That’s all you bro! I’ve been following your channel since the beginning. The love and passion you have for the GT3 can be seen through the GTS or a GT4. Nothing beats a 911 👍🏽
First off, love your videos. The cinematic quality is so refreshing (framing, transitions, color grading, etc.). Second, I would get the model you like most, even if it means going a year or two used. I've had brand new cars and some of my favorites were very used models. But then again, it's not a permanent decision. Have fun with it! Cheers, man.
After thinking about this car fro some days and as much as I just loved this 911, even with that massive price tag I realise that for my first sports car I want something more hardcore which I think makes an older GT3 in need of a test drive next!
Makes total sense Luke. Take your time, there is no rush... I was thinking of the 911.1 GTS, also slightly over my budget. I bought the GT4.... I spent 6 months looking, researching, and finding the right car with the right spec. My advice is to avoid over extending yourself in terms of budget.... Also, make sure you enjoy the whole process of looking, testing and eventually buying.... 😀😀😀
I really like your honesty considering prices and financing etc and as a viewer you can feel your love to cars to badly in every single video. Compared to others you are absolutely not fake (to keep the TH-camr face) and thats why we all can Identity with your words so much! Keep on mate! 💪🏼
Remember that the 450ps are Porsche horses, rated at the most extremes of elevation & hot environments it will be still produce 450ps. Unlike other manufacturers who um shall we say aren't as generous haha!
Porsche, there is no substitute :-) Nice to hear you're considering an older GT3 as an option. 997 was a fantastic generation of analog-feel vs the 991. I love my 997.2 Turbo. Best of luck on the search!
It is incredible how much you like Porsche. Honestly, if I have enough money to fool around I would buy one for you. Unfortunately for me and you I don't have it. Sorry. But keep on and I am pretty sure you will buy one! Until then, just keep on with your videos. Cheers man.
Cars with Luke cool - keep up the good work: visuals/audio and car selection. You also need to get on the Ring and Spa Francorchamps. It will change you 😉
First of all, great videos Luke. I understand your passion for the Porsche brand. I am in my 50's and have loved Porsches, since I was 8. We lived near a dealership, when I was a kid. I haven't been able to get one yet, but I can see it happening within 5 years. I love to see and hear your feedback on your test drives. I can picture myself doing that soon. What worries me, is how to spec the 911 or Cayman, so many choices....lol Best of Luck !! I think the GTS might be a better daily driver, if you can pull it off.
Just dont go over your budget. That is just plain wrong. Period! Just take Cayman GT4 and enjoy! Its limited edition Porsche so it will hold its value 100 times better + it has much better components than GTS you are looking at right now.
Hi Luke!! New subscriber from Sweden here, glad you liked the GTS, I have a Guards Red on order, delivery may 2018. I tested it in october for a quick test drive but I got hooked pretty fast!! I can pick up my twins from kindergarten and do quick laps on the local track the next day, perfect car!!! Looking foward to following your dream of buying a Porsche!!
The GTS gives me the same emotion as a G30 540i M sport. Certainly an enjoyable car that I would be HAPPY to drive...But when you see that price tag it sucks the life out of it. It's too short of a leap (financially) from its superior bigger brother
Hi Luke I drive 2 Porsches in Switzerland and I know the market pretty well, with your budget I would go for a first gen 991 GTS or wait for the 718 GT4 ...hopefully with a flat 6......great channel keep them coming
The GT4 is great, but looking at the Swiss Porsche page, the 718 GTS is already at 100.000 CHF - without any options. I don't see how he'd be able to afford a 718 GT4 given his budget. Plus, availability will probably lead to markups. I think a 981 Cayman GTS or a 991.1 Carrera S / GTS depending on what he can find would be a great choice.
I've been following your Instagram for a long time and I had no idea you had a TH-cam channel! Subscribed just now as the videos are awesome and genuine!
911 GTS in Crayon is my dream as well Luke you have great taste . I have a 718 which I love , don't discount a 718 Cayman GTS in Crayon as you could order a brand new one on your healthy budget .
