Amazing review!!!

Great in car and sound was raw and unreal.

what a beautiful intro

Amazing ! Can’t wait for mine !!!

[@rayestefania3725]

This car may be one of the best sports cars ever made! It is so nice to see the Cayman finally get the engine it deserves. No more Cayman complex but it is unfortunate that most of us will never be able to own one. That being said, this car is amazing and it is awesome to see the Cayman finally able to compete with the 911 and honestly, I would rather have this over a GT3.

[@Rob.One.]

what a dream car.... Porsche + mid engine + RS Development, can't be disappointing.

[@JoeAchilles1]

Absolutely!

[@tanner1ie]

The only disappointing thing about them is that they won't make enough of them - they should sell as many as people can afford to buy, but no, just because it's an RS, they'll only sell a certain amount to keep them "exclusive" (which their price and performance level already does!) - but still all in, it's great and great that it exists 😀🤘 .

[@roryjones1986]

i think the car will fetch even more, even a gts 992 is 50 over, has to be said this car looks and sounds brilliant, overall a massive fan

[@JoeAchilles1]

I fear you might be right 😬

[@GeorgeSmith-kv1ki]

Not many induction sounds beat the E46 M3 CSL but I think this one combined with that flat 6 does it 🤯🙇‍♂️

[@JoeAchilles1]

Haha yep agreed!

[@cartrader3002]

One of your best that mate. Proper video and oh boy what a car. Very jealous 😜

[@JoeAchilles1]

Thanks legend 👊❤️🙏

[@eSysmanSuperYachts]

The addition of the air intakes makes the 4RS like my 718 Spyder (and every Boxster ever) in terms of that blind spot. Small price to pay for that engine.

[@kristians2704]

this and the GT3 are the two single best cars on the market rn

[@JoeAchilles1]

Agreed! (if you only need 2 seats!)

[@Nord_Mann]

@@JoeAchilles1 one of each would do nicely for my family of four. The cat could go in the rear of the GT3👌🏻

[@RamjeProductions]

This car is impossible to get your hands on. Porsche only allows buyers who have previously bought an RS. The dealer mark-up is absolutely ridiculous as well. The GT4 RS will only increase in value over the years as this will be an collectable. Porsche can say that they don't have a limited production run but the sad reality is that's simply not true. In this day and age they need to sell a lot of electric VW I.D. models to be able to sell a few GT4 RS's. I'm very glad that Porsche allowed Joe to review this car. You deserve it mate!

[@ronretired282]

Thanks Ramje. I didn't think about the electric issue offsetting production of ICE cars. Good point.

[@StefABtv]

Be right back just had to change my pants, had a bit of an accident… this thing sounds like thunder mate. Honestly so pleased Porsche made it.

[@JoeAchilles1]

😂😂😂 Mate I was changing mine all day long, forgot to mention that in the video though 👌👊❤️

[@HTH88]

You've done it again mate! There are cars and there are cars - this GT4RS is stratospheric when it comes to engineering mastery converting to on-road fun and capability. You've nailed this and of all the great reviews you have had the fortune of doing I'm guessing this one felt just that little extra special - and understandably so. Careful - you may now be asked to become a Porsche Ambassador too - I'm sure your reaction at 12:13 would convince a number of people to hand over the money:) I'm thinking this has to be in my garage next to the M2C. She's a special thing. Thanks again for a brilliant brilliant review mate.

[@Musti.1973]

Thank you for sharing Joe, absolutely beautiful car. And I love that sound track from the engine. Pure satisfaction. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

[@breezeracing8015]

What a car! I would have one of these over the GT3 all day long. Not that I would be able to buy either! Such a shame most will be bought just to sell on and make a profit. Would be much better if they went to proper petrolheads that genuinely want to drive and enjoy them.

[@cephasmakuzva]

Porsche Gt3 was double list for an early one. I remember Amari from Amari Supercars had a "25 mile" on the clock car, 3rd porsche gt3 in the uk advertised for 270k. Double list. It was 140k. Meaning that customer got the car early (3rd one in the UK) on the back of a truck and sold it to a used car dealer with 25 miles on it for huge overd.

[@ianmcwilliams6453]

Wonderful!! My favourite car on planet earth and I'm glad that a friend of mine (that's you Joe!) has driven it. Thanks for taking the viewers along with you. If you ever want to do a back to back with my 981 GT4 with any car I would be honoured.

