2023 Porsche 718 Cayman GT4 RS - POV Driving Impressions

[@chriscleveland9203]

That's the most manual looking auto shifter I have seen.

[@YasukeNakamoto]

right i was like wait the rs is in manual?? Gonna be honest, I think this car would be so much more fun with a manual, but I guess "performance" and all. . .

[@LateNightDateNight]

@@YasukeNakamoto Caymans are known for long ass gears, I know a manual always seems to be better but one go at a Porsche PDK and you’ll understand why this car gets so much more out of the auto.

[@YasukeNakamoto]

@@LateNightDateNight yea I’m very interested to see how it feels to drive. . . It’s just two pedals feels so wrong, all my cars have been manual 😅

[@zakarywin7645]

@@YasukeNakamoto I think the philosophy of the cars make sense. If you want to drive a manual, you’re probably not seeking the fastest lap times, you’re seeking driving enjoyment. In that case the non-RS model is a better buy.

[@SpiritedDriven86]

​@@zakarywin7645 I think the Manual is best suited for the Cayman GTS's imo. I'm a manual driver myself too, my current car is a Toyota 86, and damn are they best with a Manual. For the GT4 RS, I'd still take the Manual over the PDK. As good as those autos are, I'll take driver engagement over purely performance

[@disophisis]

I don't have GT4 RS money, but I do have decent headphone money. Probably the only time I'll ever experience the sound of this thing, so I'm glad the audio is excellent.

[@CammyDizzle]

This is great i was expecting the normal talk through videos but instead its just raw pov driving love it.

[@MrMachomeat]

You must be new here

[@Larkc-ty5sz]

that last 700 rpm is everything.

[@SerPurple51]

That shrieking sound when it gets towards redline just makes your adrenaline rush! What a sound!

[@AdamKlingenberger]

That sounds amazing. Maybe best sounding car in the world, at least from cabin POV. So raw in the last 500 RPM. Don’t need more performance when it sounds this good.

[@gettcouped]

Hard to say that the Z06 exists

[@jjchockey]

best sounding 6 cyl yes. Best sounding car no.

[@syahirulfadhli4255]

I love that he doesn't talk a lot during the video so we can hear that gorgeous engine sound

[@SuchFinessse]

Damn dude, just hearing you rev it at the beginning alone is wild. What an engine.

[@Hecate24]

when you started driving, i immediately got up and grab my bluetooth earphones to hear this beauty in a much more personal way ❤

[@abdullaharif6455]

4:37 Oh God that sound!

[@v1ncy982]

I'm in love with this car, the sound of air box is insane!!!

[@fatih9801]

ı love this channel because his straight forward and mentions about rear seats he sits and test back seats even sport cars, no fancy intros or outros calm and whole video flows smoothly. he is not so excited to yell or talk loud so i can watch his videos when im chilling at home. Great job topher and also i love your watches you wear, you have taste about watches i think :)

[@Bigwilliestyle322]

Glad you got to drive this! Been enjoying your content as of late. Good luck and hope to see more. 🍺

[@ScottKelley]

Oh my God... the sounds that car makes. I am in love!

[@Didi2th]

This was honestly such a high quality POV. From the camera quality, angle and mic. Just perfect, keep this current setup forever. You've gained a new subscriber👊

[@Sigma13Angel]

That engine note is absolutely amazing. I had a smile across my face the entire drive. What a beauty to hear.

[@emilienmary7963]

Same thing for me 🤩

[@abdullaharif6455]

This thing is eargasm!

[@TheTopher]

Yeah I had to cut out some inappropriate sounding “ughhh’s” from this one

[@UKWNj]

This is a thing of beauty, very pleasing to the eyes, ears, and soul. Thank you for all your work Topher. Love your videos!💪🏽

[@WiIdJam]

What a machine! I'm honestly more sold on this 718 GT4 RS than the 992 GT3 RS.

[@TLentz]

Quite the downgrade going from the Little Tikes to this, but still great video as always.

[@TheTopher]

Tell me about it!

[@gryphon123456]

That was soul-filling! if that came in Emmanuel I would sell everything I own and just move into this machine and call it a day.

[@jackwicker]

The induction noise absolutely makes this car. Good lord. What a lovely sound. The way the throttle blips so rapidly on downshifts is incredible. It's a truly special car.

[@theanthonyv]

I bought one of the first ones of these cars to hit California. Used it as my daily driver for six months. Perfection. Greatest car ever.

