Porsche 718 Spyder 2026 Price in UAE

The 718 Spyder RS is the open-topped counterpart to the Cayman GT4 RS, built by Porsche's GT department rather than its road-car division. It takes the naturally aspirated 4.0-litre flat-six from the track cars, puts it behind two seats in a lightweight roadster shell, and drives the rear wheels only.

How much does the 718 Spyder cost in the UAE?

There is one specification and it costs AED 593,300, which removes the usual trim-ladder decision entirely. What you are paying for is the 4.0 L naturally aspirated flat-six, the GT-department chassis and a manually operated lightweight roof, rather than a longer equipment list. Options are where the price moves from here, not trim levels.

Which 718 Spyder should you order?

Since there is a single RS specification, the decisions are all on the options sheet, and two matter more than the rest. Carbon-ceramic brakes are worth it if the car will see heat, and the lightweight bucket seats change how the car feels far more than any cosmetic pack. Everything else is preference, and the roof is deliberately manual, so try it before you order.

718 Spyder or 911 Carrera?

The Spyder is the more special car and the one people will still be talking about in a decade, because a naturally aspirated GT engine in an open two-seater is not something Porsche will build indefinitely. A 911 Carrera is more usable every day, has rear seats and a powered roof, and costs less. The 911 Carrera GTS is the closer rival on pace.

What does a 718 Spyder cost to run in the UAE?

Budget for a GT car rather than a sports car. The quoted 7 Km/L tells you most of what you need to know about a high-revving naturally aspirated six, and brakes, tyres and scheduled work follow the same logic — these are consumables set by how hard the car is used, not by the odometer. Al Nabooda Automobiles looks after sales and service across Dubai and Sharjah.

Does the 718 Spyder hold its value?

It holds about 69% after three years, which sits marginally under the roughly 70% typical of exotic supercars here, and about 54% after five against roughly 56% for that same group. That is a solid rather than exceptional result on paper, and it is worth saying that specification and originality move individual cars far more than the model average does at this level.

This is a car bought on character, not on the numbers, and the combination of a GT-department flat-six and a manual roof is the entire argument. Check any example for track use and originality before committing. Rarities like this pass through the used Porsche listings without staying long.