Look at a 991.1 GTS, they are normally aspirated, very fast and sound glorious. Also they are less expensive than a practically new car. Also look at a new 991.2 Carrera T, 140k CHF, manual gearbox and you can fit carbon bucket seats and Porsche offer great finance.
Nicd vid Luke~ porsches' 450ps , that's to the wheels , crank HP is considerably more than 450ps for sure and while i personally think gt4 is nice, go with what you personally think is the best for yourself and the channel. While i do prefer to see something with MANUAL, and porsche... ummm will not get enough of that.
Hey bro, I recently went in to my local Porsche dealership and speced out a 911T for CAD $130k. I believe it starts at $110. Same power as a base 911, but some really cool options that the base 911 doesn't get. You should consider a 911T and a a GT4.
I have the new GTS with PDK and it is phenomenal. It is expensive but please consider residual value. At the end, mileage cost is cheaper than many, many other cars!
Absolute love the color combination of the car. You should drive the same car without center lock wheels. 2 times the comfort and same handling. Also having a Porsche of my own with a PDK, manual shifting is only good for remembering old times. the PDK is out of this world.
Very much enjoyed this video Luke. Best of luck in your search. I received my 991.2 GTS in manual last summer and enjoy the ability for the vehicle to go from an aggressive ride to a smooth cruiser. I drive my car daily and have no regrets👍🏻. 991 GT3 would indeed be much more raw but finding a good one will cost you.
Luke, another great film. I am really enjoying your story, (especially as a fellow expat). Porsche. I love them and have had 7 911’s so far... There is something about the 911 that is very special. I had 991.1 GTS before I left the UK. You might get a 3 year old one near to your budget, so please drive and film it. Honestly, it was the best car I have ever had; the noise alone will leave the 991.2 wanting.
Thanks very much, 7 of them is a lot! You must have a real passion for it. I’m excited to get my first one whatever it is and yes if I can find one I will make a test drive with it :-)
Such a cool video, Luke! - Makes me wish I had the garage space for this very car in crayon with the manual gearbox... Will be lusting after it for days now.
It really depends on what you wanna do. If you are looking for a pure daily driver, most probably GTS might be better. It is more comfy and has 2 more jump seats compared to GT4. But if you are looking for some track days and fine with harness, check the market. There are a lot of GT4s with good prices.
Nice! Any thoughts on the ultimate question of PDK vs manual in something like the new GT3? I guess PDK is faster on a track but the manual is maybe more fun and engaging on the street?
Love the channel. I would suggest you only drive cars that are within your budget. I enjoy watching the different cars, but you may run into the issue of the car you can afford not being as good. Ignorance is bliss! I would look at the 997 GTS (perfect daily), 991 Carrera or S, 997 GT3 (not a good daily), and the 997 turbo (great daily - beast but not track focused). The GT4 is obviously an amazing car as you know so that is definitely in the top list. I would personally find a non turbo car because over time they will be more rare and you may even make a couple bucks. By the way - check out an air cooled car. They aren't anywhere as fast, but a vintage 911 is a treat to drive and experience. Happy searching and take your time!! Get the car you want with the options you want. Adding anything later is not cheap.
Good video. I personally love the targa 4gts. Hope to get one in the next year or two. That’s a nice coat by the way! Oh...your camera work at the top is nice!
Great video, love the GTS 991.2 although I prefer the PDK personally, I did a video too (have a look ?) , I have a GTS on order and waiting and waiting.
Porsche are for the purist forever young a dreamer and a boy racer. The sound of the flat-six every morning is intoxicating makes me just wanna hit 9,000rpm every time you floor the gas pedal.
Yeah discovered channel a few weeks back and SIC bro, keep it up. Looking to get my 1st Porsche in April 2018 with £20k down, would love a 991.1 GTS 4 but out of my budget so as most people have said, pick the right car and take your time. I'll propabably go for a 991.1 4S with a high spec as this car will be my daily, work, shopping everything.
