@paulpak1 5 лет назад

Wow! Well done, Thomas. That was a brave verdict. Objectively speaking, I'd go with the 718 as well. I'd also recommend getting a 981 series car used. 90% of the technology but with the normally aspirated flat-6. Both are great generations of the same concept. The 911 is of course the most iconic, but at an incredibly high premium nowadays. Unfortunately, Porsche has decided to take the 911 into the Aston Martin direction in terms of prestige over accessibility to the "average" buyer. I think you summed it up best when you said that you'd take 2 of the boxsters instead of the one 911 based on price. Of course, as a Cayman 981 owner, my comments are a little biased. ; ) Keep up the great work!

@clu4u 3 года назад

I’m down with you, 981 Spyder here. Not only is it a head turner, but guys actually compliment the car when I’m getting in or out when parking. I loved my 987 S as well, 144,000 miles of smiles on that one.

@WanderingFriar 2 года назад

@@clu4u Wow! 981 Spyder! I missed out on a Speed Yellow 981 Spyder but have a 981 GTS. I'm sorry to say the 718 is not a patch on the 981. I had one as a courtesy car from my OPC and couldn't wait to bring it back. It sounded asthmatic and even worse the faster you go. I would have hated myself if I got one. The 981 GTS.... Awesome! Even the 911, the best ones are upto the 991 Gen 1, not after. Drove a 2022 911 on Saturday and was very underwhelmed, my pal who owned it could not believe the sound and the way my GTS drove. I had to pry my keys of the guy! 🙂

@nigel.w 2 года назад

I agree that it was brave of Thomas. I also agree with the verdict, objectively speaking, even though I dislike the 2L 718 (I could live with the 2.5 if I had to). Best bang for the buck is certainly the 981 S. IMO, the premium for the 981 GTS is too much, but great car. However, for me, I think the 911 991.1 S/4S is the best bang for the buck 911, and is my personal preference. Still modern, yet classic, still relevant. 981 still modern and relevant, too, IMO. I do like the 992, but I agree that its price premium is hard to justify versus the 718, especially vs the 4L variants. Nonetheless, when compared with cars for the same money, the 992 range still represents good value for money.

@58icarus 5 лет назад

"Or, maybe you want to annoy your neighbors", "every lane change is pure fun", "wake me up, what's going on". Thomas is the best. I just love watching his reviews.

@nateisright 4 года назад

I’ve driven 911, Boxster, and Cayman. The handling limits of the mid-engine layout are so high that it feels like a momentum car. You just don’t seem to need much power to turn low lap times. That said, the 911 feels like a car that has been getting better for 6 decades. It sounds, drives and feels like a flagship car. Brutally quick, but feels so competent and solid, like acceleration is just a minor talent. You can cover distances with almost no effort or fatigue. The controls are so precise in each car. If you want to effortlessly tour,get the 911. If you want to feel the speed, get the 718.

@williamtrevor9210 9 месяцев назад

The GTS gains the more instant low end punch, better for realistic daily driving country roads or towns; loses the better sound of the 4.0. I think Porsche designed the 2.5 litre not primarily for economy/emissions reasons, but for the utility of not having to get to higher revs for everyday driving conditions. Better driveability 99% of the time. And they both have near equal 4.0/4.5 - zero to 60 times auto/manual. As with the 911 vs Boxster, it's the status of the 4.0 vs. better driveability of the 2.5.

Hello Thomas! This was a great video. At the end of the day you can get two 718 cars for less than one 911. It's an easy decision. I drive my 718 Cayman every day and often for 3 or more hours in one trip - I find it very comfortable, so I don't (personally) agree about the seats. The main thing is that it is HUGE fun to drive. And 35 mpg! And with the boot space in the front and the rear, I can do a weekly shop for the whole family too. I think it is a truly great car. I know it is a 4 pot but I am OK with that. It sounds good to me. And I can annoy the neighbours :-)

