Is the NEW 2021 Porsche Cayman GT4 PDK a BETTER sports car than a 911?

[@davide4607]

It's so refreshing watching your emotion when driving cars that you like. Literally every other automotive journalist has become jaded and unemotional regardless of what they drive. I hope you keep this enthusiasm.

You do GREAT reviews, in particular, its good to get the great background to the history of a vehicle and why its worthy to consider buying, like here.

[@RaitisRides]

I think that comes from teaching high school history for 18 years!

[@seanpendleton59]

@@RaitisRides absolutely yes the Cayman is way way better than the 911 in terms of styling because I love the Cayman better than the 911 and I also love the Panamera the Cayenne the Macan and the brand new Taycan here is a fun fact everyone should know that Porsches was my first favorite car when I was in preschool man I loved Porsche it was because I used to live by a Porsche dealership in Beachwood Ohio and I love and remember that dealership ever since and I will be working there to drive Porsches or other cars in the service bay and absolutely yes the Cayman GT4 outperforms the 911 in my opinion

Why would they not put the superior pdk in the car? Why would they hobble the can by only offering the inferior manual? Are you two guys stupid?

@8pm sometimes better, faster isn't the best option. The fun experience a big part of the car.

If you want the slower GT4, become a Shift Monkey at No Extra Cost. Manual Monkeys see PDK savings as simply more options.

That Porsche feel is something you can never duplicate. The NA response time with the motor and the handling make it a more visceral experience than driving say a hellcat. Porsche keeps driver and the center of their focus and it shows. You see this thing in the rear view mirror and you might as well move over lol

[@gordydexter2615]

Hey Joe awesome video!!! Love the GT4!!! I have had 17 Porsches, my last two were 911 with PDK tranny. I am ordering a SPYDER and will be getting the PDK so my wife can drive it too. Here in Washington DC the traffic is constantly hideous so she stresses when driving a manual so I cave on the manual for the PDK so I don’t receive marital conflict as I get multiple cars. My daily is a 911 Turbo S. Was waiting for the ZO6 but the SPYDER has won out over the C8. I like the green color but my Porsches are either red or yellow or silver. Keep on doing amazing reviews!!!!

[@JayPimen]

I wish they updated the manual for shorter gears ...the gears are way too long you can go to 80mph in 2nd gear that's no fun ,I want to go though multiple gears before getting arrested 😂
