Best Porsche Ever? - Cayman GT4 RS, GT3, or GT3RS | Everyday Driver

[@Wallstreetavarice]

There is no such thing as too much Porsche GT content. Especially when it comes from proper auto journalists

[@EverydayDriver]

Thank you! We appreciate you watching and taking the time to comment!

[@miamigt4922]

Epic episode! My GT4RS is scheduled to enter production 2 weeks from today (9-16). Can’t wait to get it on track, the break-in period is going to require a lot of self-control..

[@HouseOfPetrol]

We are waiting on our gt3 rs , coming 3rd quarter of 2023, it will be break-in , and straight to the nurburgring 😅 Enjoy your gt4 mate !

[@computercrack]

Enjoy guys!

[@thatcopenguy]

Here's a suggestion, use the break-in period on your way to a racetrack 😂

[@rogerdodgerxd]

Question, what jobs do you guys have to afford these cars? I plan on owning these cars in the future 😅❤

[@HouseOfPetrol]

@@thatcopenguy it's a possibility ;)

[@MrRoyck10]

The ultimate Porsche GT bar the hyper Porsche is the 718 GT4 RS with it’s superior midship engine and balance then the intoxicating sound from that engine is the pinnacle of engineering and craftsmanship.

[@ioniccolumn]

I was lucky enough to be in this specific GT4RS on track as a passenger. It was the experience of a lifetime; it is a game changer.

[@beakersgarage383]

No doubt! How you doing btw?

[@phattyhales]

What a beautiful noise it makes! Our in-car audio doesn't do it justice!

[@ioniccolumn]

You did a great job! Nothing can compare to hearing it in person.

[@tigim101]

The stuff of wet dreams. I’m jealous but also happy that you two got to enjoy this, you’re two of the best (if not the best) and most genuine automotive journalists out there. Thank You for the content.

[@EverydayDriver]

This is a huge compliment, thank you! We appreciate you watching and glad you connect with what we do!

[@aroundomaha]

Cool, unexpected content. I’ll never own any of these cars but love seeing the engineering and soul they have.

[@Closertotruth2]

I’m very blessed to have two of those beautiful sounding engines, 991.2 Touring and 718 Spyder. Just love the sounds and the third pedal.

[@jackholmes8105]

Im really happy you guys shot a 992 Gt3, GT4rs piece. Great work as usual guys.

[@EverydayDriver]

Thank you. We’re grateful to have been able to do it and appreciate you watching!

[@GlennsCarCollection]

Great video. I have been lucky enough to review almost every GT3 and RS variant including the 992 GT3. All are amazing but my all time favorite to drive is the 997.2 GT3. I wish i had bought a 997 GT3 back in the day when they were “cheap”

[@bbb12345]

GT4 is my choice, too. What a little mid-engine beast this is.

[@jeffk464]

I would say GTS, so that its more livable.

[@SuperEasy1337]

The one without hair's face really lights up in these Porsches. Good video, guys! It looks like you had to be dragged away kicking and screaming from that GT4 RS.

[@kineticU]

Really enjoyed watching. You guys make it fun to watch.

[@EverydayDriver]

Glad you enjoyed. Thank you for watching!

[@pedrowhite911]

Well done and well said. “Food, water, shelter, GT4RS!” “This touches me in all the right places.” Perfect review on road and track! Love the back to back comparisons.

[@ghost21501]

Definitely a goal to own a GT3 one day. I prefer the looks a rawness of the 997.

[@razorworks111]

Same. The 997.2 GT3 or GT3RS 3.8 are the only cars that would get me out of a Cayman GT4. The newest gens are too capable and full of tech.

[@thatcopenguy]

I'd really love a 997.1 or 996 GT3, but I gotta say the Cayman GT4 RS is the only exception I'd make for not having a manual.

[@I999-g2s]

997.2 GT3 RS is peak GT3

[@rurimoto]

997 is my second favorite of 911 generations

[@GlennsCarCollection]

Glad to see the Cayman finally getting an RS variant.

[@000GunterGabriel000]

In 3 months it will be here on my driveway. Watching that video made me even more excited. One thing: Perfect car? A manual would still be the top of the cake.

[@EverydayDriver]

We wish for a manual as well. Congrats on your upcoming RS!

[@000GunterGabriel000]

@@EverydayDriver Thx!

[@calebbodill6094]

I would go for the gt4 rs because of the intake sound and the mid engine. Love that the gt4 rs is a little sports car as well, would be perfect for those canyon Roads

[@GodGear]

That looks so much fun!! I had the honor to drive a GT3 RS on the track and man , the word fun was an understatement!! Great video guys !