[@adamkhan5274]

Best car/ video you' ve ever done?? Superb content mate and the audio was ace!! Drove a manual 981 gt4 years ago and from the moment I pulled away it felt like the "best" road car i'd ever driven. Veyrons Mclaren F1s and everything. Immediate connection like an extention of your body only the best single seater race cars give you. Can only imagine what this is like with 500hp and 9k rpm. Heaven.

[@LondonGT3]

Super video Joe and well done for getting the support of Porsche UK to lend you the car. You really deserve this success.

[@pedrowhite6684]

Hands down, the best on road review of the GT4RS! Sublime review for a swan song car!! Well done! I cannot get that induction noise out of my head-thankfully, in a good way.🥰😍

[@oruantseleballo9482]

What a machine, that intake sound is amazing!!!

[@Kompoism]

Wow wow wow... I'm glad Porsche let you drive this Joe, not just for your sake but because I got to watch my first proper video on this car here, and you did a great job. What a car!

[@plashiputarnik1]

Appreciate the quality content you're providing us with, Joe! Greetings from Bulgaria 🇧🇬

[@BryceBrown1]

Great vid! I was on the edge of my seat throughout! Beautiful machine 😍 Note... Dear Porsche, you could consider adding little cameras to those blind spots connected to a mini screen each side of the rear view mirror... perfection! Love that you have 'surround' induction sound ✅

[@thefamilyrobbo]

Congratulations fella. You're definitely getting some top gigs these days. The Cayman looks stunning. I think the visual (and weight) balance makes it more appealing than a 911 to me. Being more compact probably makes it easier on the type of roads you were driving on also - I would guess. Great video. Thanks 😊👍

[@phantom2k10]

You know what i appreciate about this channel? you hoon these epic vehicles whilst still presenting considerably professionaly lool.Great vid as always joe

[@RickTheSpud]

Wow, awesome mate! All of it - the car, your driving, that noise, the looks, your face during that launch, the edit, love it all! And well deserved to have the GT3RS for the day. Proper job. (PS. The blind spot thing doesn't bother me as a van driver so I'll take one! 😉)

Bravo Joe! Awesome video and car! Congrats!

[@SDK2006b]

An amazing road car. Just a shame 99.9% of the people who would like to buy one at retail can’t. Even though Porsche say it’s not limited it’s probably more likely getting a drive in LH’s F1 car than owning one of these.

[@brencelt]

That's not even that outlandish a statement. Porsche really do enjoy fuçking over genuine enthusiasts

[@colinw1591]

Excellent review Joe. Certainly difficult to see how the next all electric Cayman will compete as a driving experience with one of these.... at least you had the chance to drive it 👍

[@komi1834]

this cayman and mkv viper acr will go down as best petrol cars ever made, yes the new 911 is faster, same with amg gt black series, p1 lm, huracan performante, aventador svj, but these two just have that SOMETHING about them that while it doesn't make them faster it makes them better in eyes of a true enthusiast, closest thing to them is probably 488 pista, in my country gt4 rs drove prices of base cayman by 40% over sticker while it was only around 10% higher just a few months ago

[@aarongraham7177]

Same bit of road that a certain Mr Metcalfe likes to test cars on! What a car that is, I've had the pleasure of enjoying a passenger seat in a friend's GT3RS and the noise is addictive, would get you in trouble very handy!

I know I'm late to the party with this video (I've been away) but it made me laugh Joe. I had to turn on the subtitles when you were driving because I couldn't hear you - damned old age - but every time you stopped speaking and we could listen to the engine the subtitles said "Music." How apt and appropriate! Beautiful car and cracking review. Well done!

[@prowler13prowler]

Epic car & great editing Joe. Now wiping the tears from knowing i wont have one lol

[@christianb.4385]

Thank you for this cool video Joe. As for the dynamics of the car I believe the Porsche GT department goes further in terms of suspension by using more expensive, fancier and racier springs, dampers etc. Basically stuff that's built to deal with hard driving on mean kerbs or circuits like the Nurburgring. So that ability to cope with hardcore situations maybe translates into a relative comfort of driving on the road.

[@ronretired282]

Christian, I think you might be a little wrong in the suspension department. The GT4RS borrowed the engine from the GT3. However, they were not given the suspension attributes of the GT3.

[@christianb.4385]

@@ronretired282 yeah I never said they put GT3 suspension on the GT4 RS that wasn’t my point

That opening scene man👌🏼

[@jeebus2121]

The gearlever is that way because the gearbox is the 991 7-speed and requires a manual lever to engage gearing. The 992's 8-speed is fully electronic for selection.
