Good to see you out enjoying the drive so much. That's what its all about 💪
You got that right.
Good to hear your driving is improving Matt!
Poverty white is still my least favorite Cayman color but your videos are helping it grow on me
So glad to see Matt ripping it up. One mile at a time. 👍
Matt...The fact your out ripping in your new Porsche in the Rain with no wipers is a massive step forward in your journey surely to being able to drive where and when you want again!!
Have Boxster GTS 4.0 Manual on order. Glad you like yours especially after owning GT3 and 4's.
I like the sound, and I agree with you, Porsche, there is no substitute 😁👌🏾
Gives me a big smile to see you driving Dad 🤙🏽
Great choice for a mountain road ripper
Think you made the best decision on this one Matty! The GTS is the PERFECT mountain car, and the renters are extremely lucky to be able to experience that.
Great car, glad you are enjoying it! Throw in some BMC air filters to further enhance the induction noise. 👍🏼
Reminds me of the time I broke my wiper arm two years ago and relied on Bead Maker during the late winter months, lol. It is beautiful to see you come full circle and enjoy the simple things in life and thrilled with the driving experience with something less advanced than what you are used to. I believe the GTS is definitely a better fit for visitors but more importantly give future drivers an introduction to the Porsche family of cars, which I find rather important.
Love to see the satisfied smiles on your drive. 👍
You captured the essence of the porsche experience, very unusual for a review to perfectly capture how you feel when you actually get behind the wheel
Miss these kind of videos. Please do more!
Damn look at that storm @12:50
That's an average day here in Florida.
Always here for the Porsche content.
Coming back to this video as i saw the car on Porsche Wilmingtons site..... lol
Good seeing you out driving Matt , I did a St. Petersburg drive from Cleveland Ohio and was going to stop at OG , but I got nervous so maybe next trip I make haha, Love driving, I’ll go anywhere one thing I wont let anyone take from me.
Stop by anytime.
You could do the clear UV tint, keeps it protected from the sun
Good to see you driving pal! 👍🏻
the cyaman series of cars are really special cars. Yes they're not as fast or powerful as the GT3 or 911 but cayman cars have an emphasis on balance, agility and overall driving dynamics.
Never thought I'd hear Matt say "I wanna keep driving" 👍👍
With that weather this reminded me of a storm chasing video.
Really enjoy your videos about this car. At my dealer allocation wasn’t really an issue and I really wanted a GT4 RS but couldn’t justify that kind of money for a daily driver so I ended up ordering a GTS 4.0 in almost the same trim as yours.
This is the best road going Porsche.
Aventurin green with silver wheels would be my spec. ❤
Really enjoyed the drive and listening to you. Car sounds awesome. You sound awesome. Enjoy.
So nice to see you driving! Keep it up! Working on doing the same myself
He knows better about engine break in than the engineers that designed it!
It will be gone before it hits 10k miles, you think he cares?
Someone needs to get you a towel
I’d wager the Porsche engineers aren’t the people that came up with goofy break in procedures. Why is it 1,000 miles? Why not 900. How about 2500? You mean to tell me that at 1001 miles there is something different about the car that makes it now broken in?
@@ObsessedGarageI imagine mileage amounts are estimated safety nets for reliability (or liability rather).
I like this car Matt. I can tell you are connecting with it. Makes the right noises and the PDK is a nice compromise it seems.
I always enjoy your car reviews! You can really tell that you provide your honest assessment 👍!
Awesome to see you driving Matt!
44 miles I'm liking it Matt
I have the manual and I drive in year round in Detroit. Some snow tires and good to go.
Great Video Matt! The Car Sounds Great!
G80 M3 is beautiful. I don't understand why folks think that car is ugly.
Such a good relaxing video to watch Matt. I am glad to see you so relaxed too. You should get one of these as your daily one day.
Ha.. maybe I should.
Cool to hear your driving is getting better man! In my 992 911 GTS I can pull the paddles and be in neutral. Not sure exactly what PDK i have honestly. Lol. Love the GTS level of these cars. For the same reasons you mention. Love the white and black spec on your car
Long overdue drive & talk. Love these classics!…
I'm trying to do them more.
When Matt says “ I’m so in love” means car is getting sold before you can change your socks 😅
Almost a bigger jinx then when he says this will be a long term or forever car lmfaoo…. GG mate live your life honestly 😅
Maybe, just maybe this should be the OG beater. Its not much more than the EVO and its something you love but could replace. I can understand the feeling of waiting for an allocation, building exactly what you want, making it perfect and wanting it to stay that way. OG should just do a 24 month lease on a GTS, you drive it for year one, it goes to helen for year two and then you return it.
hey matt, loving that your driving is improving. separately, im looking at a GTS for me in 2024 as part of my progression. if you could be happy with one i think i could be happy with it as my first porsche, its time to ascend into the porsche community.
