I agree! Manufacturers are making cars safer and safer with all kinds of technology and then they go and hide the heater controls, window de-fog etc in the depths of the infotainment system or silly touch screen controls which is only marginally better than in the infotainment system! Even the latest computers still have a raised bump on the 'J' key so that you can feel it for correct finger placement.

So my point is to maximise the performance the driver has to ensure that he has the front end stable and maintain power thru the corner (and no lift off) or you will loose it! Period.

Nothing new. We test drove a first Gen Cayman 20 odd years ago at London’s biggest dealer and even back then, way before g/km or any other external factor was a thing, the dealer said Porsche would always limit production numbers of its top models to increase rarity and keep up prices. Even back then a nicely specced, but fairly standard, Cayman had almost no depreciation when driven off the forecourt, whilst most cars at the time would drop 20-30% as soon they left the dealer.

Harry! Both you and I have now driven the 992 GT3 CS and T together with the Cayman GT4 RS. You have still not driven the GT3K which, as you know, I still consider to be the pick of all GT cars this year. Whilst the GT4RS was intended as a weekend car to blast up the road it is an impossible "daily" due to the induction and engine noise. The GT3K does work as a "daily" adequately with front lift, the capacious cabin allows the luggage void behind the front seats to be accessed and the seats recline to sleep on long road trips too. As you know well, the 992 GT3 suspension is adjustable and if you find the steering too alive then you can adjust the camber to reduce this. All GT products used on the road are much safer and quicker on Pilot Sport 4S and I strongly recommended these.

Okay, "Dutch Reach" is where you open the door, operate the door handle, with the hand furthest from the door. In Harry's case in this video that would be his left hand. Doing that makes the strap's rear pull action much easier to use. The Reach makes the driver twist around, helping to see cyclists, pedestrians, etc. and reducing the chance of the door opening into them. It's been taught for maybe 45yrs in the Netherlands and other places, just not here in the UK.

Couldn’t agree more. I’ve driven both and chose the GT4RS over the GT3 which is just plain dull in comparison to this utter hooligan. The ride is much nicer in the GT4RS and you can actually use it’s sport suspension on real life B-roads around where I live. The noise in the cabin is actually quite tolerable when just cruising in normal settings. The tyre noise is definitely there as in all 2-door Porsches, but after 15 minutes into my 1350km drive home from taking delivery, I chucked the BOSE noise cancelling headset into the passenger footwell and there it remained for the rest of the 2 day long journey. It’s much more old school than the 992 and a completed joy to take out for that spirited drive. You just got to love having no buttons on the steering wheel and not having to change any driving modes except for the gear shifts, suspension and exhaust which are all analog and mechanical adjusting the car’s behavior. Simply put. The GT4RS is the most fun sports car in production bar none. Yea there are faster cars out there, but speed isn’t what’s important. No other car can compete with the insanity and complete hooliganism of the raucous GT4RS. But you need 3-4 other cars in the garage alongside it. On launch control with cold SC2’s it’s borderline scary at best, and that’s what I want and need from a sports car. About missing the manual gear box, get another car for that Harry, we could all see your hands were full as it were. Musical instrument? It sure is❤

@@Nord_Mann You confirmed all of my suspicions regarding its superiority to the 992+GT3 but what a brilliantly well put synopsis. It's funny that we reward the lack of adjustment and buttons but I can totally get what you mean, feels like the engineers have done all the work already, encouraging to hear it feels old school. Too does its complimentary place in one's garage, sounds like a totally unique/special experience which it should (and seems to) actually be delivering in spades as a proper RS and well, as a sports car. Downright heroic to be actually using as intended, as well! Enjoy your GT4 RS! Hope to give one a fair shake myself, one day 😁

@@Nord_Mann You must be the internets no 1 GT4RS fan judging by all your posts. You must be close to have completed your run in, which is supposed to be 3,000 kms, or 1500 minimum, which I dont understand. I am only 800 into my run in and have been keeping it under 4,000 rpm. Perhaps I can go to 5,000 rpm now! Its an epic car.
