The Porsche Cayman GT4 RS takes the 911 GT3 engine, and packs it in a mid-engine car!

The Porsche 718 Cayman GT4 RS is the pinnacle of Porsche Cayman, packing the 911 GT3's 4.0L boxer 6-cylinder engine, with nearly 500 horsepower. The naturally aspirated engine revs to 9,000 RPM, while delivering immediate response and torque. This is paired with a 7-speed PDK from the previous GT3, giving it the most aggressive gearing in a Porsche GT car, matched with the small platform of the 718. How does it all work out? Beautifully. This is truly among the best drivers cars out there, despite not carrying a stick-shift transmission. Out on the track, it's difficult to think of what can match the joy.

Quite enjoyed the GT4 RS! For anyone interested in learning more about the engine specifically, I have a full deep dive video on it: https://youtu.be/8xByM10KM2k

You gotta give it to Porsche. Easily the most aggressive factory launch control out there. And it works great. And you can use it back to back to back to back and it couldn't care less lol.

A 9hp drop from 502 down to 493 is a bargain for the increased handling that the mid engine layout will give this car.

"We don't really care what the top speed of this car is, we're just trying to make it really fun, really enjoyable to drive..." THANK YOU. I wish more companies would adopt this ethos. What a car can do on paper is meaningless. How it makes you feel is what matters. Losing sight of that is why this industry is such garbage these days.

Jason, you should do more videos on vehicle maintenance. Making your car's engine, suspension, and transmission last as long as possible, and the common long-term failure points in these systems. From a scientific perspective, of course :) Love your videos!

I love the unbridled joy in Jason's face. Engineers have a reputation for poor emotional communication, but he manages to not only explain engineering, but he clearly loves it and shares that love with his audience.

The stance, exhaust note, and styling are all 100% perfect.

What I like about Porsche? They are not overly-fancy, they are not record setter in terms of pure numbers, but these are cars made for the most effective experience on track days. These are proper driver cars!

Never cared much for Porsche until I started getting into road course stuff. After my first cayman s I really started to appreciate what they build. Not many cars off the dealer floor can take track beating like a porsche over and over again. Caymans are definitely my fave of the choices though

As a huge Porsche fan I really enjoyed this. I love the behind the scenes information you get from chatting to the Porsche engineers about why they did things the way they did. So cool.

I love how you can hear the roar of the the intake, it's not coming through the car speakers, and I'll bet it is pretty quiet outside of the car. Porsche for the win! Thank you for sharing Jason!

I'm so glad Porsche is getting the recognition it deserves from the whole car community. In terms of drivers cars, these are the best.

They finally gave their car that has the engine where it belongs enough power! We all knew they were holding the Cayman back all those years. I owned a 987.2 and the handling was amazing.

I’m glad you did this video while driving. It’s more entertaining seeing you drive around a track while explaining the science . That GT4 RS sounds amazing 🤯

Oh My God, that sound. The GT3RS was already on the top for my dream list I think the GT4RS just knocked it to 2nd...

Best looking CAR ever build. That's what I dreamt of 30-40 years ago, playing with our matchbox toy cars on the floor.

Porsche has been putting out some amazing cars to round out the end of internal combustion.
