Weight-saving measures include an infotainment system delete (which is not available in the United States because of the mandatory backup-camera regulation), door pulls rather than interior handles, and simplified two-way-adjustable power seats with cloth inserts.

Porsche hasn't said what the total weight savings is.

Twenty-inch wheels painted in gray are standard, and the T versions are further set apart visually with special side graphics, gray mirrors, and the central exhaust finished in black.

There are also "T" logos scattered throughout the interior.

Exterior colors will include white, black, silver, red, yellow, Miami Blue, and Lava Orange.

Also standard are performance upgrades such as the lowered PASM sport suspension and the Sport Chrono package with additional driving modes.

Porsche hasn't released pricing for the 718 Boxster T and 718 Cayman T but does say that the models will represent a slight discount when compared to a base Boxster or Cayman equipped with these optional extras.

The 718 T models come standard with the 300-hp turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine from the base Boxster and Cayman, rather than the more powerful 2.5-liter from the S version.

Figure somewhere around $60,000 for the Cayman T and a few thousand dollars more for the Boxster T.

They're due to arrive sometime in 2019, and we should have more U.S.-specific details soon.
