The way Mark shifts gears up and down is out of this world.
so good that if you close your eyes you would think it is PDK
This is definitely THE Porsche to get. It's perfect for the weekend track day enthusiast. It has just the right amount of power, it's naturally aspirated, 6 speed manual, perfectly balanced... Perfect.
Yes but the gt4 is the one to get!
@@f2bclown Not unless you're a track rat and will fully utilize the GT4's hard edged capability. The choice between the GT4 and the GTS 4.0 is clearly one of personal taste and desired usage. The GTS 4.0 is MY choice because I would drive it FAR more on public roads than on the track, so an appropriate balance between performance and comfort is a priority for me. The calculus may not be the same for you.
bro it's not even fucking electric, what do you mean perfect? It's primitive garbage.
@@Danuxsy What the actual fck are you even talking about? You do realize that only .45 percent of new vehicles sold in the USA are electric, right? Even by the year 2040 it is predicted that just half of all vehicles sold will be electrified. Get a clue and stop acting like an EV nazi.
f2bclown yes but the turbo s, gt3 rs, gt2 rs or 964 rs is the one to get (or macan if u go shopping a lot)
The cayman is a fantastic car. Mark Webber was just having a good time out there, considering he usually gets up to around 200 mph when he was on track. Good review. 👍
Mark Webber reaching for paddles @8:42 😂
loving the German accent; it's almost as if this is what the 718 Cayman would sound like if it could actually speak.
:-) Many thanks for watching the video!
Watching Mark dance with this car around the track was a real treat!!!
Wonderful presentation!
Thanks for doing this in English. It actually made it more authentic to hear it with a German accent.👍
Damn Mark. That’s seeing f1 in action in regular cars. That’s some crazy driving.
Indeed!
Great video 🤓!!! Last February 2023, I acquired my new 718 Cayman GTS 4.0 which has the 4L NA flat six cylinder engine (same unit as a GT4) and a PDK gearbox. Power output (394 bhp) and torque (317 lb-ft) are a nice match to this car's sensible curb weight (~3200 lbs). The color is Gentian Blue metallic with a black/chalk all-leather interior and silver wheel rims. It's definitely an entertaining driver's car!
So far, I've only done 452 miles but hopefully a lot more this coming Summer! The PDK is also a lot of fun (it's definitely quick) 🤓
All the best and thanks again from Colorado!
"Porsche...There is No Substitute!!!"
Car really rotates well. Looks super easy to drive. Mark is still my favorite F1 driver.
German accent is fine, you produced a great vid there! 👍🏻
Very many thanks for watching and your comment!
That, to me, is the real 911-that is, what the 911 once was, before it became a two-door Panamera.
Wow! That was vicious, but clever.
lol bs. its not a 2 door panamera. its what ppl who cant afford prestige say that on the new 911. the 992 is the same width as the 991 4S .
Cant you just appreciate the Cayman n the 911 ?
@@aviator-kn8zq you’re absolutely wrong!! When I bought my GTS it specked out at $115k, I could have easily bought a 911. Tested a 911 the day my GTS finally arrived at the dealership because my wife wanted me to. I drove it right after driving the Cayman GTS.....noooooo thank you! Compared to my Cayman, it felt big, saloon like and just not what I expected. The pure driving that you get from the cayman is way better than the 911 in my opinion! I’ve own 3 caymans by the way, one S and 2 GTS!!
Cayman all the way for me!
@@aviator-kn8zq lol.... A status snob I see? I had the pleasure of doing a Mid vs Rear Engine comparison at the Porsche Driving Experience for this very reason, to compare drivability. The Cayman GTS took a massive shit on the Carrera S I drove. The Carrera felt like a big soft boat. boring is an understatement... the rear engine pulls you towards the wall on every corner while the Cayman GTS inspires excitement and confidence from the moment you get into the cockpit and hugs every corner. My heart was set on a Carrera GTS 991.1 but after my experience I'll be placing my order for a Cayman GTS (with a few aftermarket upgrades ie headers, pipes and short shifter). it is a DREAM to drive.... waiting on the economy to collapse, stay tuned.. lol.
@@svgitana2499 Same conclusion. I did the Mid vs Rear engine comparison at the Porsche Driving Experience in LA. Cayman GTS ALLLLL DAY.
I have an order for the 718 Boxster GTS for 2022. I like the convertible, and the 4.0L flat six naturally aspirated engine is the same as the Cayman you drove. I did not order the carbon brakes on mine as I will not do much track driving and I did get the Carmine Red color with the chalk white leather seats. Very nice video indeed. Thanks. My expected delivery date is 05 November, 2021.
Did you get it?
Another great episode! You speak way better English than I would German. The accent is cool!
