2025 Porsche 718 Spyder RS
The 2025 Porsche 718 Spyder RS arrives as a singular, unabashed celebration of open-air performance, born from motorsport pedigree and sculpted with breathtaking intent. At Porsche Lincolnwood, Illinois, we recognize this machine not merely as a convertible sports car, but as a distilled essence of what it means to drive—pure, unfiltered, elemental.

Trim Levels
The 718 Spyder RS is offered in one meticulously calibrated trim—no compromises, no dilution. It is lean, focused, and richly adorned with RS-specific aerodynamic refinements. The forged aluminum front lid, with a distinct center-mounted NACA duct, whispers of GT-level cooling efficiency. Carbon fiber reinforced plastic components in the front fenders and doors help to shed unnecessary weight. The sculpted side blades direct airflow with ruthless intent. A fixed rear spoiler replaces the manual unit from the standard Spyder, delivering additional downforce for track precision. Exterior color palettes stretch from the iconic Arctic Grey and Shark Blue, to bespoke Paint-to-Sample selections, reflecting Porsche’s deep understanding that performance must also be visceral to the eye.

Engine
Lurking at the heart of the 2025 718 Spyder RS is the Naturally Aspirated 4.0L Flat-Six engine borrowed from the 911 GT3. This mechanical masterpiece spins to 9,000 rpm, delivering 493 hp and 331 lbs.-ft. of torque—brutal, instantaneous, intoxicating. Dry sump lubrication, individual throttle bodies, and an acoustically tuned lightweight stainless-steel sports exhaust system bring every ounce of motorsport heritage to the public road. It’s not just powerful—it’s symphonic. No turbos, no artifice. Just relentless, precision-bred combustion force routed through a 7-speed PDK transmission for uninterrupted fury.

Performance
With a curb weight trimmed to just 3,214 lbs., every aspect of the 718 Spyder RS feels urgent, alive, and beautifully honed. It lunges from 0 to 60 mph in a staggering 3.2 seconds and carves corners with a surgical finesse born from the Porsche Active Suspension Management system, which can adjust and level the ride height when paired with air suspension. The front axle lift system ensures clearance when needed, while the standard RS-specific chassis tuning delivers laser-like turn-in and feedback that borders on telepathic. Optional magnesium wheels and the Weissach Package shed even more mass for those chasing apexes with religious zeal. The lightweight fabric roof stows manually in seconds, underscoring the car’s purposeful ethos.

Interior
Inside, the 718 Spyder RS strips away frivolity in favor of authenticity. Full bucket seats wrapped in Race-Tex with contrasting stitching grip the driver tightly. Lightweight door pulls replace conventional handles, echoing its track-born soul. The dash layout is minimalist, driver-centric, and tactile. Optional deviated stitching, carbon interior trim, and bespoke personalization options allow subtle infusions of individuality without sacrificing intent. There's no need for excessive luxury here—this is a cockpit, not a lounge. Yet, every surface still whispers craftsmanship, from the soft-touch materials to the aluminum gear selectors.

Safety Features
While unapologetically performance-first, the 718 Spyder RS integrates a suite of safety and driver assistance features engineered with the same level of precision. Porsche Stability Management (PSM) remains at the core, tuned to intervene only when necessary, preserving the purity of mechanical grip. Advanced airbag systems, side impact beams, and integrated roll-over protection uphold Porsche’s unrelenting commitment to safety—even in a roofless chassis. Tire Pressure Monitoring, rearview camera, ParkAssist front and rear, and a Porsche vehicle tracking system round out a comprehensive yet unobtrusive safety envelope.