[@radost0514]

nice cinematic and car sound! really good video editing ! i propose a raise for the gentlemen

[@panamera53]

Thank you for making a video that matters. I remember Motortrend used to be the automotive channel to go too, but y'all and Savagegeese are two of the best automotive KZbin channels.

[@EverydayDriver]

We’re flattered you enjoy our work enough to say this. Thank you for watching!

[@HandsomeAlex25]

I love that in the edit, you put the contrasting/disagreeing thoughts right next to each other! Paul on the 992: This rides really well! Todd: It's too rough for anything other than a track. You did this on several things, and it really drives home the point of different people having a different experience in a car. This is the best thing about Everyday Driver - you never try to present a consensus, you showcase the different opinions!

[@phattyhales]

And it's pretty rare that they agree with each other too! But yeah, at the end of the day reviews are just opinion based on the reviewer's personal taste.

[@EverydayDriver]

We greatly appreciate you connecting with what we do! Thank you for watching.

[@clintonrodriguez9771]

One of the best videos you guys have shared with us, amazing work!!!

[@EverydayDriver]

Thrilled you liked it so much. Thank you for watching!

[@Lukec4ge]

Greetings from London. Great video guys. I lust for a GT4 RS- who wouldn’t?! But a purple 991.1 GT3 RS is the one for me....

[@stevep5093]

I was smiling as much as Todd just watching…thanks for the enjoyment (vicariously). God bless 🙏

[@beakersgarage383]

Great video and commentary as always! Chance, you got some really amazing footage here! Paul, I actually giggled like a school girl at 1:40-1:46 with the engine rev. You're right, never gets old! I'm not even sure how you guys were able to fit all of this into the day considering you were also out on track with us! Very well done!

[@phattyhales]

Thanks! Half of this was shot the day after you guys were taken back to the airport. Ron took us mountain biking around the Ring in between. What an experience that was! And I'm really out of shape...

[@sowhat5688]

Brilliant episode! Thank you very much guys. Loved to see you in my home region - the cayman GT4 RS would be my favourite, no doubt. As long as this is not available at affordable prices i stick to Todd's old love Lotus 🙂 Love to see your car reviews! Thanks

[@billtaylor8655]

Amazing video. Love seeing you over in your Europe. But most of all, I love seeing how genuinely happy you look.

[@samwisee]

I am so glad they make content like this, but also incredibly jealous. Nobody can get the GT4RS it seems. Would love to see a back to back comparison between all the GT3s… from 996 all the way to 992, similar to the 50 year of Porsche video you guys did, and just see the evolution of the GT3s from the 996.1 to the 992.1… that’ll be proper amazing

[@TinMan-kd2gv]

Yes you can get the GT4RS as my dealer offered me one but I want the GT3RS instead. The 3RS is the one that nobody can buy unless you have a long good relationship with Porsche. Right now, I daily drive my Turbo S

[@VerryJerry90]

And we will never see these cars again in the future, im so jealous of you guys - what an experience to have!

Great video, I like the way you both explained the differences to the viewer. Just wished you had a discussion about them at the end.

Great comparison guys! Can’t think of a better way to spend a day than Porsche GT cars on a track.

[@keithjackson4985]

That, was a very good video! They build so few of these. Their a premium brand and the price is very high. Could afford a GT4, but can't attain one because I've never owned a Porsche and I won't pay an above sticker premium. I still hope the owners enjoy them. Fantastic cars. If you guys bring one back to the states, I'm going to steal it!

[@RippinLyons]

Great video!

[@KevBoy3D]

I’ve driven the Megane RS at an RSRSpa trackday, what a great car for a beginner, I’d say the prices go up fast depending on amount of laps and the type of car. And the excesses are also pretty steep if you are less experienced driving the track that’s definitely a factor.

Great comparison. FYI, noticed your suction cup camera mount. If you want to capture the best footage angle I use the RoadSpy RS1 on my Cayman. Way way better than those suction cups.

[@jmmch3358]

I can't wait to see you compare the Corvette C8 Z06 VS Porsche 992 GT3 or the newer GT3 RS. It would be something else👍

I can't click "thumbs up" fast enough...surely not as fast as these cars 😎

[@damachine3]

I may be the only person that owns all three...plus a 992 GT3 Cup car (Plus a Macan S that will be upgraded to the fastest SUV on the Nürburgring, the Cayenne Turbo GT). You can see them all on my channel, and you will see my 992 GT3 RS when it arrives next month.

[@damachine3]

And now a Spyder RS as well. It may be my favorite.