Long time 911 owner. The new 911 has been made to be like a MB SL. From my test drive of the new 992 it is a ghost of what it once was. My issue with the new 992 is it’s just too big. The new 911’s look fat and obese instead of muscular. It’s huge compared to the air-cooled 911’s and lots bigger than the water cooled 996/997 yet there is no more usable space? The Cayman is really the best drivers car but Porsche will never let the Boxster/Cayman advance beyond the 911 and that is why Porsche has become their worst enemy. Build materials in the new 992 is cheap and Porsche’s option list and prices are ridiculous even by Porsche standards. The center console design is a train wreck and the square robot penis gear shifter is not helping. You can forgive these shortcomings in the SUV and Panamera models but now they have infected the 911 line. Ugh.. The 911 is now way overpriced for what it is and how it is built. I am replacing my 911 with a “M Car”. The review as always is the best online. You are professional and look at a car the way a experienced owner would. Great job.

@vanceshaw3675 5 лет назад

Great commentary Mystro TY! As a long time 993 owner I totally agree on the oversized recent 911s.

@supersonicboy75 4 года назад

Thank Mystro, great comments. When you say M Car do you mean the BMW M-cars? Is a BMW M anywhere close to a Porsche. To me, seems to be sporty saloon only?

@paull3179 4 года назад

The back of the 911's and Cayennes are quite fat and ugly. The rear looks like it was designed with help from Lincoln. I am currently getting used to a 991S cabriolet which feels quite large but very enjoyable with the sport exhaust and powerful enough to spin the rear wheels even after it is moving at 30mph.. I just switched from a 9974s. Yes these are the best reviews on youtube. For daily use i have an overpowered tuned S4 which is my favourite car.

@tomagotchi1956 5 лет назад

Excellent review! Not often we see the 911 and 718 head to head. There is a (false) perception I think sometimes that 911 buyers don't cross-shop with the 718. On a side note, I find it incredible that it takes that long for the infotainment screen to warm up. Any Ford or Honda would be instant on. And "weak battery" from just using the PCM? Are you kidding? Hopefully Porsche will iron these bugs out soon. No way is that acceptable in a 150K car.

Thanks Thomas for your great review. I drove my 718 Cayman from Munich to Switzerland, and I had a great driving experience in Germany without having to worry about speed limits and radars. Just to note that the fuel consumption rocketed and the brakes pad smells a little bit when braking at 190 km/h. Thanks for the review Greets from Spain.

Great review, I'm about to replace my BMW M4 Competition with a 718 Cayman GTS in Carmine Red (PDK). Hope I don't live to regret it, I'm sure I won't as it will be my first Porsche ever having had several ///M Cars. Looking forward to driving a true sports car! :)

@snoopy10411 Год назад

I think the Boxter would be all the car I need given the price difference and the fact that I love in a country with speed limits, even the entry level Boxter is excessive in terms of performance. I'd probably be using the car as a weekend/summer toy for quick blasts or maybe a short break away to somewhere nice with the wife. I like 911's but my head would overrule my heart.

@johncollymore1697 5 лет назад

Good discussions there - but agree with Thomas. I like the 718's speedy go-kart effect, but not the rough ride. Or price! Good Car Wash joke though! 39:11 brave guy pulling out in front of a 911 - kudos to Thomas's usual calm driving reaction! 42:19 was that a complaining cyclist! That rough road at the end for the 911, is smooth compared to UK roads! Many thanks Thomas.

Had an 2007 Cayman, 2011 Boxster Spyder and now a 2019 911 Turbo Cabriolet. All were fabulous cars love every one of them. 911 is an unbelievable car. Can't go back to the Boxster/Cayman now!

@shelloiluk 5 лет назад

Chia-Hung Lin I would hold off till the 6 cylinder returns or get a 981 model I cancelled a 718 GTS Cayman purchase last summer as when driving slowly through the dealer car park the engine sounds like a go cart. Absolute shit.

@chia-hunglin3737 5 лет назад

shelloiluk Thanks for the advise. Honestly I am in Taiwan and Porsche price here is crazy high. Boxster base model without any option, the price is already equal to the latest 992 in the US (100K US dollar). For me, buy a Boxster is more like a sports car dream comes true rather than driving things. Can’t afford Porsche higher level than Boxster.......

