A 2024 Porsche 718 Cayman GT4 RS ordered in paint-to-sample Oslo Blue over a Black interior with blue and green Sonderwunsch tartan inserts is being offered for sale in Canada. The car, which has covered 3,600 kilometres, is presented by the seller on behalf of its current owner and comes with a build sheet, service records, two keys, a battery tender, and accessories.
The GT4 RS sits at the top of the 718 Cayman range, distinguished from the contemporary GT4 by lightweight rear glass, vented front fenders, additional upper intakes, and a larger swan-neck rear wing. This example was specified with the Weissach Package, denoted by titanium tailpipes and exposed carbon-fibre weave on the front lid, intakes, side mirror housings, and wing. The package, along with a front-axle lift system and Porsche Ceramic Composite Brakes, added nearly CAD$28,000 to the total price.
The paint-to-sample Oslo Blue finish was a CAD$16,830 option. The car also features LED headlights with the Porsche Dynamic Lighting System, rear parking sensors, auto-dimming mirrors with an integrated rain sensor, the Chrono Package, a Sport exhaust system, 20-inch forged wheels, and a Bose sound system. The seller notes a scuff on the clear paint protection film on the front bumper cover and a ding in the grille mesh above it.
Inside, nearly CAD$10,000 in Sonderwunsch options accent the cockpit, including the green and blue tartan seat inserts and illuminated Sonderwunsch-branded matte carbon-fibre door sill guards. The carbon-fibre bucket seats are upholstered in Black leather with Deep Sea Blue seatbelts and « Weissach RS » headrest embroidery. The dashboard, console, and doors are trimmed in Race-Tex, and the interior also includes carbon-fibre trim, a Bose surround-sound system, and Porsche Communication Management with navigation. The optional Light Design Package added LED lighting in the overhead console, door handles, door storage compartments, footwells, and vanity mirrors. Cloth and rubber floor mat sets are included in the sale.
The Race-Tex-wrapped steering wheel features a yellow centring stripe and fronts a central tachometer with a 9,000-rpm redline, flanked by a 330-km/h speedometer and a configurable digital display. Shift paddles flank the wheel, and the car was ordered with a leather steering column casing. The Chrono Package adds a stopwatch atop the dashboard. The digital odometer indicates 3,600 kilometres.
Power comes from a mid-mounted naturally aspirated 4.0-litre flat-six, factory rated at 493 horsepower and 331 lb-ft of torque. The oil was changed and the spark plugs were replaced in September 2026, while the brake fluid was changed in the same month. Power is routed to the rear wheels through a seven-speed PDK dual-clutch transaxle, and the car is equipped with Porsche Torque Vectoring and a mechanically locking differential. Forged 20-inch alloy wheels are mounted with Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tyres.
The build sheet lists factory options and an estimated total retail price of CAD$255,030. A US Carfax report is free of accidents or other reported damage, and the car is being offered on its Manitoba registration, which serves as an ownership document in the province. The sale includes service records, a battery tender, two key fobs, and accessories.
