6 Months With The Cayman GT4 RS: My Favorite Porsche of This Generation

To Contact Fastr Media: fastrmedia.com
In today's video, I embark on a reflective journey as I share my 6-month experience with the Cayman GT4 RS. As the Miami streets become my backdrop, I delve into why this masterpiece might just be the magnum opus of Porsche's modern lineup. From its invigorating sound to its riveting performance, this GT4 RS not only outshines the 992 GT3 RS for me but sets a new benchmark altogether. It's not just about numbers or raw power, it's about the immersive driving experience. With the symphony from its carbon intake, the visceral 9K RPM thrill, and the unparalleled emotion it evokes, I'm convinced this will be the iconic Porsche that future enthusiasts will reminisce about. Come along as I navigate Miami's scenic routes, demonstrating just what makes this Porsche the pinnacle of automotive engineering and a pure joy to own.

Bought this car because of your first video on it. Best decision I ever made regarding a vehicle. It’s never leaving my collection.

[@MiamiMiles]

Awesome my friend. Happy you are enjoying it, if you haven’t bought an exhaust, that makes it even better 😁

[@thy306]

So great to see your channel and car collection evolve. Definitely need to try one of these someday. I dream about it on track. Never sick of your content, brother.

[@MiamiMiles]

Thank you my friend. Happy you enjoyed it. Can’t wait for you to experience the GT4RS. Lmk when the Miami trip is planned 😎

[@R8Best-gr6mi]

Love it bro! Honestly, I used to be a gt3 and 3rs type guy, but after seeing your videos and exhaust on the 4rs, the 4rs is my favorite porsche. Can't wait for more 4rs and 458 content!

[@MiamiMiles]

Just made a Vs video for both. Gonna be freaking sick. Appreciate you always taking the time to comment here on the channel

[@Cobblepot101]

You’re my favorite car KZbinr. I always enjoy watching your content ( especially the Porsche content ) keep up the great work, God bless m8 :^)

[@MiamiMiles]

Thank you my friend. Appreciate your feedback 👍🏻

[@alexanderhong3928]

hahaha Love the commentary Mickey... got my 4RS and Pete convinced me on that BCFabs Exhaust / OAPs.. can't wait!!!

[@MiamiMiles]

Can’t wait for you to get it 😎 you will love the Uncle Pete setup

[@yd5016]

Bro you always rock 🔥 like nobody else but in this vid you even outdid yourself f.. yeah! What an amazing machine and exhaust!!!!

[@MiamiMiles]

Thank you my friend for your feedback. Appreciate you!

[@alenaalena13]

Well done Mickie. Have had mine for 12 months and agree it is epic. As you only have straight roads, I suppose you need to find a few roundabouts to give you a curve so you can enjoy how this car likes to dance around corners, almost skating above the ground.

[@MiamiMiles]

Yes it does. I drove it on the track and it was epic.

[@johnpavlus784]

100% agree. Just took the 4RS to Circuit of the Americas and I couldn’t stop smiling, sweating, and swooning over every aspect of the 4RS. Totally agree with some motion under threshold breaking and some understear BUT I’m thinking about doing the Manthey upgrade and I heard it helps a lot. Also, haven’t really messed with my track alignment and downforce settings yet, probably do that first.

[@MiamiMiles]

That solves the issue. I was told an alignment and tow links will also really help the issue

[@wallstbull1]

Give it a track alignment with max down for Settings… Huge difference. I run Road America and it’s an absolute beast.

[@BarAthleteYT]

I'd really love to see more videos about the Porsche 992 GT3 RS. It's an amazing car, and I'm eager to see more content about it.

[@MiamiMiles]

I will try to get one filmed for you. 🤞

[@Xiaoxu1125]

Great job, love this review. Please Please get a Sypder RS to review, looking forward to your opinion on it.

[@MiamiMiles]

The moment I can, ima get my hands on it

[@wallstbull1]

Awesome clip Mickey! Can’t wait for my Soul package. Competition headers/catted over axles plus the resonated race exhaust. No valves.🤙🏻 Also, just had a track alignment at Kelly Moss here in Madison. Cannot wait to get it back up to Road America this spring… Absolutely loving this fucking car

[@MiamiMiles]

Can’t wait for you to get your Soul package either if you haven’t already. I went full straight pipe last week and 🤯

Didn’t buy one yet haha. It’s still on the horizon 👍🏻

[@rnlbluernlblue1380]

Love your videos!!! I have a GT4RS and a 458 too! Love them both! I will probably do the exhaust next. Video just doesn't do the sound justice on this car in stock form. I think when more people experience them first hand this car will skyrocket in value!