[@cayman9873]

My god.. so inspiring. Porsche is my drug.

[@nickwilliams7490]

Great video review, and what a place to do it at the Nurburgring surrounding area and Spa with RSR. Have driven both tracks with RSR in Z4MC, M4, Cayman S 987.2 and 911 C2S 997.1. Amazing experience Without wishing to sound pedantic, at 8:18 you mention that BMW took greatest hits special parts from the M3 for the 1M, but in fact that was for the Z4M coupe (S54 engine, CSL brakes) and not the 1M, which had an engine from the Z4 3.5is. You mention this parts bin greatest hits exactly in your Z4M coupe 'Forgotten Gems' video. Anyway, great video and GT3RS/GT4RS would be my equal choice for Spa and GT4RS for Nurburgring.

[@phattyhales]

You’re right about the Z4 but the 1M took suspension components and most obviously the mirrors from the E92 M3 but kept a tweaked 235is engine.

[@RacerRich1]

Great video! Would love to experience SPA in either the 992 GT3 or GT4RS, under dry conditions. However, after looking over pricing a big concern is paying a rather substantial price, then having rain on track day, that would be heartbreaking, there’s also the 150k liability for the car. I might just have to settle for COTA in my C2S as that would be practically free by comparison.

[@wtharris2343]

infectious passion...

[@BimmerDreamer325i]

0:33 Is that 40% of all Porsches, or 40% of all 911s/Caymans? I thought the Macan and Cheyenne made up the majority of their sales. Anyway, great work!

[@thatcopenguy]

I think it's from all 911s. And the math would suggest that, Porsche delivered close to 30k 911s between 2017 and 2019 and a combined of a bit over 10k 991.2 GT3 & GT3 RS during the period.

[@phattyhales]

The stat is about the 911 specifically. For 2021 Porsche sold 14k 911s/718s combined out of their 70k total in vehicle sales.

[@svoncampe]

Amazing cars and even better countryside

[@mattguerra82]

how can we normal income mortals ever be happy without being able to own something like that? 🤤 Best 6 cilinders sound ever

[@jaredhuang2225]

Wow Spa. Years ago (2014) at a Porsche World Roadshow event I drove a Boxter Spyder back to back with a 911 C2S, after the first turn you could tell the Boxter/Caymans are better handling than 911s. If I ever buy a Porsche sports car it will be a Boxster/Cayman.

[@z06van21]

Handing isn't 1 dimensional. Yes, the mid-engine platform can carry more speed in the corners, but there is also damping and rear-end stability to consider and this is where the suspension of the 911 is way better than the Cayman platform. Nevermind the front differences, I am talking about the rear. The multilink rear keeps dynamic toe in check much better than a strut does. I have the 2022 GT4 and the rear-end gets easily unsettled when the suspension has to work thru its travel because of the toe change. Have you seen the GT4 RS's Ring video overlayed with the 992 GT3? The GT4 RS moves around A LOT more than the GT3 does.

[@nicooncars4085]

Very nice review - congratulation for the work done on the video ! One question I have always had and struggle to get an answer is whether the carbon airbox that comes with the Weissach pack does change the engine intake noise in the cabine of the Cayman ? Views and experience here ?

[@caxsfSpeedster]

I still think nothing can beat a 997 gt2...usability, track performance..maybe the exhaust sound is not as exciting, but surely much more easy to live with...and with a proper tune, it becomes something else...

[@TDS981]

The weight difference you quoted on the Cayman is down to the new regs manufacturers have to follow now.

[@RockstarBruski]

Wow great video! Your excitement of driving those cars was like being there with you. Great narration, filming and editing as well. Glad you guys had this awesome experience and thankyou RSR for lending them the cars! Cheers!

[@kiddo8597]

how much it is now?

@@kiddo8597 in Germany it's about 250k Euro for a non-Weissach and 270-280k for a Weissach package car, so about $100k above retail.

[@carlfrederick8433]

So grateful for this video and your previous 3 generation Cayman video. Which is the best Cayman for having fun on a canyon or mountain road: GT4RS, 718 GT4, 981 GT4 or Cayman R? I noticed the iron brake rotors on the GT4RS, makes sense since RSR is in the business or racing and replacing PCCB rotors and pads cost $30K. Do you feel the iron rotors on the GT4RS, weighing 37.5 pounds more than PCCB, affected steering feel, acceleration, ride, or braking in any way? Or are the iron rotors just a better value and the GT4RS is already fantastic with the iron rotors?

[@simonyoung908]

Love my Cayman R, 👍
