You can still find a 986 spare and they will fit over the engine compartment or rear trunk,leaning forward into the cabin. Last I checked they will not fit in the Cayman Frunk. No really great options to carry one unless you want to rack it on top Baja 1000 style.
FWIW I have been running around the barren desert all over Mojave, Southern Nevada, and Arizona in my Porsche for 13 years with no spare and never needed one. I do run good tires, inflated properly, and carry a 12v compressor, tire plugs, and slime. I have picked up 3 nails/screws in those years but always just kept the air at 30psi and drove it to a tire shop a few days later. The tires rarely needed the air topped off and were practically self sealing on their own.
Pick your poison. When in doubt, take the SUV instead.