[@MiamiMiles]

Agreed.

[@michellegulbransen2228]

Awesome video 😘

[@MiamiMiles]

Thanks for making it possible for me to make it 😍

[@flat6garage913]

Love it. Just curious if you’ve ever driven a 981S with upgraded headers/exhaust and any comparisons. Obviously the 4RS is next level but how much more insane is it?

[@MiamiMiles]

I had a 981 GT4 with similar mods. Not even close my friend. The only think that compares to this is the DeMan GT4

[@plife911]

Goat spec 🎉 🐐

[@jlmejido]

Hi, anyone knows what´s the ground clearance of the front bumper in normal position and with the axle lift system activated?. I will really appreciate this information. Thanks.

[@user-qy1hh1ht9c]

That harsh ride you're noticing is due to those trendy large diameter wheels all the rage lately. The tradeoff for looks is a tire with little side wall and the harsh ride. I solved it for my Cayman with a set of Apex Racing Wheels in 18" diameter and the tallest tire that fit in the wheel well, and harsh ride solved. The car instantly became more compliant, inspiring confidence in those stutter bumps. If you notice, NASCAR, INDYCAR, F1 and IMSA cars do not run those short side wall tires.

[@joshlaneracing]

Man seeing only up to 93 octane hurts me haha. We get up to 100 here in New Zealand

[@stav1s]

amazing video lol

[@du3lcitiz3n]

What an amazing machine.

[@MiamiMiles]

Indeed it is

[@Iron_jumpman]

Stunning car !! Do you think just getting the valved rear would be a good start or you just go for the whole setup up with the cats, over axil pipes and valved rear? Your car sounds otherworldly! Cheers. Love your videos

[@MiamiMiles]

Thank you for your comment. Do the whole thing if you want to really savor the upgrade. The car is a different animal

[@wallstbull1]

I agree with Mickey. I just ordered: - Soul competition headers - Soul catted over axle pipe - Soul race resonated (no valves) muffler/exhaust. It adds a ton to the car. But if you want the most bang for your buck on a budget, order the Soul competition over axle pipes.

[@MiamiMiles]

@@wallstbull1 I'm currently installing the competition OAP's with resonators The previous OAP's didn't have resonators. Can't wait to hear what this machine sounds like ;)

[@wallstbull1]

⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠@@MiamiMiles sweet! why did you decide on the valved instead of the non valved race muffler?

[@manishmkt]

Can't believe that it has already been 6 months. All thanks to Uncle P. 9:04 One of the BEST transmission for sure, just freaking see the the RPM needle went from 4K to 7K in less than 2 seconds. 11:37 That's PORSCHE MAGIC. 13:43 😝😝

Thank you for your comment my friend. Just an unreal ride.

[@MTbone7]

Cool vid. Make sure you clean up that gas spill

[@MiamiMiles]

[@Drscurly]

Awesome stuff! How does it compare to the 997.2 GT3RS? Analog perfection vs more digital GT4RS with steering electric and pdk? Basicly if you could only have one which would give the most smiles?

[@MiamiMiles]

Gonna make a video. I don’t know yet haha.. have never driven them back to back. Video coming in next couple of weeks

[@Drscurly]

@@MiamiMiles Looking forward to it!

[@BananaJDM]

You can get some nice roads in Florida but it's out near Daytona to St Augustine in the back roads. But 90% of the roads in FL are straight lines

[@MiamiMiles]

Yep. Those roads are crazy. I’ve driven them. Wish they were down the street from here

[@Leowavekid]

how legal is your set up…. What ahout Porsche warranty with these pipes.. Sounds glorious…. fill me with details 🙏🙏…… I Recieved my car a week ago…. sounds great .. but there is something missing in the low frequqncies i loved n my 991.2 GT3RS… Have You driven a 991.2 GT3 RS… How does this mode compare to it …. ad effect on warranty! and epa legality … Hope u share some thoughts. on bang on the buck..

[@MiamiMiles]

If you like loud but still livable I would go competition headers, catted OAP’s and valved rear section from Soul Performance. No check engine light, insane sound and perfectly legal. I’ve learned that the GT4RS will never sound like a GT3. The way the exhaust is routed makes it very difficult to have the same yummy frequencies. If you want louder but not too loud, just go competition over axle pipes and valved rear section

[@taufiqueahmed3242]

What about the warranty. Had mine a year at 10k in the clock. Sold my JCR exhaust without fitting as warranty would be void. Had the car in the garage twice already with minor issues

[@rabulc]

Epic

[@MiamiMiles]

Thank you 🙏🏻

[@luciengutierrez431]

My cousin sold his GT4 for a BMW track car. I just got a 997.1 S and have a 1M. I’ve thought of selling both for a GT3 but I’ve also considered a GT4. Thoughts? Sick video. I have soul catless pipes on my 997.1.