Thanks mate, good luck with your search and yeah I will take my time and enjoy it also. Let me know what you end up getting, the 4S is for sure a car you can use for event if and have a lot of fun on the twisty’s 😃
What kind of camera do you use, Luke? Sony A7RII, III? Ever think about selling presets for your photos or doing a video on how you color correct your videos? I don't know if you know but those videos get a lot of views these days.
Just coming back to this - I actually retract my statement. Now my GT3 has arrived, I can honestly say the GTS is nothing on the GT3. Yes, the GTS is a very usable car, but it lacks all of the theatre, feel and control that the GT3 has. ..GT4 it is for you i think Luke.
Luke, save up some more. Because you're never going to be happy unless you get exactly what you want. A Corvette Grand Sport is closet to the GTS and below 100,000 Swiss. Then you have the Lotus below 100k. Also the Honda NSX is at 100k Swiss(discounted).
Hey Luke great watching you test the new GT3's it reminds me of my 1st drives of these amazing cars. Having owned a number of Porsches over the last 30 years I need to tell you that if you are a driver and spend a reasonable amount of time behind the wheel of a GT3 (any model) then its going to be hard to be satisfied with anything else that does not have a GT badge on it!! I recently went looking for a 991.1 GT3 CS as I wasn't sure if I would be successful with my registered expression of interest on a 991.2 GT3. The thing that I found was that all GT3's are so fast as road cars with incremental improvements(only) in handling and power as the newer ones became available. In saying that there is a big step change in feel between the 997.2 and the 991.1 GT3 for me. - the 997.2 feels smaller/more intermit, more visceral with amazing steering feel as opposed to a larger more current cockpit which i feel is less engaging. The overwhelming feature of 991.1 is that its a fast car with its PDK transmission swapping cogs that quick that you are at insane speeds before you know it however, I'm not on it like that all the time when driving on the road which is 80-90-% of my driving of the car, so I was left with very little to do when driving the car and not on it. I chose to buy a 997.2 GT3 CS for now. RE GT4 they are an amazing car however I just love the shape of the 911!! The GT3's all sound amazing so there is no disappointment there the 997.1 or .2 I think is the sweet spot. Good Luck and keep up the enthusiastic videos.
Porsche power delivery is without a doubt one of the best, they have the least amount of hp loss through the drivetrain and ive seen many many people claiming that Porsche hp feels like much more than it is
Hi Luke. Nice video! If you come in Lausanne, you can test my 911 GTS 4. It has still the naturally aspirated engine with 430PS. The sound is better than the turbo version and 4WD give a feeling of security especially with wet roads. I have the automatic version PDK wich give extra comfort in the daily drive without loosing the sportivity. Anyway it is not to sell! Cheers.
What about a Macan GTS? I know its a "SUV" however I've just purchased one in the US, under a 100k and its essentially a 911 but bigger... plus you can fit people and gear in the back. Its mad when it comes to how quick it is as a SUV tbh.
Will watch the video later but I can already comment that this is my dream car! My objective is to own one (Or Carrera 4s) in 2019... Can't wait to have your impressions on this car and I truely hope you'll get one! (Along with the 10x more subscribers you deserve)
Try a Cayman GTS, it is almost 350hp, but feels faster, it’s light weight, rare only about 1000 built or less, less than 400 in America, but not as costly as a GT4, and they are more attractive than regular model caymans in my opinion and have kept strong resale value. Plus the motor sounds awesome with pops and bangs, and last but not least it’s naturally aspirated.
Hi Luke! What do you think about the new Carrera T? Seems to be a great drivers cars and a bit cheaper than the standard carrera s etc. I think you should consider to test drive one in your "My next car" - series, i would certainly enjoy it. Love your videos - Keep it up! :)
After 2 years or so, I still come back to re-watch your epic videos on Porsche...great content!