Go for it man.
Go for it before the electrificated génération.
Matt, you probably won’t read this, but I honestly think that you would love the 992 Carrera T.
All the power you need for an awesome daily driver. Can option the car with manual, buckets, Burmester.
T is about to disappear with the upcoming 992.2 Hybrid, so might be a good investment as well..
Lots of people keep telling me that. I just don't think I'd like the turbo.
@@ObsessedGarage Base 992 engine feels practical NA with the small turbos. S & GTS have a noticeable turbo lag, not the T..
You can now get carbon ceramics on this Cayman GTS, direct from the factory. You should definitely get a white 992.2 Carrera S or this same GTS in manual Matt, if you feel happier driving a non-GT car around.
I can't do the turbo 3.0. It's sounds terrible.
@@ObsessedGaragesure, but surely still sounds better than another daily you might use like your Rivian or EVO 8? If you don’t want to daily a GT3, then it’s either Cayman GTS or something else?
Think the steel brakes is perfect for this car. Wouldn’t waste putting carbon ceramics on it granted they are easier to clean but not a big deal.
Lovely car Matt! Probably a better road car than your GT cars. You should definitely get one as a Florida daily - especially since Porsche will stop production of the ICE Cayman at some point, and go electric only! Check out the White Collection Porsches being sold by RM Sotheby’s!
That's just the way things are going now. The 718 is expected to be fully electric before 2030.
@@ObsessedGarage exactly Matt, not a huge amount of time if you wanted an ICE Cayman ordered to your spec for Florida.
Call me crazy but this engine sounds a lot like a US E36 S5X engine. That's not a bad thing either.
APR can sort you for the paddle pull for neutral!
Matt if you can drive in that rain you can drive in anything 🙏🏻💪🏻
Why did you think he couldn’t drive in the rain?
Didn’t say he couldn’t drive in the rain. I know he has issues driving. If he can drive under those weather conditions he can drive under any.
@@ruberube2855 what issues?
I’ve always believed in what Francis says even before I found the OG channel and that’s “Leave it better than you found it”
We have adapted that at work for working in units at the plant. Go in fix it and leave it clean and better.
Great to see you back driving Matt and loving the 4.0. I can confirm that if you pull the 2 paddles the gearbox goes into neutral. Have a look at the Zunsport grilles if the Rennline ones aren’t to your liking. Have you seen the Ninemeister GT4RS style exhaust tips? Still made from titanium but a fraction of the $3k from PORSCHE at $850. Well worth a look in their shop. More videos on the GTS and Brewster please.
Thanks for the info. I'll look into them.
@@ObsessedGarage👍🏼😉
Matt you should totally get a 992 for everyday. The 9A2 evo turbo cars sound great, are more modifiable than the GT cars and make perfect everyday drivers.
White with black rims Carrera t stage 1. 😍
Matt, you should consider an option of letting people just “Rent” the car without the house. I think your 1500 per week is reasonable and I would be interested for example, and would be more than happy to wash it to OG spec, but the house is over the top for me. Not sure if logistically it could work, but just food for thought. Hope your ideas work out and you find lots of like-minded and wealthy ‘customers’. Cheers.
$1500/week for just the car?
Maybe in the future. For now the car is only included as a part of the house.
The car seems to be really amazing. I always looked at GT4s, but I guess with this being 90% of that at a lot less money, you could get a OG M2 or something like that as a "beater" and the GTS 4.0 for nice driving.
Really useful video. The metrics where a GT4 would really be better are at a track or really high speeds.
A very interesting car would have been a 992 Carrera T with this 4.0 400hp engine. For the guys who want pure driving, na engine seat delete etc, but can't get the GT3 yet.
90% of a gt4? How did you come up with that?
Matt. You can go to neutral by pulling both paddles simultaneously. I believe you cannot go back to gear with the car moving. Have to be stopped. Kinda wonky and guessing there to rev the engine maybe. 🤔
Nope just release the paddles while moving. It’s like neutral
Get a daily PDK Carrera T. Sounds like that might work for you!
Would like to hear more on your decision/opinion about not doing breakins, just curious. Perhaps something you've dove into deeper on one of the wash and talks?
Just drive the car like normal. Don't bounce it off the redline a bunch of times and the car will be fine.
When that Altima passed both of you and you didn’t even flinch, hahaha.
4K drive and chat please. I remember it was 4k before?
Great addition! I would add a warning to new drivers to avoid late braking and trail braking through corners. With the light front end and small 235 tires very easy to understeer through a downhill sharp corner if someone is coming from a front engined car with a lot of weight over the front, which is more forgiving. As you know the mid-engine cayman requires a differnet style of driving but is much more rewarding when driven right!
Excellent point.
Is it cutting season? Looking slim bro!
Working on a new diet.