Paw paw paw, Mark truly a wonderful racer and driver, he showed us how one can be rewarded with patience, eg, look at the GTS on the tricky long slow right hand corner, Drifting and waiting for the best time to squeeze the maximum out of the acceleration, and his braking was perfect display of balance and control. Cheers Mark great job and I can't wait to order my own GTS! Thank you!
That was an enjoyable video. Thank you. Good to see Mr. Webber out on the track too. German car German accent. All good!!
Many thanks for watching!
Nice video and great to “ride along” with Mark W
The accent is great. Love the vid too!! Keep it up!!
Great footage. Really got to appreciate the look of the car
Great stuff, keep up the good work.
Nice,
well balanced and not silly and macho. pleasant to have a German accent for a change I worked in Munich for a few months in the late seventies ( at BMW ) so the accent is fine by me.
Good luck for the future, I have subscribed.
Great vid. Very exciting car. I have one on order. That same color blue with the silver wheels. Projected delivery in March 21. Gonna be a long wait.
Nice job, if Mr Webber is in all your videos then damn right I’ll be subscribing 😉
Thumbs up for Mark’s driving alone!
I use to race against Mark in clubman light. He still looks light, I would be a heavy now .lol . This is going back to when I was 21.
Good old Penrith day. Go the westies.
Ian Farr-Wharton - I just like his commitment to the throttle as he passes the apex 👌!
His best corner was the last one going on the straight. Still good for hos age.
Ian Farr-Wharton there’s another in-car with driving the GTS, where his driving was much more accurate (ie hitting the apexes properly!), and yet he was even more dynamic with the steering response needed to cope with his early, and yet committed throttle application...
This is the proper spec! Love it
Great video!
The Cayman design rocks. With it we have both rear and front boots. Engine right behind us. It's a dream to drive on mountain roads. No faux seats in the rear. Only 2 people can ride in it. In the more recent models, the rear windshield has a shade that hides what's sitting behind the glass in the trunk space. Where I live, people like to steal things when they can see them.
I have the 2L Turbo 718 base model and with it's lighter weight, it's a wonderful beast.
I wish the 911 had adopted as standard, a rear hatch like the Cayman. Porsche did with one of the Targa series. Otherwise the rear interior of the 911 is a big waste of space. It's hard contorting my body to reach back behind the front seats in my 997.2 to put stuff in the back. Looking past that, the 3.8L 9A1 engine + PDK along with those rear hips, oh man.....
This may sound really bizarre, but I want the Cayman and Taycan to have a couple babies. I would be an instant buyer of one of the variants. I know that Porsche must be working on this. I can't wait!
Great video 👍🏻
Great, thanks for the video. Loved it. The Cayman is far more sensible than the 911
Nice video!
Great review and driving :)
Very many thanks for watching the videos and your comment.
Your German is accelent! Nice review:)!
Awesome!
Thanks beautiful car!
Yes Ill buy it. Would get the Boxster as well though
How's the gear ratio? The 981 Cayman GTS is also a nice alternative Good review Subscribed
You don't have to excuse your German accent, it's 'cute' as a lady of mine said to my accent...hahaha!
"Zeigen Sie mir ihre Papiere ! "
What tires were you using on the track? The regular pirelli it came with?
Keep the accent. great job! keep them coming!
Many thanks!
Thanks for great in depth review. Is the rear GT4 difuser optional, region dependant or just absent on this pre preduction example. Was under impression that on cayman gts it is standard.
It is Standart, in fact it is a different one than on the gt4. A little lesen aerodynamically extreme
That looked like around 1:56 .....a second slower than a 458 Italia....that’s amazing.
Yeah but, who's driving that 458 at 1:55? Probably not Mark Weber...
Cool, another Conrad!
E una bellissima macchina
Che c'è lo che mi dà grande soddisfazione è una grande macchina
I think the 7 speed dual clutch PDK is now available in this car model.
This is going to be an expensive video.
from 9:45 pure music!!! I love it!
Porsche Gentian blue colour V's Ferrari Tour De France blue colour. Which blue is the best????
Mark accelerated out of the corners like he should. Many non pros do not.
Amazing, indeed.
Great car good review handles corners way tighter than new Corvette which fishtails and dances
Its a beast with PDK
Proper sports car! No double-clutch, turbo 4WD BS here!
10:27 He runs it perfectly to the top of the long gear and back down.
That was great........REAL. Men like ladies !
Vielen Dank!
awesome! however, as a 718s owner, i think you probably get about 95% of the experience with the base 718 ... It's too bad the new 6 cylinder doesn't sound as good as the old 6 ... now that was sweet sounding!
That can be fixed, throw money at the problem.
This one sounds a little angrier compared to the 981.
Totally agree!
Finally, a true German reviewing a true German car. Hervorragend!
He sounds like Arnold ! What an accent!
no need to apologise for your accent. Your engilsh is better than most english speakers.
