    I am a 4RS owner and I don't find it too loud at all but just GORGEOUS! I just completed a 1,300 km rallye over 3.5 days on twisty mountain roads with it and it was just 🥰!

    After years of 911’s I have a GTS 4.0 Boxster and absolutely love it, great.engine, right size for U.K. roads and electric roof

      Spot on - the 981 and 982 718 NA GTS whether Cayman or Boxster are fantastic. Also owned plenty of 911s inc RS. Not a great fan of the 992 GT3 or GT3 RS. The 991.2 GT3 touring and 991.2 GT3 RS are better looking and more engaging. My personal picks are the 981 GTS, 718 GTS 4.0L, 718 RS Spyder or 4RS, 991.2 GT3 touring and 991.2 GT3 RS. The 992 GT3 is a more anodyne version of the 991.2 GT3 RS and the 992 GT3 RS is over blown although a technical tour de force.

      Totally agree, had a 991.2 GT3 previously which was brilliant then a 992 Targa GTS which I wasn’t a fan of, too heavy and long / wide.

      And for me that's the small fast roadster to own, great engine with electric roof. If the RS had the electric roof for me it would be perfect just can't understand how adding a few KGs to give it an electric roof mechanism would have in any way compromised the cars abilities

    Great video! For the range, just tick the 90L tank option and sorted out!
    Convertible, GT3 Cup engine, pdk and drivetrain from 991.2 gt3rs and lighter than any 991/992 gt3(rs)! To me it is the best Porsche for road trips and occasional track day!

    Nice review Joe. No problem hearing you during the video at all. Shame that you had to deal with the rain but as you say “that’s GB”. I have always thought that the Spyders were beautiful cars, but I would never own one because of the roof. I would sacrifice power, looks to a degree, and prestige just to have the standard electric roof. And, that’s what I have.

    Great review. The Spyder RS roof seems best left in the garage. That said, my idea of a nice drive is running my 2010 S in Rocky Mountain National Park to summit at 12,000ft in Nov while experiencing light precipitation. Given full heat with vents positioned properly, parka, hat and gloves it's far warmer than a motorcycle.

    I have once driven a 2010 Cayman S and love it since that drive. Amazing balance, amazing engine noise, amazing transmission noise, just loved it.
    I would probably "need" either a Boxster GTS 4.0 with the upgraded shorter 2nd gear retrofit kit (manual, that is) or if getting the transmission redone is far too complicated then just go for the PDK and get roughly okay 2nd and 3rd ratio.
    The induction noise festival and extra oumpfh of the RS must be amazing, but probably I would be blow away by the "pedestrian" GTS 4.0 already :-)

    I just wish it wasn't a spider top but a normal sane top on there. The plastic fabric known as Race Tex looks horrible wet or even sweaty and absorbs sweat odors. A horrible fabric that also makes static charge in the winter and attracts dust, makes me shock when I get out of the car.

      I love the top, and the more race-tex the better imo. I don't know if you sweat excessively or just stink like garbage, but I've never had any issues with any of the things you mentioned when it comes to race-tex. One of the big reasons I got Weissach was the race-tex dash.

    As an owner of both the 4RS and the 718 Spyder RS, I can say I really like the 718. That said, I wish they would have made the top electric! I know it's more weight...but it makes the usability so much higher. Overall, a great car. Glad you enjoyed it as well! Last of its kind for sure.

    • @hbullock
      @hbullock 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      You’d lose the spyder humps and likely need some targa / mc20 motorized contraption.
      Weight had nothing to do with the inclusion of this top. It’s the easier to explain excuse.
      The only reason this car got green lit at all is that it has almost no development cost (over the 4RS).

      @mazer327 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@hbullock IDK that I agree with the "weight had nothing to do with the inclusion of this top" comment. They put a sticker on RS models b/c it's weight savings over the actual metal crest. They are obsessed with weigh savings on every single one of their RS models. I'd say it certainly had something to do with it.
      Using your rationale here, they could have just taken the top from the 718 Boxster.
      There's a lot of changes here between the 4RS and the Spyder RS, so not sure I agree with your explanation.

    • @hbullock
      @hbullock 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @@mazer327 I’m not sure you read / comprehended my post. The taller intakes on the gt3 motor preclude the regular spyder top; it won’t fit . If a regular spyder top won’t fit, a regular boxster top definitely won’t. And a regular boxster top would retract where the spyder humps are, anyway, meaning you’d lose the humps…which makes a spyder a spyder. So you can’t fit a “better” top without a major redesign. Sure rs = lightweight, but the lightweightness of this top is a serendipitous fallout of the necessities imposed by the other limiting factors. If you’re not following…never mind. Have a nice day. :)

    Why are you driving in the rain with the roof off? Most people take the 90 Liter gastank, you can drive than up to 700- 900 km 500 miles +

    Surprised at your comments on the suspension and comfort on UK roads. I have a 718 Spyder and it’s awful. Can’t wait to swop out the existing Cup 2s to Michelin pilot sports.

      I understand from other reviewers that the Spyder RS is softer than the previous regular Spyder and closer to a GTS setup. Porsche is usually quite good at responding to customer feedback on its models so although I’ve not driven an RS to verify for myself, I think it might well be true…

    its better, and you should go for a manual, 718 spyder.

    Why Spyder not spider?

    On a equal power and equal suspension the Spyder will faster on the track too. This has been true since Van Overbeek the AMLS driver tested the first Cayman R against the first gen Boxster Spyder on a karting track. The Boxster Spyder was faster on every lap. Removing the weight on the top is a no brainer for a faster lap time.
    p.s.
    Why do the genius Porsche engineers insist on making the top on this car so needlessly complicated. A simple manual top that can raised and lowered from driver's seat with one hand. The Mazda Miata figured this out in 1989.

    There is no manual option, and that roof yikes! My manual perfectly speced 718 Spyder is the one for me. Awesome machine nonetheless...!

    Like Rolex special customers this sales profiling will come back to bite them, Ive been offered two Rolex watches this week and declined them both two years ago I would have taken both, just like I got knocked back for one of these Porsche will struggle for customers in the not too distant future hopefully

      I’ve exactly the same issue. Am an existing 2 x Rolex and 2 x newish Porsche owner (all 4 purchased brand new so I have a brand history) but can’t get another Rolex or any Porsche GT model because I still haven’t spent enough, frequently enough, with those brands.

      In case you hadn't noticed, I was filming a video, roof up would have made it impossible light wise. Plus, I was still clearly enjoying it, as I'm sure you would in a Spyder RS.
