I spend the weekend with the Porsche 718 Cayman GT4 RS and try to find out if it's worth all the hype.
From Porsche:
The Porsche 718 Cayman GT4 RS is the new flagship model in the 718 family - an uncompromising driver’s car designed to impress with its lightweight construction, extremely agile chassis set-up, sophisticated aerodynamics and unique soundtrack.
Among the striking features of the new, top-of-the-range 718 are the process air intakes behind the driver and passenger windows. The 718 Cayman normally has small side windows here. The new air intakes improve both the intake airflow and, at the same time, create a thrilling intake noise right next to the occupants' ears. The characteristic air intakes in front of the rear wheels have been retained and are used for engine cooling.
Like every modern RS model, the new 718 GT4 RS is exclusively available with the Porsche dual clutch transmission (PDK). This gearbox shifts through its seven gears at lightning speed and guarantees maximum performance. The gearshift paddles allow drivers to keep their hands on the steering wheel even when changing gear manually. Alternatively, they can use the re-designed selector lever on the centre console.
The unique Porsche Design Chronograph 718 Cayman GT4 RS, created by Porsche Design exclusively for buyers of the vehicle, is as dynamic as its four-wheeled counterpart. The watch also benefits from a lightweight design concept with high-performance features based on the robust, high-tech characteristics of titanium. Its winding rotor is modelled on the sports car’s rims and can be specified in different colours, just like the car.

I love the subtleness of the GT3 Touring. I never fashioned myself a RS person either. That is until I started driving them. Now I find each of us has a bit of a different threshold for where that Jekyll and Hyde line sits. Although I love the aesthetics of the 911, the small intimate nature and near perfect ergonomic layout of the 718 interior just pulls and reminds you more of the older 911’s than the more bloated, current versions. I’m finding now that one should have a non-RS Porsche, as well as a RS one in the garage at all times. Heck, there are 7 days in a week-perhaps a different one for each day, right?🤦🏻‍♂️

Before watching the video I’m wondering about your angle? Why on earth would you try to daily a GT4RS for a week? I picked up mine Friday and have done the 1500km break in period on Scandinavian B-roads during the last 3 days. Today 9000rpm was unleashed and my hearing still suffers😂 The GT4RS is an absolute run riot heavy metal band on a leash at all times. The car was invented in 1886 with the Lohner-Porsche, and it ends with the GT4RS as the pinnacle of driving fun. Of course the coming 992GT3RS is faster and a lot more of a technological tour de force as it should be, but that just makes m case, and yours to loose. The Cayman GT4RS will out-fun any car on the planet any time. It’s surprisingly analog and hilariously old school. BUT, during the 1700kms I’ve been doing since Friday in the GT4RS, so be learnt that the ride comfort is just excellent, and the seats are amazingly comfortable. I can even use the sport setting on the suspension for long durations if so desired. The 3 drawbacks with the car is except price and availability: 1) rear view limited. I could be having a cop trailing me and I wouldn’t know until the siren came on. 2) side view visibility, you need the co-pilot to give thumbs up in tight intersections. 3) tyre noise on bad road surfaces, but this is the same for the 911 also. Motoring ends with the GT4RS. No need to look further, and compared to the coming GT3RS and Ferraris is actually a bargain! Happy days❤

I agree with you, but hands down, I'd take this over a GT3 (PDK) everyday. The only reason I'd choose the 911 is to have the manual. I'm over the whole "it's not a 911" thing. Mid-engined is just better, fact. I personally like the looks of the Cayman better, too.

nice in-depth test. Unbelievable, 10 minutes before you went into the sound and the speed range, I had exactly the same thoughts. Incredible, like telepathy. I also feel that the range of the sound is relatively small, and then just before the end of the speed, for a speed window of maybe 500 revolutions, there is a peak in the sound that is really emotional. In my opinion it is also clearly too late, which means that you have to keep accelerating. With the Ferrari 360, for example, it opens from 3-4000 revolutions, which makes more sense for my emotions.

Nice attempt at a contrary point of view. But it’s an RS - I think we knew before your video that if you attempt to measure against criteria for which it was not designed, it might feel compromised. But measure it on great driving roads and on track and it’s epic. So the conclusion for me was obvious before you started. It was never intended as a daily driver nor is that why someone would buy it. Frankly I wouldn’t have a base GT4 as a daily driver either. AP says the 4RS was built as a fun car for road and track and they appear to have nailed that brief. My order is in and I’ll be keeping my X5 for daily driving duties.

First time watching the channel, great video Sam! Nice to see it being driven on the streets and not the track. Since this car came out, I always felt something about the looks of it wasn’t popping..and you nailed it. I’m always asking myself, this or GT3 in manual. 718 has the amazing sound inside, and from what I gather might be better suited for someone that’s not so tall (5’6). Other hand, 992 is well…that and has the manual option. I’ve driven neither, and don’t even know why I bother thinking about this as I’ll never have finds for it lol. Guess I just like to dream. Wish Porsche would lend me a car to drive for the weekend..heck even for a day..