That’s all you bro! I’ve been following your channel since the beginning. The love and passion you have for the GT3 can be seen through the GTS or a GT4. Nothing beats a 911 👍🏽

Yeah 997.2 GT3s are superb! Go for it
good idea
IZzelYy 🙏🏻

Mark Lawrence Thanks! You said it perfectly and yeah don’t want to totally screw myself on finance and then have to live in a tent 😂
I really like your honesty considering prices and financing etc and as a viewer you can feel your love to cars to badly in every single video. Compared to others you are absolutely not fake (to keep the TH-camr face) and thats why we all can Identity with your words so much! Keep on mate! 💪🏼
Thanks mate, very good to hear, like I said to others I’m a terrible actor so can’t be anything but myself 😄
In my opinion one of the best car channels on youtube! Keep going!
sir_dw Happy to hear it, thanks for the support 🙌🏻
Remember that the 450ps are Porsche horses, rated at the most extremes of elevation & hot environments it will be still produce 450ps. Unlike other manufacturers who um shall we say aren't as generous haha!
This the best cars channel on TH-cam actually 👌keep going mate
Porsche, there is no substitute :-) Nice to hear you're considering an older GT3 as an option. 997 was a fantastic generation of analog-feel vs the 991. I love my 997.2 Turbo. Best of luck on the search!
Fiat is a good substitute imo
the quality of your videos is so good! love it!
Amazing video, as always :) Keep going, it's a pure pleasure to watch them !!!!
It is incredible how much you like Porsche. Honestly, if I have enough money to fool around I would buy one for you. Unfortunately for me and you I don't have it. Sorry. But keep on and I am pretty sure you will buy one! Until then, just keep on with your videos. Cheers man.
Stick with Porsche and you’ll never look back 👌. I enjoyed your fondling the Alcantara sequence - 😂
Terry Forth Hahah thanks mate, wasn’t erotic at all 😳
Cars with Luke that’s what made it enjoyable, it didn’t seem contrived or scripted! Natural is always best imo 👍
Terry Forth Ha thanks, natural is the only way I can do it because I’m a terrible actor 😂
Cars with Luke cool - keep up the good work: visuals/audio and car selection. You also need to get on the Ring and Spa Francorchamps. It will change you 😉
First of all, great videos Luke. I understand your passion for the Porsche brand. I am in my 50's and have loved Porsches, since I was 8. We lived near a dealership, when I was a kid.

Classic watching this today as I look at 2019 GTS’s. Great job making amazing videos for so long Luke. Holler when you’re in Colorado.
Apprecita it, that model and year is possibly still the best one.
If you had one Porsche to daily drive for the next five years that was a manual and under $180,000 what would it be?
Cheers from the U.S.! Just started watching your videos and I love every minute of them!
Keep up the quality content!
Thank you! :-)
This is not a car, this is a piece of dream and art.
Nothing describes the feeling when you bought one.
I try so hard to watch the whole video before liking it, today I made it to the 2:00 mark. Good luck on the hunt!
Very happy to hear that 😄 and thanks, few more test drives to come.
Just dont go over your budget. That is just plain wrong. Period! Just take Cayman GT4 and enjoy! Its limited edition Porsche so it will hold its value 100 times better + it has much better components than GTS you are looking at right now.
Unless 718 GT4 comes with a 4.0L (or even 3.8L) which would make Cayman 981 GT4 price drop significantly I suppose...
GT4 value has been dropping drastically this year. Mainly due to the new models coming out and suspension turret failure.
I swapped the GT4 for a 991.2 after 6 months, most who have owned the gt4 would disagree
Hi Luke!! New subscriber from Sweden here, glad you liked the GTS, I have a Guards Red on order, delivery may 2018. I tested it in october for a quick test drive but I got hooked pretty fast!! I can pick up my twins from kindergarten and do quick laps on the local track the next day, perfect car!!! Looking foward to following your dream of buying a Porsche!!
Any car you get you make it look good! Love the vids
I like how this is a series with a goal. Amazing GTS btw, omg..