[@MiamiMiles]

Great set up

Stock exhaust sounds good to me, still 😇

[@TraceurRobitza]

Yes.. people don't realize that.. what Porsche are doing with their sound is amazing.. the regulations are insane and they are still putting a lot of R&D into it to just sound good. Complaining about sound.. just rev another brand.. cars like RS3 ; M8 ; etc sounds like.... a vacuum cleaner..

[@MiamiMiles]

It does sound good. Especially with the windows up. It just doesn’t sound great. Now my car does. Maybe I’m crazy, but the Soul Performance setup makes this car one of the all time greats

[@re1v3r]

Ya, you're not wrong, Miles. I'm just a simple man 😁 I'd copy your setup, tbh

[@killian7498]

I am hesitating between a 4RS and 992 GT3. I prefer the sound and aesthetic of the 911... Also, I heard it drives better, more comfortable and more capable. But I like the rawness of the 4RS. Did you guys try both cars ? What would be your advice on this ? edit : I would only track it like twice per year, just like 3 or 4 sessions of 10 minutes.

[@MiamiMiles]

4RS with Manthey alignment all day

[@elfletcha]

Why no seat belt with the first passenger 😬. Great video, awesome car!

[@MiamiMiles]

He wouldn’t listen to me haha

[@alijahdessasure4521]

Brother let me know asap should I trade my hellcat jail break for a gt4 rs even with current mark up???

[@MiamiMiles]

Completely different cars. Depends on how much you are getting the 4RS for. Hellcat is more practical and easy to make really fast. It’s also so much fun. The 4RS is a precision tool. It’s more satisfying to drive.

[@jedichurn]

Another YTer said it’s too loud in the cabin as a stock car, he sold it. In your opinion is it too loud? He had migraines after he drove

[@MiamiMiles]

Nope. Not too loud. Just right 😏

[@agooberss]

Luv your passion, but not even close to keeping up with a Huracan umless you get an M engineering tune. Although, now it does sound as good. GEt the tune then race those other super cars. Start making calls and after the video comparison you will add alot more subscribers.That's what you should be doing since you are part of the rare few that likes to modify as I do. Good Luck!!!

[@MiamiMiles]

Can’t tune the 4RS yet. Already tried with M. That being said this car is mid 7’s 60-130 with this exhaust. Same shit as a Huracan. Would be fun to race one 😀

I did end up getting the GT4. I had to get a manual and the RS manual is not an option. Beats the shit out of that EvoraGT! 🤣🙃

[@MiamiMiles]

It’s an awesome car. I love the GT4. It’s definitely better than the Evora

[@Miguel-Migs]

@@MiamiMiles by a long shot! Better quality, a more emotional engine and the mechanical grip is far better. I am working with Soul to get the right solution for the exhaust and a tune. I already have the OAP’s and that is significantly better sound.

[@jameswillard1]

@@Miguel-MigsI don’t think there is any car that “beats the shit out of” an Evora GT. It has one of the best ride/handling compromises ever, best steering feel next to a Mclaren and isn’t geared as ridiculously long as the GT4. I’m not bashing on a 718 GT4 whatsoever as I previously owned one (and a 981 GT4 version before that) just saying it’s not head and shoulders above an Evora GT and in my honest opinion slightly less fun.

[@Miguel-Migs]

@@jameswillard1 I used to think the same when I had the EvoraGT… until I drove a GT4.

[@Miguel-Migs]

@@jameswillard1 ownership is a hassle to say the least. Waiting 1.5 years to get headlights replaced under warranty after three headlight swap is an absolute joke for a $100K car. They can’t support their own cars. That alone is enough for me to get the hell away from the brand. Lotus… Lots Of Trouble Usually Serious.

Unpopular opinion. The 4RS looks much better without the Weissach.

Only problem with non Weissach is that the intakes turn into a hole. Looks kinda weird. Besides that, I don’t think you’re off base

[@Airbag1010674]

On the road the 718 Spyder is the best car. Period. The powerband of the GT3 motor is too high-strung for the street. The 718 Spyder/GT4 is so much better.

[@MiamiMiles]

IMO. Spyder is slow, gearing is too long, car sounds terrible stock. I found myself bored driving it. The 4RS is 10x the experience of the Spyder.

[@jameswillard1]