Great work as always! The way I see it (and I've never been behind the wheel of porsche, just watching videos) RS product seems to be the one to drive to track and do full track days . Non RS seems to be one which is more on daily side of things with occasional track drive. Same goes for GT3 line same goes for GT4 line , that's why I wouldn't judge rs products for being stiff on road , they are not meant to be soft.
@olivergriffiths4445

Superb videography, car looks awesome. I think cars that are “too good” somehow dial the fun out. Something that occasionally wants to try to kill you is probably not a bad thing from a fun factor perspective. The boring cars are best for day to day in most cases, but it’s the magic brief moments you can avail of that potentially make cars like a GT4 RS worth owning and dailying. Unless of course daily driving means mega commutes. However it has to be called out…“beautiful roads”….and a massive crater of a pot hole next to where the car in parked! 😂 (and more than one of your parked locations!)

Having been a member of Porsche GB this last 8 months I've realised there are a lot of Porsche owners who are lucky enough to have multiple cars and will have a GT car for regular track days. Me myself, can only afford to enjoy mine on the country roads. So I get your point, but the RS cars really are used mostly on the track, where all those "extra bits" make a massive difference.

I agreed with you mate. After all, you want to be able to drive the car as much as you can and enjoy the whole thing -- daily driving. I drive a 911 CS for daily and it's capable of going through most of the road at ease. But doing the same thing with a 911 GT3 RS wouldn't be as much fun because the suspension would be too harsh and too hard first of all. 2ndly you would be constantly worrying about damaging the car, which is going to take away all the fun.

I love the “watch the drink” ride quality metric. 😂 Genius. The “below the 911” bit was a fail. The 4RS is a great car in its own right, and to be discouraged by (a rapidly vanishing) “911 is a better car” elitism is to be a member of it. I have a 718 spyder, and I bow to no other Porsche (except maybe a 918 lol). I do admit it looks a bit…gimmicky, but to your point. That’s probably just because we’re not used to seeing a cayman in full aero. The 3RS is not any less gimmicky, but we’re just used to seeing them in race settings more, so are used to it, I guess. I’m actually quite bummed the spyder rs looks like it will be stuck with all the same front end aero as the 4RS, which will look even more out of place on that car (not like I could get near one, though). Keep the shiny side up

Great video. I have had a yellow GT4 for 7 years and it still turns heads. Have ordered the GT4RS, but in arctic grey so the black bits aren't so shouty and contrasting as you correctly pointed out. Not sure you are right about 80% of orders being for the expensive bits of Weissach which dont improve the performance and if anything are overkill on the looks department. I certainly didnt order Weissach and can delight in the fact I will have GT3 performance for much less money.

Sam you’re the best mate, curious to why you don’t have more subs!!! Maybe you could try doing some more videos with other KZbins to gain access to new viewers and vice versa.

Agree. For UK, mainly road use, I'd take the GT4. For a track junkie, or on European billiard table tarmac, RS may be better.

I’ve owned a 981 GT4 here in the US since new in late 2015, and have been waiting for years for this to come out with a deposit at my dealer. Finally it was released - yah! But the bad news - $100K markup!! That’s for a 25 year customer of Porsche who has bought 9 cars. Now about a year later, my time on the list was coming up, and my dealer said as a “favor” they could knock it down to $60K. In the mean time Porsche has quietly had two price increases on these cars, which now adds another $10K to the price. So, with medium options, the car is $250K with markup. As much as I wanted it, that price is a hard nope. So, still wanting to obtain a Porsche with that glorious 4.0L Motorsport motor, I ended up buying a beautiful 1 owner CPO 2018 GT Silver 991.2 GT3 with PCCB’s, carbon buckets, etc with 2300 miles for $195K. I absolutely love this car, and to be honest I think it all worked out for the best. For me, the extra interior room, complete gauges, more aggressive stying and presence, installed Sharkwerks rear muffler bypass for an epic sound, and proven resale make it a winner.

Really appreciate this insight you give … currently own a 718 GT4 and I am a RS person. The RS is just what it’s suppose to be … bonkers … I want one (won’t drive it with a drink in the cup holder though 🙈)

For me I think the GT4.0 with a manual gearbox is the sweet spot. A 4L six in the mid-engine Caman or better yet the Boxster. Better driving car than the 911. A lot less money. Only issue is the tall gears. That can be changed.

Imagine my surprise Sam when I was driving casually past the Porsche dealer in Limoges and saw they have a used 911GT3 new model in shark blue. 4000kms and 250,000 euros. Wow it looked stunning.

Had my Carrera 4S keyed all down the passenger side in the Waitrose car park. Lesson for the day: park your Porsche as far away from anyone else. Unfortunately I did follow my own advice but was still surrounded by the time I returned.
