@@jason1225able hmmm i didnt have any issues with fitting with a helmet even before the tilting. My height tends to be from my long legs, i have a relatively normal length torso so i think thats where it helped me. That being said i did notice more headroom when i did tilt it back so it might help you.

I saw your video and the title got me. My ‘25 BGTS in at the port in Germany and I’m super excited about the pickup experience. Will be done at PEC ATL. When I saw how you walked up on your car in the video, my first reaction was WOW, OMG, why would Fremont do that???? Agree, I wouldn’t be happy either and yes, maybe small, but legit. I was happy to see you changed out that side marker. LOL. My car isn’t here and I already have the clear side markers.

I'm guessing your favorite flavor is vanilla? For that money, you could have a had a 997.2 911 in an actual color, low miles. With money left over for a truck to tow the car to your favorite track. Or a sorted 996 Turbo. After driving the GTS 4.0, I find it gutless below 4K RPM. God forbid anybody prefers the torque of the 2.5S, that it's not a "real" Porsche. That would be heresy. Forgot to mention my car. 2019 Cayman GTS. And no, it doesn't sound like a Subaru. Best wishes.

wind buffeting is because cars are designed to have the best wind coefficient, and that is with the windows closed. if you open a window or even 2, the wind buffeting will be worse the more aerodynamically designed the car is.

Hey there. I was following your channel since you had some S2000 content. I love the Cayman 981 GTS and GT4. Porsches are very reliable cars. Have you considered a pre-owned certified 981 GT4 or 718 GT4? With the pre-owned CPO cars you have the history to look back to for any pre-existing or past issues, and the strong CPO warranty. It is a way to enjoy the GT4 now as 2-3 years down the road many things can change---as far as pricing and availability of GT cars. Or maybe get back into a fun RWD car like the s2000. Happy New Year.
@Xxyion8611 ай бұрын
I did consider a used one however I need a PDK as my left foot can't handle daily driving a manual anymore and used prices matched new prices and I couldn't justify that. I have however been looking at used 991.1 GT3s so that might be what I switch to in a few years.