The GTS gives me the same emotion as a G30 540i M sport. Certainly an enjoyable car that I would be HAPPY to drive...But when you see that price tag it sucks the life out of it. It's too short of a leap (financially) from its superior bigger brother
Yeah exactly, for this price I would then go straight for a GT3! One of the best cars though that can be used for a lot of fun and a daily
Hi Luke I drive 2 Porsches in Switzerland and I know the market pretty well, with your budget I would go for a first gen 991 GTS or wait for the 718 GT4 ...hopefully with a flat 6......great channel keep them coming
I think a 718 GT4 would be really bad.
?
The GT4 is great, but looking at the Swiss Porsche page, the 718 GTS is already at 100.000 CHF - without any options. I don't see how he'd be able to afford a 718 GT4 given his budget. Plus, availability will probably lead to markups.
I think a 981 Cayman GTS or a 991.1 Carrera S / GTS depending on what he can find would be a great choice.
the 991 GTS is sub-lime
the exhaust is so loud (stock FYI) and intoxicating
The Cayman Gt4 is perfect as it is. It's a weapon!
I've been following your Instagram for a long time and I had no idea you had a TH-cam channel! Subscribed just now as the videos are awesome and genuine!
Thanks and welcome to the videos 😄
You are the best....forget all those wrapping guys....this is pure...honost....GREAT WORK MATE, greetings the Netherlands
That’s intro was unreal! Great video, I’ve been looking at so many cars lately and I always keep coming back to the 911 GTS!
Thanks and yeah I also find myself coming back to it 😄
911 GTS in Crayon is my dream as well Luke you have great taste . I have a 718 which I love , don't discount a 718 Cayman GTS in Crayon as you could order a brand new one on your healthy budget .
jeremy mitchell Thanks and yes very true! 718 Cayman might even be my next test drive video 😄
Cars with Luke - I think it is a great option can’t wait to see the video Mate .
yessss 718gts is a buet
Great fotage Luke, you've got your own theme going on in your videos and that's really nice, keep it up
Love the quality of this video!
Look at a 991.1 GTS, they are normally aspirated, very fast and sound glorious. Also they are less expensive than a practically new car. Also look at a new 991.2 Carrera T, 140k CHF, manual gearbox and you can fit carbon bucket seats and Porsche offer great finance.
Nicd vid Luke~
porsches' 450ps , that's to the wheels , crank HP is considerably more than 450ps for sure
and while i personally think gt4 is nice, go with what you personally think is the best for yourself and the channel. While i do prefer to see something with MANUAL, and porsche... ummm will not get enough of that.
Hey bro, I recently went in to my local Porsche dealership and speced out a 911T for CAD $130k. I believe it starts at $110. Same power as a base 911, but some really cool options that the base 911 doesn't get.
You should consider a 911T and a a GT4.
This channel deserves to grow so much faster. Keep up the good work, Luke.
Love the GTS
I have a manual 2009 Cayman 2.9. Really no need for anything else. I love it. My fifth Porsche.
Great video Luke!
That Porsche tho 😱
What a car! It is not flashy like a GT3. I love the GT3...in general I love porsche but this GTS is simply spectacular! You are very lucky man!
It’s stunning isn’t it, like I said, maybe the perfect one car 😃
I have the new GTS with PDK and it is phenomenal. It is expensive but please consider residual value. At the end, mileage cost is cheaper than many, many other cars!
I'm in love with my 997.2 GTS natural aspired
Get the 991.1 naturally aspirated gts
Absolute love the color combination of the car. You should drive the same car without center lock wheels. 2 times the comfort and same handling. Also having a Porsche of my own with a PDK, manual shifting is only good for remembering old times. the PDK is out of this world.
Take a 911 T for a spin, it should be marvelous and its a lot more affordable
I really need to, a friend of mine owns an older one and always goes on about it and how you don’t need more than that
Very much enjoyed this video Luke. Best of luck in your search. I received my 991.2 GTS in manual last summer and enjoy the ability for the vehicle to go from an aggressive ride to a smooth cruiser. I drive my car daily and have no regrets👍🏻. 991 GT3 would indeed be much more raw but finding a good one will cost you.
Total dream daily Driver!
