      Fabspeed Motorsport Stock headers on this I presume? Just over the axle PPF delete & new muffler? I heard the stock muffler is pretty well engineered by Porsche besides weight. Besides weight savings.... do you gain much more with a stock muffler delete with sound & performance gains over just the PPF delete?

    @francoisboisvert1591 4 роки тому +9

    Well, this was 13 minutes of pure heaven. I've never been a huge fan of Porsche but the way you talk about it almost has me in love with it. The video is one of your best Dan, from the editing during the speed test to the cinematography of the opening and let's not forget the rain drops on the car at the end. Nothing's perfect but this has got to be as close as you can get 😉

      Thanks for the kind words as always! I’m glad you enjoyed it. I feel like to me this was sort of a continuation or sequel if you will to the Lotus video I did a while ago. It’s been a while since I drove anything very track focused besides the ones in my garage, but it’s just one of those cars that check off all the boxes and if you think about what it can do, the price point doesn’t seem that absurd anymore (especially not as absurd as the M4CS).

    Phenomenal video! Great breakdown including accel stats and beautiful filming. Like you I'm an Exige owner and everything else under 150K feels pretty blunted, but this seems to hit most of the buttons so it's the next natural progression. I had a deposit in and was waiting for a build date when Covid hit. I am not buying this till I can do it a pickup from the factory, break-in driving over Swiss and Italian alps, and finish off with successive days on the Ring and Spa before sending her home. Your video just makes me savor the dream even more. Till then, flogging on the Exige continues and morale is way up the harder she's driven.

    • @alpnstr
      @alpnstr 4 роки тому +1

      @@wearethetraffic Actually it's a really tough call between the Evora GT and the 718 GT4. I've driven the previous GT4 but yet to get in an Evora GT. I was doing the GT4 just to go Porsche after 6 years of Lotus ownership and to do the whole EU pickup experience. I would consider a Hethel pickup if they offered one. I suppose from there to the ring is just about enough time to break it in. I have some time to figure it out since Americans can't go anywhere for quite a while.

    • @wearethetraffic
      @wearethetraffic 4 роки тому +1

      @@alpnstr Understandable... I have been considering leasing the Lotus as its decently priced and I know the owner of a Lotus dealership very well so pricing would be more favorable. Recently acquired a older 06 Carrera S so I would get to have both brands under one roof for a while. Thanks for the reply

    • @alpnstr
      @alpnstr 4 роки тому +1

      @@wearethetraffic if lotus pricing is favorable through your friend you should have both. That would make a lovely garage! I think the evora has so much presence. The Carrera S will be the understated drive and the evora is just as good looking as a supercar IMO. I love the look in fire red metallic or air force blue.

    • @SpeedLabsMotorEnvy
      @SpeedLabsMotorEnvy  4 роки тому +1

      @Harry Kwan Thanks! Sadly, there’s no replacement for the Exige nor do I think there will ever be. Even though this Porsche comes close, you just can’t match the pure rawness and how visceral the Lotus feels. But you’re right, once we get to a certain point in your biological life, your spinal cortex begins to starting looking for more comfortable track cars.

    Best Porsche review without fanboyness. If I could have another Porsche, I would have this specific one.
    Also, we traded my lotus evora 410 for a carrera T. We still have the evora GT. I will admit that the Carrera T was more of an Impulse Buy for my dad and I guess he's happy. But he wants me to drive it and all I could tell him is that this 1 car is the only thing that made me realize how much I miss my Mustang and the performance I got out of it. It's so slow that I think my Volvo can't keep up with it but not pass it. 😬

    Beautiful video as always. You’re the best man. I went from a boxster s to a c7 stingray to a c7 z06. It’s actually hard for me to be interested in a boxster/cayman again. They just feel too tame and boring compared to the Z06. I love that wild beast and what it’s capable of. I’d love to see you drive a 911 gt3 and/or a regular carrera s and compare them to this cayman gt4

    • @SpeedLabsMotorEnvy
      @SpeedLabsMotorEnvy  4 роки тому +1

      @TheEvilPadawan Thanks brother. That’s an interesting progression of cars. I agree, if I never had a Z06, I may be tempted with the GT4. Truth is, I was spoiled by that power/torque curve. Anyway, we should be seeing more Porsches on the channel now so I’ll try to get those in. GT3(RS hopefully) is on the bucket list.
