Awesome video as always!! M2CS next??

🤔🤔 modifying the civic and the mustang🤔🤔

[@derpydestinies]

Please don't put music in the intro. The exhaust and engine noise are sufficient enough.

Day one of saying Hello until Both of y’all say hello back

[@frogogogo]

Perhaps it’s the facelift, but this GT4 looks so much more aggressive than its predecessor, and it just works.

[@NoName-qp1op]

Frederick Jackson but it somehow looks less like a gt car.

[@NoName-qp1op]

oFriskyPanda i dont like the back. The exhaust tips dont fit IMO

[@frogogogo]

No Name the exhaust seems like an afterthought, that’s for sure. And I think with the front fascia they were trying to mimic the styling of the later model GT3, but there are some elements that could use a redesign

[@NoName-qp1op]

Frederick Jackson thats true. I also think that a gt car should not look aggressive. It should look happy and playful. Like a toycar. This is also the reason i dont like boring colors on them. ;) they need brigh, loud, fancy ones. Green, blue, red, yellow..

[@frogogogo]

No Name that’s fair too. I find the subtlety in design for GT cars - smooth lines, curves, etc. - brings out the elegance of the car, and since GTs are typically practical, it’s probably best if the overall looks are subdued

[@isaacsteiner]

Jakub - "I'm Yuri!". Yuri - "I'm Jakub!" "And we're going for a drive!" Anyone else catch that? Haha sneaky.

[@oldsoulboy6483]

@D H Which is way too fast and ruins the feel of a manual box. A great car, ruined by too high gearing which is typical Porsche to stop it from being better than a 911

[@jackMJ26]

@D H 86 is official. I've seen it do 80 uphill in second gear, sooooo

[@samirsamhouri6958]

[@arm-power]

This Cayman is too expensive in compare to Challenger Hellcat Widebody. And not looking as good as Challenger. So? Maybe for Porsche fans. For track driving is better to buy used formula monopost.

[@cedb7115]

400hp + manual gearbox is all you really need to have a safe , fun driving experience. Anything above that horsepower figure is like asking for trouble.

[@jp_0118]

Honestly this is more of a 911 than the new 911; best car Porsche makes rn. Love this thing!

They're never going to leave a bad shift in the video ever again, man y'all are furious 🤣

Well I'd say it's a mini gt3 rs and I love the fact that it only comes with a manual transmission.

These guys should present Top Gear on the BBC with Chris Harris , fun , refreshing and knowledgeable.

[@soniasingh2182]

They are annoying!

[@BL1THE]

i dont think most people's complaints are that they're annoying. i think most of the time what i see is that people criticize them for not going into very much technical detail and saying the same things over and over again. i can see where they're coming from, however i think that thestraightpipes still make very entertaining videos that offer a unique style. also, all reviewers have a formula and "repeat themselves" in some way or another.

[@bongbong024]

@@BL1THE agree. they review luxury cars as they review the sports cars.

[@tasbirrahman5354]

The review i was waiting for thanks guys for this awesome video about cayman gt4

My favourite Porsche GT car by far. Perfect in every way as a Porsche should be. Find myself watching more StraightPipes on KZbin. Your reviews are awesome!

I cannot even begin to describe how much I want one of these. But in that gorgeous blue instead of silver (although I wouldn't complain about either).

Yuri's face as Jakub goes thru clichè corner 8:14 is priceless 😂 Don't be scared Yuri, don't be scared 😉

[@Hepacivirus]

I've been waiting for you guys to make a review about this for so long

[@chrishasty1444]

I got a laugh out of Jacob's reaction to Yuri short-shifting the 1>2 like he learned to drive from the E.P.A.

[@tejas9304]

Wow guys video quality has improved a lot. Much love from India.

[@adamhization]

"Like fighting a computer that's an actual car" --😂

[@pbbdmedia]

Having just garaged my GT4, I’m curious- why does *not a single reviewer* dig the fact that city driving in 2 gears is handy. Ripping roads & tracks are great in this ratio. Running second on tight canyons is perfect. Running third on sweepers is perfect. It’s like driving a velvet knife. Anywhere.