Precious
This is the first time that i have seen Germany this sunny.
The driving event took place in Portugal :-) but yes, we do have sunny summer days in Germany, too.
Bladdy gad bloke!
Mark Webber the cool 😎 Australian 👍👍
Just listen to it! I’m assuming that’s an in car microphone. Beats the burbling motorboat racket from the turbo motor.
He speaks very well english
👌
Those F1 drivers don't like oversteer do they!! (Please don't apologise for the accent, your English is excellent.)
Toto Wolff's cousin and almost as clear 😝 good quick review
These type of cars are getting really rare. This is a fantastic car however it is getting quite expensive. Problem is there are not that many options in Europe at least if you want to buy something new.
I have an MX-5 which is in no way similar to the GTS but similar in so many ways at the same time. If you want to have a fun drive both of them will for sure give you a smile in different ways.
Mazman thumbs up for the MX-5. Which one do you have?
MX-5 isnt compare to GTS, in EU you can buy GTS new 80000 EUR, VAT payers 66000 EUR
9:25 LMAOO
Dieses Denglish 🤪✌🏻
Also Mark: “Where on Earth is the setting for aero lift-off??”
🤣🤣
With metrics it would be perfect. Like G, speed, gear..
The gear is easy to see in the gear cluster. He mainly switches between 2 and 3
There’s another panel gap on the rear 3 quarters. That’s new
GT4 for me if sitting on a 718 platform
At 2:54, When dude slammed the fronk lid down I cringed...I was like no ! dude...set it down and palm press it clickety click...holy cow I couldnt believe my eyes.
In one of your videos I would love it if you would say: “I must break you!”
Noted!
"Dont worry I like the ladies"
That comment by Webber was gold
Aussies can still tell like it is 👍🏽
Perfect car to escape in
Thank you for watching the video.
My dream car...
Audio is slightly behind video.
Never slam the frunk lid!
Love Mark (non gay way) the sort of guy you could watch the rugby with and have a pint doing so... No bullshit.
Oh jes ju did aweri gud tschob
The rear light mist up !
Never any need to apologise for an accent. It makes you sound more interesting.
With Porsches you never slam either hoods because they are aluminum, you close them then push down and latch them, otherwise you will dent or warp them.
not true, my Porsche Macan has clear manufacturer recommended way to close the hood at it is to drop it from horizontal position, pushing them down could generate an error of hood not closed.
@@olasek7972 I was under the assumption you were driving a Cayman.
@@dougmaverick3287 Cayman may have identical hood closing procedure as Macan, btw, Macan’s hood is also aluminum
@@olasek7972 all I know is for the Porsche Boxster and Cayman you close the hood all the way down and then push it until you hear it click closed.
You never ever slam it, as they are made of aluminum.
I know what I'm talking about I owned a Boxster for 10 years.
@@dougmaverick3287 not sure what you call slamming, in my aluminum hood Macan I am supposed to drop the hood from the horizontal position, if procedure is different in 718 so bit.
"Affordable", $100k+ moderately equipped.
German accent is king
4th Gear - 7210 km/h 🤔😂 i need to upgrade my 981 to the new 718 GTS I can’t get any faster than ca. 280 km/h
Just kidding, there should have been a pause after 7000 or a comment about rpm 😁😅 so it sounds like you said you are driving 7210!! 🤘🏻😋
If you let your face hair grow and get some rings, you too can look like Richard Rawlings.
apparently its possible to make a totally unexciting video about a very exciting car. 13:42 of my life I won't get back.
DId you see Mark's driving? Otherworldly....
i would've bought one until i saw that aussie flog drive it!!
Make a wooden one ☝️
not a good investment
It's already a mistake to see a car as an investment
🙄
its 2020. Why does it still look like a Coxster
the only way to sell a PORSCHE is with a GERMAN accent!!!
We know you're hetero, Mark...relax.
I am german - but I really can't stand that accent -ouch!
Drive more - talk less!! I can read all that stuff even on Google!
Too small for a 2 seater plus the price is not worth it. This should be priced at $50,000 USD. No wonder I don't see more people here in the USA driving this overpriced not-worth-it car..
It’s cool car but very
close to $100k, with a couple of options. The only affordable new Cayman is the base version for $60k. Then you’re in the 4 cylinder turbo which is fast enough for most. It’s exhaust note may not be as good but I’m not spending another $50k for an exhaust note. Base Cayman for $60 or Cayman S for $70 NO OPTIONS PLEASE! Manual only!!
GT4 is the buy a tiny bit more expensive with GT car residuals
Digga labber doch einfach Deutsch wenn du kein Englisch kannst. Corona für meine Ohren so schlimm. deshalb werden solche Kanäle niemals groß.
Awesome!
