We just saw the 2009 Porsche Cayman and Boxster at the 2008 LA Auto Show less then a month ago. Porsche today announced that pricing on both 2009 models has gone up by almost $2,000. The 2009 Porsche Boxster starts at $47,550 while the 2009 Porsche Cayman starts at $51,250.

Throw the “S” on the back of each model (and of course more power under the hood) and the price jumps up by $10,000. If you don’t know how to drive a manual, Porsche will offer you its new 7-speed dual-clutch automatic PDK transmission for an additional $3,420.

If you want a navigation system get ready to drop $3,110 and another $695 for Bluetooth hands-free. Universal audio interface (iPod, USB, AUX) will go for $440; XM Satellite Radio will carry a price tag of $750; adaptive bi-xenon lights will cost you $1,560; mechanical locking rear differential will run you $950; Sport Chrono Package with a manual transmission or with the PDK will cost $960 or $1,320 respectively; a heated steering wheel can be added for $90; and heated seats and ventilated seats will sell for $500 and $800 respectively.