@JMSS3558 4 года назад

@@shelloiluk maybe because you didn't use the Sport mode, which gives you the real Porsche experience. Sound changes The newest 6 cylinder only use 3 cylinders at low speed, rpm, so worse sound, believe me

@shelloiluk 4 года назад

Great review, bravo! I was looking for a comparison between the 718 and the 911 just to convince even more myself on my choice as I got a 718 S last year. I have never experience such handling on this car category, it is orgasmic. Thanks for the review

@nigel.w 2 года назад

S is a much better car than T.

@t-square327 5 лет назад

Thank you for the great and thorough review. I totally agree. 911 has to compete with the super cars like Lamborghini or others, and have to be on the top of the list of the Nurburgring challenge n as a result, it needs to attract the rich people. That’s why it needs more power, needs to be bigger, and be more luxurious. 718 don’t have that pressure. It can concentrate on pure driving experience. So as a result, which is more fun to drive? It’s a pity for 911, because it started as a pure sports car.

@autogefuehl 5 лет назад

thanks for tuning in!

@nigel.w 2 года назад

I owned a 67 911. Personally, I'd rather have a 991 or 992.

@mojozimmer 5 лет назад

Just got a brand new 991.2 Carrera base model (yes a half-year after 992 launching). I’ll say style wise 991.2 is perfect for me, IMHO it will age better than 992. I choose 911 for its relative GT quality against 718, its perfectly maneuverable yet I am not a real enthusiastic driver😂

@shelloiluk 5 лет назад

Gene King I agree. I have two Porsche’s. A Macan S 2017 and old 987 Boxster. Had 4 Porsches in total. I cancelled a 718 GTS Cayman purchase last summer as pulling out of the dealership it sounded like a go cart. The 4 cylinder 718 sound is absolute shit.

@hardtimesbbq5265 4 года назад

Great evaluation, thanks for the video! Price difference is huge!

@richardlucasdba 5 лет назад

I drove the 718-Boxster for 42000 km in past 2 years. The 992 CS cabrio I drove it till now for 13.500 km. Both are great machines. Drove many mountain passes in both and some great open autobahns. You simply can not compare the cars in what they are and what they can do. Yes the 992 exceeds the the 718 in price twice, but the drive fun/feeling/comfort/speed/behaving of the 992 exeeds the 718 at least twice as well, and that I can say after the just 13000 km. The 718 gave me lots of fun, the 911 is a real monster and gives amazing fun. You just need to make sure you use the horse powers to the max. After these 13000km I have my first tire change 😎 so what ever you choose, use it to the max and it will give you great joy 👏👏👏👏

@Riley_1955 4 года назад

I have only driven my 99 boxster base with 47,000 miles on her but between these two the boxster definitely is the better looking p-car in the front or rear......And after seeing your review I think I have made the right choice.

@JingoLoBa57 4 года назад

Good job. Talking more a little about the suspension and ride experience in both units in each mode gives us more idea of the comfort vs performance and the balance vs road conditions how different conditions will feel. Thanks again great job I’ll take two 718’s his and hers for the price of the 911!

HI Thomas, I brought a used Cayman GTS 2018 with 10 k miles. It was in perfect condition and looks like new. It was loaded with every possible option and stickered for 107 k I paid 72 and love it. I only regret is it has the PDK... I like it fine but miss the manual.

@autogefuehl 4 года назад

Enjoy 😉

@paulwood862 4 года назад

Same here just bought a used Boxster S 2019 with £22k of options for £50k - only 9k miles. Pick it up at end of month - cannot wait

@patryan8065 3 года назад

You did it very complete job of an unbiased review of these two cars. All the content was needed and the video flowed very well for being almost an hour long. Wonderful job! I'm a 911 guy but have recently purchased an 981 Cayman for all of the same reasons you outlined in your comparison. The price to value component is clearly in favor of the Boxster/Cayman platform. In America, the 911 has become just too snobbish for my liking... Great job!

@sonalpatel5974 2 года назад

Thanks for the review as I was on the fence between the two. I will definitely go Boxster :)

Excellent comparison ! Thank you for that. I did buy a boxster because I love convertible. I am extremley surprised by the ability of the car to stick to the road in the curves. My wife experienced the car as well and was so amazed by the fact that this 718 is "easy" to drive. Primarily she would have preferred the 911...because of the original Porsche look.