One of the best cars that have ever been built. Sporty (Also for the racetrack) but also A Great daily.
Exactly! A car I would totally be happy living with!
What about a 981 boxster spyder? Something different to the gt4
That GTS is lovely. Great colour/spec too. Great video, as always, Luke.
Thank you and yeah it’s nearly the perfect spec for me, looks wise it’s stunning!
Luke, another great film. I am really enjoying your story, (especially as a fellow expat).
Porsche. I love them and have had 7 911’s so far... There is something about the 911 that is very special. I had 991.1 GTS before I left the UK.

Thanks very much, 7 of them is a lot! You must have a real passion for it. I’m excited to get my first one whatever it is and yes if I can find one I will make a test drive with it :-)
Cars with Luke I didn’t mean to have so many, but to be frank, no one makes sports cars quite like Porsche.
always coming with the fire visuals!
Such a cool video, Luke! - Makes me wish I had the garage space for this very car in crayon with the manual gearbox... Will be lusting after it for days now.
I love your videos Luke, Now go buy a GT4
wow, the spec full is so cool crayon and black wheels- ceramics brakes 😜👌
Perfect!
It really depends on what you wanna do. If you are looking for a pure daily driver, most probably GTS might be better. It is more comfy and has 2 more jump seats compared to GT4.

This my favorite Porsche, it’s perfect.
Second hand 997 Gt3 is the go. I have one and its epic, more engaging that almost any car out there
Good video. I personally love the targa 4gts. Hope to get one in the next year or two. That’s a nice coat by the way! Oh...your camera work at the top is nice!
Great video, love the GTS 991.2 although I prefer the PDK personally, I did a video too (have a look ?) , I have a GTS on order and waiting and waiting.
You should test drive the 718 gts too. I mean, not a 6cyl, I know, but still an awesome car!
If you want a manual Porsche this would be amazing but you could also consider the Cayman GT4!
Great car and great quality video man. Would you mind saying what camera you used to film this video please, thanks.
Awesome car! Manual transmissions for the win.
Yep, I totally loved the manual
Porsche are for the purist forever young a dreamer and a boy racer.
The sound of the flat-six every morning is intoxicating
makes me just wanna hit 9,000rpm every time you floor the gas pedal.
Comments like this are why I love making Videos with Porsche, you wouldn’t see people saying that with many other car brands
Definitely my favorite Porsche , let’s say first in my bucket list , but as you said it s a lot of money even financing !
I think you might like the 981 Spyder over a GT4 🤔
Yep, was looking at it the other day, with the roof down that thing looks hot!!
I think the gts is probably my dream car. Perfect all around package. Would also kill to be able to have a 964 done by singer as well.
Oh yeah a singer will one day be in my garage also 😍
Can't wait for the next video Luke!
Thanks 😄
Yeah discovered channel a few weeks back and SIC bro, keep it up. Looking to get my 1st Porsche in April 2018 with £20k down, would love a 991.1 GTS 4 but out of my budget so as most people have said, pick the right car and take your time.

A Cayman GTS is also truly amazing too!
Nice video, impressive shots! Which gear do you use?
I commented that you should get a 991.2 GTS (specifically mine!) and here we are!
BUY IT LUKE.
Haha yeah it’s so nice 🙈 one more test drive video to go then some time to think about it all :-)
Just coming back to this - I actually retract my statement. Now my GT3 has arrived, I can honestly say the GTS is nothing on the GT3. Yes, the GTS is a very usable car, but it lacks all of the theatre, feel and control that the GT3 has.
..GT4 it is for you i think Luke.
Luke, save up some more. Because you're never going to be happy unless you get exactly what you want.
A Corvette Grand Sport is closet to the GTS and below 100,000 Swiss. Then you have the Lotus below 100k. Also the Honda NSX is at 100k Swiss(discounted).
Hey Luke great watching you test the new GT3's it reminds me of my 1st drives of these amazing cars.

