On the surface, it might seem like a curious decision on Porsche’s behalf to fit the new 718 Cayman GTS with the exact same 4.0-litre flat-six engine and manual gearbox as the wonderful GT4, then charge £11,260 less for the privilege - because at a stroke the GTS would appear to make the GT4 seem at the very least expensive, at worst virtually redundant.

@designaddictuk 4 года назад

In real terms the GTS is actually £36k less than a GT4 as if you didn’t get an allocation from Porsche you need to buy a flipped one on the new used market currently circa £100k 😳 Cayman GTS and golf GTI for me. The GT4 does look better though but...

@yetidh9 4 года назад

When you add a few options to a GTS it ends up more expensive than a base GT4, which you don't really need to add much to. The one Steve drove in this review had £10k of brakes and seats in it. It would be interesting to know the actual price of the car he tested.

@crimsonpirate1710 4 года назад

Not sure why you spent the whole video comparing it to the gt4. Its a stand alone car, compare it to a M4 comp or similar from other manufactures.

@mykiman5955 2 года назад

People/journo's are so down on the 2ltr Cayman. Im telling you, the 2ltr Cayman is a far superior daily driver than this. I have a 2ltr and test drove this car and there is no way I could live with it in a daily basis, its too stiff and to be fair its built for the track so no matter how many "laps" they do telling people how great it is, they dont live with it year round on the commute. The 2ltr is great!!!!!