[@TheStraightPipes]

I think cause shifting is the fun part of having a manual

[@pbbdmedia]

@@TheStraightPipes True- having had an STi, I liked the switch from 2/3, and how common it was, but this thing is a different beast. I like being able to wind the gear out, and let the linear progression roll out...

[@seinsmeld13]

I sold my 2016 GT4 to obtain a 2020 Cayman Spyder as I missed our former 2009 Boxster S. I love the power however dislike the manual convertible top. So far the car has been great with 600 km on the dial. Keep up the great work men.

[@jacklee1075]

Always loved these, especially in the yellow

[@jordandegraw4497]

Thank you for redoing that shift from first to second. :)

Nice! The Cayman is really getting better. Not only the looks, but also the numbers (horsepower and torque)

[@IAmAPhan]

Badass intro! I've heard that song many times now and you guys made a good edit to it. The cuts did go a bit behind the beat, but whatever, great job anyway.

[@retardretard407]

You should do podcasts more often. I really enjoyed that one with Matt Farrah.

Another one coming up on Carpreneur!

[@F40er]

I recently went to road Atlanta and watched the Gt3 RS and listening to the cayman up shifting really reminds me of the gt3’s

[@abel5925]

The 911 is an icon, but breaks my neck every time I see it on the road. I saw one yesterday in this color & it’s like damn it looks so good. The modern Porsche design style is something else

[@GLAXxan]

that B-roll grading was super nice Yuri!

Nice to see Jacob upgraded from a Tag(iirc) to a Rollie. Congratz!

[@TheObiwantoby]

The Cayman platform is magic. I had a chance to drive one in the Rockies and it felt like a magnet was keeping me on the road. 911 has a different feel to it , more wild. I wonder if the older 911s would feel better without the Turbos tbh.

[@julianagollari4851]

Absolutely Awesome Experience!! I drove one and couldn’t get it of my head after. Easily the best for enthusiasts that like manual trans.

[@b1indsided]

“That’s the top of 2nd” 😂😂

[@biggiebruce2428]

The cupholder on the dash is amazing! Doesn't get in the way of the stick and easy access

[@Themazcorner]

I believe the absolute sweet spot would be the Cayman/Boxster GTS 4.0 specially if the majority of the driving will be on the street. On the track I would think a really experienced driver would benefit from the additions the GT4 brings. Thanks for the video guys! For the price the C8 is a really tough contender to beat specially in the US. In Europe not so much as it will be quite expensive here

[@photophilchamp]

Great review as usual👍. What is the car filming through Cliché corner? Seems quite quick...

[@harrismi7]

Thank you, Porsche, for 3 pedals and analog gauges! Unless I win a serious jackpot, I won't be able show my support through a purchase. If I somehow win a million doll hairs, I promise to buy it.

Hey there... I would think it would be awesome if you could make a review on that 992 Carrera s manual...Not many 992 manual videos out there, that would be great! Love the video, awesome car! Not sure what is better. I like GT4 engine, but I like the looks and interior better in the 992.

[@j.taylormassey9054]

The seats can be reclined by buying an aftermarket bracket kit. Very annoying to have to do, but on my GT3 it made a huge difference in seat comfort and room for a helmet.

[@franzthompson6661]

That’s totally a track car I don’t think if I had the money for that I would get one to use as a daily driver but great review as always guys!!!

Cayman is amazing... because it's smaller and doesn't have a very high output compared to the 911, this is much more fun on the road or track for yer average drive... it's kinda like the MX5/Miata, because you'll drive it on the limit easier it brings more fun compared to a car that could go well beyond what your personal limit is as a driver.

The engine displacement, power, and torque numbers reminded me of the E9X M3. Only difference being the S65 is a V8 w two more cylinder than the GT4. But Im sure the GT4 is much lighter and most likely quicker in a straight line launch.