In saying that there is a big step change in feel between the 997.2 and the 991.1 GT3 for me. - the 997.2 feels smaller/more intermit, more visceral with amazing steering feel as opposed to a larger more current cockpit which i feel is less engaging. The overwhelming feature of 991.1 is that its a fast car with its PDK transmission swapping cogs that quick that you are at insane speeds before you know it however, I'm not on it like that all the time when driving on the road which is 80-90-% of my driving of the car, so I was left with very little to do when driving the car and not on it. I chose to buy a 997.2 GT3 CS for now. RE GT4 they are an amazing car however I just love the shape of the 911!! The GT3's all sound amazing so there is no disappointment there the 997.1 or .2 I think is the sweet spot. Good Luck and keep up the enthusiastic videos.
Hi Luke,
Loved the video, keep it up 👍🏻
On a sidenote: That's a cool winterjacket - what is the brand?
Cheers!
Love it! What is the name and code of the color?
Porsche power delivery is without a doubt one of the best, they have the least amount of hp loss through the drivetrain and ive seen many many people claiming that Porsche hp feels like much more than it is
Hi Luke. Nice video! If you come in Lausanne, you can test my 911 GTS 4. It has still the naturally aspirated engine with 430PS. The sound is better than the turbo version and 4WD give a feeling of security especially with wet roads. I have the automatic version PDK wich give extra comfort in the daily drive without loosing the sportivity. Anyway it is not to sell! Cheers.
Would like to hear some editing tips from your side!
Maybe will make a video on that in the next next months
991.1 naturally aspirated gts, that's all! Try it.
You deserve more sub and views luke
You've driven both GTS and GT3, if gun to head, which would u choose (assume money no problem)?
yup, that's what I'd get, but a targa. Whats the color? Thought it was chalk gray.
What about a Macan GTS? I know its a "SUV" however I've just purchased one in the US, under a 100k and its essentially a 911 but bigger... plus you can fit people and gear in the back. Its mad when it comes to how quick it is as a SUV tbh.
This has to be it, 100% i'd take one of these!
Sorry it was that good ... another thumbs up!!! Loving it!!!
If you are sure you want a new manual car then I would say a high spec GT4 with an exhaust system would be perfect!
You can also get a 981 Cayman and mod it accordingly! Works out to be cheaper than a GT4!
Very true! Although don’t really want a 4 cylinder, whatever I buy, sound is important
Will watch the video later but I can already comment that this is my dream car! My objective is to own one (Or Carrera 4s) in 2019... Can't wait to have your impressions on this car and I truely hope you'll get one! (Along with the 10x more subscribers you deserve)
Thanks 😄 and yeah this is a bit of a dream car, so much luxury and fun in one package
Cars with Luke Just tagged you on IG about a first hand 991.2 GT3 on sale here... 😀
Try a Cayman GTS, it is almost 350hp, but feels faster, it’s light weight, rare only about 1000 built or less, less than 400 in America, but not as costly as a GT4, and they are more attractive than regular model caymans in my opinion and have kept strong resale value. Plus the motor sounds awesome with pops and bangs, and last but not least it’s naturally aspirated.
That transition was dope!
🙏🏻
really liking the video's luke - hoping you can get your channel to where you need it to be, I have youtube red and leave your video's on auto play :)
Thanks very much! appreciate the support :-)
You don't need the PCCB. The steel ones are absolutlly good enough! And you save about 10k euros
What you need to be for beeing a car tester? ( sorry for mi english ) Pd: I love your channel !!!
Maybe a Cayman GTS? ;)
They sound awesome! And with some modifications u have a GT4. :)
Hey Luke, can you please explain how the GTS engine feels compared to the GT3’s naturally aspirated one? Cheers
Hi Luke!
What do you think about the new Carrera T? Seems to be a great drivers cars and a bit cheaper than the standard carrera s etc. I think you should consider to test drive one in your "My next car" - series, i would certainly enjoy it. Love your videos - Keep it up! :)
One of your best videos Luke. How much are the Gt4s in CH?
Thanks and you can buy a good used GT4 here for around 100-115k with maybe let’s say 10 thousand km
