Porsche Cayman 718 GT4 PDK Review: Why Do We All Lust After A Cayman GT4 So Much?!

Here is my Porsche Cayman 718 GT4 PDK review. The Porsche Cayman GT4 in PDK form is a very impressive set up. The porsche cayman 718 GT4 has always been a car i have enjoyed drivng but in PDK form it takes it to another level. We get an extra gear, shorter gearing, 0-62mph is half a second quicker than the manual car. I hope you enjoyed this video on the porsche 718 cayman gt4 pdk!

Nice job with that review. I own a 718 GT4 with PDK. This car IMO is the most enjoyable sports car I have ever owned. And I have owned three 911’s.

Awesome review. These weren't on my radar. But now it is. Them bounces off the rev limiter are pure magic

Hello. GT4 has the best chassis ... steering feel ... gearbox ... at this price level. Full bucket seats are very uncomfortable. They are not for every body. To solve this problem, Porsche recently brought the 3D-printed bodyform full-bucket seat. I would choose the standard seats and the pdk box, which is much superior to the manual one. There are many very interesting sports cars, but for me GT4 is my dream car. Good luck

Own a Porsche Spyder - I love it, been a 987 it has hydraulic steering which is more feelsome than the 981/718 generation and the 987 Spyder is considerably lighter! I have a Lotus Emira on order and cannot wait, that will truly be the best of all the modern cars for feel considering its still got a hydraulic rack, manual and glorious V6 sound track and cost even less!

My long term dream will be to own a GT4, the purity of that naturally aspirated engine is testament to engineering craftsmanship. I lust after the Cayman S 981, as a mare mortal it will be at the detriment of some stock and share ISA so I have to wait patiently until it is financially right. Watching Stef may be the closest I will ever get to owning GT4 without upsetting my financial plans. I really lust after the Cayman GT 4 as I don’t like turbocharged cars, I will rather keep my straight six e86. Thanks Stef for bringing this spectacular piece of automotive marvel to my screen.

Why would you do a launch with only one hand on the wheel?

[JamesWilson]

Superb review! Drove it properly. I’m totally sold, just waiting for my perfect spec to come up and I’m joining the club. 😊

[GeorgiSlavov]

I will bite: I would not say I lust for it, though to my eyes this is the best looking Porsche and this is why I would take the spyder version(instead of 911) as a second fun car, the first one being Lotus Exige V6.

Beautiful car, awesome sound and i love guards red, but whoever spec’d the red trim in that interior…

[limalimauk]

Glad my phone is waterproof! I found myself drooling all over it 😋

[sbc]

Just YES ! Thank you, I'll take it! Nothing else to say 💯😍❤️🔥🏁🏆

Great review.
And 100% with you on the carbon seats. Most uncomfortable seats I've sat in, no lower back support, and too hard.

My local dealer gleefully said they would be adding $50K USD to each one they receive.

So how does this compare to the TT RS? I'm contemplating the GTS 4.0/2.5 vs TT RS or wait for the Lotus Emira reviews.

The TT seems to be the most affordable for the spec preowned and I'm sure they will be cheaper in a couple of years as well.

I don't think the GT4 offers enough on the uk roads over the GTS and I won't be on the track.

[final_mile_music]

Nah. Has to be manual if it’s a second car for fun. Amazing as the PDK is.

It's about the noise! 4.0L is the number 1 reason. Number 2 is the chassis and handling. It's the reason we buy sports car. If not for the noise, electric cars are faster.

[GethinJames]

Every single reviewer "complains" about the long gears.

You said it "Perfectly Balanced, Arguably one of the best performance sports cars you can buy, it sounds phenomenal, the power delivery... phenomenal, the handling... it's phenomenal... all round package, is there a better sports car for the money? Not sure..." That's why people want them.

I think the Spyder is much better looking.

Did you just say you prefer FWD cars over RWD cars?! I'm struggling with that comment. I don't understand.

[NickG]

Only if you’ve got plenty of money to use it on track, gearing is so tall you’re done in 2nd on the road - so despite it being a great shift, you don’t get to do it much!

[electricpineapplemusic]

pretty sure i saw this passing in my Taycan CT a week or so ago.

[Timboo]

What were the roads/area that you drove to, I thought I recognised a few from my local GT4 jaunts?