[@PhyFK8]

The absolute dream car. Sound is simply a symphony. Great review as always man

[@pascutia]

It’s so cool how even through the binaural audio the engine sounds closer to you in this than in the 911 GT3. Those shifts couldn’t be quicker. Such an amazing car.

[@greyfox3931]

Weiiiisaacchhhhkkk package

[@user-rm8et7mg5v]

this car sounds INSANE. what a beauty

[@Techinvestor567]

THE perfect sports car. Mid-engine, enough power, high revs, relatively light,

[@ZoomZoom356]

Very light, 3,200lbs is very light for a modern sports car with all the modern safety regulations and stuff, its not a lightweight like a Miata or a BRZ, but those cars also arent lugging around a 4.0L engine. Even the new flagship Lotus, the Emira weighs over 3,100lbs.

[@sebastianromero420]

Needs a manual transmission

[@lachlanjeffery88]

@@sebastianromero420RS cars dont get them since they’re for the maximum performance (yet they limit the 4rs with the skinny front tires???), that’s why there is the manual option for the non rs gt4 and gt3

[@ZoomZoom356]

@@sebastianromero420 Why would you want a manual when you have a 7 speed PDK? Literally the greatest and fastest gearbox ever put in a road car. The GT4 RS is also the highest performance version of the Cayman, it wouldn't really make sense to put a manual in an RS car, cause the PDK offers far more performance than any manual

[@ZoomZoom356]

@@lachlanjeffery88 I just wouldn't by a manual Porsche, cause their PDKs are just so good. If I were to buy something like a Mustang I would definitely get a manual cause the other option would be that awful 10 speed torque converter.

[@TapTwoCounterspell]

That shifter got me in the first half ngl.

[@Galottiful]

I love how the steering wheel looks without the buttons. It’s just a wheel. Brings me back to simpler times

[@michaelsaywhat6980]

The closest satisfaction of me driving a Porsche GT4 RS will be this video playing through my 2001 miata bose speakers on some curvy roads. 😅

[@DrCrei]

12:47 My man was taking a leak 😂

[@Greygoose3130]

I just think this is the best car in the world. I Can’t find it, or afford it if I could find it, or fit in it if I could afford it. But I think it’s the best.

[@Omid786.]

From the chimes to engine sound to manual 🔥😮‍💨

[@skoluh]

This might be one of the greatest video in the channel thus far

[@OSuKaRuTV1]

Pity KZbin had no way to stream back all those glorious G-forces. So fun :D

[@starlitsorrow]

So beautiful in every imaginable way

[@chrisserthedisser]

I can HEAR the joy in your voice- this porsche is emitting joy from you. Now let me ask you a question: why do i have to live vicariously through you to feel this, eh???

[@l5ismi]

It makes you want to drive it, it must be pure joy what an amazing car!!

[@Love-kc6pi]

keep it up i love your content brother 💪🔥

[@chettylewis]

been waiting to see your pov on this for a while especially after seeing sub topher and charlies pov on this car that sound is glorious

[@GinjaNinja77]

You need that yellow and black Cali license plate on that rig!

[@AndyRoss-z3t]

I can't think of a car I would want to drive more than this. A literal example of driving pleasure. And the reason that there is nothing, and I do mean nothing, like a Porsche.

[@ricardohernandez5723]

am i the only one that doesnt like how it looks? live everything about it except that back part for some readon

[@gDiniM]

Probably the same reasoning for why i hate the look of the GT3 RS. It looks to extra to me with all the black accents and decals on these cars. Its not without purpose though 🤷‍♂️

[@augustortiz]

Oh lawd, just look at it. It’s perfect!

[@patrick03333]

That 9k max rev is crazy

[@Rogershijianhui]

Wow that’s a good engine sound!

[@mg-by7uu]

It's amazing how good that engine sounds although to me it sounds really muffled. Only because I have the same engine but my exhaust has no side mufflers and smaller cats. I can't imagine what this car would sound like with full exhaust...

[@TerenceY]

That sounds mighty glorious!

[@Dawntana]

Never been a fan of the cayman over the 911. But this ones beautiful

For me, the only thing that can compete with this in terms of sound, engine responsiveness and willingness to rev up and high is the Ferrari 458 italia or it’s track focused variant.

[@shadvvarrior]

Does the engine bay heat transfer inside the cabin during longer drives in the summer making it uncomfortable?

sounds insane