Anyone else besides me knew that Matt was going to turn around at the church?
can you do a video on how to disconnect the exhaust valves, I would like to do the same on my 718 gts
Funny enough, my Spyder has cast iron brakes and the brake dust is significantly less than my GTS 4.0, which just puked brake dust after every drive.
The Kline system sounds better than this, more high pitched as it has an X pipe. This sounds like duelling 3 cylinders because the banks are not mixed. I have the Kline on my GT4, it’s legit.
The engine in the GTS 4.0 is not related to GT cars (GT3/4). The boxer engine is based on the same engine family as the engines in the current 911 Carrera model range. It is a bored out version of the 3.0 turbo Carrera engine.
The 718 Cayman GTS engine is a direct relation to the 718 GT4.
Surprised you didn't go Dundon Exhaust on it..
Dundon doesn't make a very compelling exhaust for the 718 variant. Kline and JCR are the most common catback systems because they have an x-pipe design that gives the car a much closer sound to a GT3. Stock 718s and even those with just OAP replacements sound like trash (IMO and relatively speaking) because they don't combine exhaust banks for that high-pitched wail. Instead, it sounds like two 3-cylinders because each cylinder bank essentially has its own exhaust in the stock muffler configuration. I went with the Kline stainless system on my 718 GT4 and it transformed the exhaust tone to be much more GT3-like.
@@austina4893What if Matt doesn’t like the GT3 tone, then what?
This should’ve been the beater
You should at least do a full front PPF.
The D.O.G vehicle 😂
Any chance we'll get another Wash & Drive soon?
Hopefully soon.
I think you NEED a gt4rs
What do you think of a targa as your daily? I know you dislike convertibles but the targa looks and feels different from regular convertibles.
It's just not for me.
“Maybe I need a regular 911 for driving around town”…..
….Evo beater cries in the corner of the Yarn building. 😅
you dont look like you're freaking out at all?! Just keep driving into the sunset bro!
@Matt, I noted you didn't plug the holes when you disconnected the vacuum lines. Have you gotten any alerts/errors? I'm curious about what issues might occur if I force the valves open at startup and perform the same vacuum line disconnect with the OEM link and exhaust.
Since it's vacuum and not electronic, it's not smart enough to know there is nothing there. I've never gotten any errors on GT cars.
For the PDK:
- you can actually pull both for neutral. Then pull any paddle to put it back into gear
- you can bounce off the rev limiter
- GT4 does NOT have pdk-s. Only the GT4 RS has that
Source: have had multiple pdk caymans. Currently also have a GTS 4.0
Thanks for the tips.
Yep I have a GTS 4.0 PDK, It will bounce off the limiter in manual in both Sport and Sport Plus if you don't change gear in time. It will go to neutral if you pull both paddles together. It is exactly the same as a GT4. The GT4 pdk sport button is the same as putting the GTS in Sports Plus in terms of shifting speed, clutch engagement.
Hmm…it wouldn’t engage neutral for me.
I didn't know that the GTS 4.0 and GT 4 have different PDKs. Could you maybe explain to me what's the difference between the two? I want to buy either a GTS or a GT 4 but I'm undecided yet. The GT 4 is cooler but I have the option of configuring a GTS 4.0 to my likes so I'm not sure. Also maybe the spoiler is a bit too over the top for me 😂
I'm not sure I have that correct. I was assuming the GT4 PDK was the same as the GT3, but I'm don't think it is.
Best value for money Porsche you can buy at the moment sadly 2024 will be the last year of production.
What do you do to the GTS 4.0 PDK to get the pops and bangs on decel?
It's just from the Soul Performance exhaust.
@@ObsessedGarage I didn't hear anything with your GTS, it was quiet. I was just asking if there is a way to make it do that popping which I would like my GTS to do.
Doesn’t running in the car properly prevent engine problems in the future ?
I haven't had any problems yet. Just doin't drive the thing like a maniac and let it warm up. It will be fine.
What spacer setup were you planning for this car?
7mm and 15mm spacers from Rennline.
Hey Matt, who is working on your steel to ceramic brake swap. I am also in the market for this. Thanks!
Hinz Motorsports
991.1 GTS
What happened to the evo?
I still have it.
Sounds like you need a Turbo S in your life now.
If you disconnect the valves in the 991.1 is it any different than PSE on?
On a .1 Carrera, the button opens the valves. On a GT3 the valves close as soon as you move not matter the mode.
@@ObsessedGarage good to know - thanks
Pdk or manual?
It's a PDK.
@@ObsessedGarage which one do you prefer)
"love" a car? lol.
Tu peux pas t’empêcher de faire le malin 🐷
And you probably spent close to 113k on that stupid Evo when this should be your daily, lol.
*FIRST*
LET'S DO THISSSS....
🤠🤠🤠
If you close your eyes it sounds like an F80 😆
😭it really does
