20718%20Cayman%20SportDesign\/Porsche%20718%20Cayman-30.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"width: 100%; height: 100%;\" src=\"https:\/\/carsomemy.s3.amazonaws.com\/News\/Porsche%20718%20Cayman%20SportDesign\/Porsche%20718%20Cayman-29.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The cabin is carbon decorative with black leather for that sleek premium look. Carbon is seen in the door panels, centre console and the centre trim that runs across the dashboard. The only separator to the cabin is the centre armrest which is wrapped in suede and embossed with the brand name. There\u2019s 14-way power seats with comfort memory foam for both passengers, 10-speaker Bose Surround Sound System with 505 watts of power for the most immersive sound experience.
