- Rory Reid reviews the new Porsche Cayman 718 GTS. This version uses Porsche’s epic 4.0-litre, 6-cylinder engine to good effect, but is it an improvement on the standard 4-cylinder car? And could it possibly be as good as a top-spec GT4?

If you bought this instead of a GT4, how would you spend the change?
AutoTrader I bought this instead of the gt4, because I don’t have the change. Also it’s impossible to order a gt4 anymore.
I would spec this with PASM, torque vectoring, and sport chrono if it is not already included. Assuming there’s change left over after, I would get a Cobb tune to give me that last bit of GT4 horsepower that’s locked away in there.
My garden needs landscaping so that’s how I’d spend the change
NO NEED TO USE CAPS LOCK IN THE TITLE
I have a GT4 and even if I would have known Porsche made this available I would still have opted fot the GT4. It is my opinion that the extra $$$ are plenty wotrh it
How awesome that Porsche listened to the fans and put a 6 cilinder engine
A Porsche is best with a flat 6 engine. (:
Sad part. Majority of the fans can't afford to buy it.
william hotchkiss That’s what makes it what it is. It can’t be a Civic then we’d see them everywhere.
I decided not to wait and purchased a 718 Cayman S and have never looked the other way. The 2,5 cyl Turbo engine deserves more respect it's seriously powerful and the sound isn't that bad it's just silly comments.
Christopher Berg no it doesnt, for 15k more than an s u get one of these now, id rather have an 981 s than the new 718 4 cyl, actually i did lol sound is awesome
This is now now my favourite car reviewer. He does know how to sell a car
There will definitely be a Cayman GTS 4.0 in my future. This is literally the exact car I wanted Porsche to build, it's basically a 'GT4 Touring' and I'm surprised they didn't call it that. I know it's not due out until next year, but I hope they get the configurator online soon.
did u get the cayman
@@combativesoup1684 I meant WAY in the future when I retire in about 8 years. I'm still in saving mode now.
The best 718 review I watched so far ;
Great review Rory. Probably the best review of the 718 GTS yet (and there have been many). Your comments regarding the engine being the soul of the vehicle definitely ring true. Well done!
The best car reviewer on UA-cam, the whole video is brilliant 👍🏻
One of the very best car reviewers out there. It's just lovely to watch this. Shame that you don't review that many cars.
Rory and AutoTrader team, brilliant review - thank you. You were grinning through the whole review. Boxster GTS 4.0 for me ✊🏽
Rory they are keeping you busy ! Plus you are now able to present and share cars properly, good luck
His character on camera is more expressive on this show. Compared to the other one he was on. ;)
Another Brilliant review by a Brilliant presenter.....
Have watched all the UA-cam reviews but none conveyed the true feeling of the car like you have. I've seen to the dealership and I'm early in the queue... Can't wait.
You sir put together one of the best reviews of this gem of a car, well done man, keep them coming!!! With the change from not getting a GT4 I’d get Cup2s and a truckload of coaching at the Ring, Spa, Portimao and Silverstone!
Thanks!
Just brilliant! I love this Cayman. Especially the looks inside and out as well as the performance! Great review Rory.
Loving your new videos Rory. And love the 6cyl 718s!
What a treat! Fabulous review of an amazing car. Couldn’t ask for more!
Rory should team up with Mat Watson from Carwow. Those 2 would own car reviews on UA-cam! 👍🏻
Mat is so funny as does really good detailed reviews
Henry Catchpole too
@@abassi1173 lol he was in Carfection for a while, but I'm glad he changed because now we can have two great reviews of the same car.
Oh another fact is that one of Carfection filmmakers is here now too
Giovani right I remember he did the X7 video for them. A collab would have been nice tho. The best collab right now is throttle house plus Jason Camissa and Randy Pobst
Man, how am I just finding this reviewer? Really top shelf stuff here!
Excellent Review. No start following and boy did i missed out all this time. excellent job champ.
Thank you for this great review. What a pleasure!
Those glorious shots and amazing review 🔥🔥
Keep going
Incredible review Rory, as always. Thank you!
This is going to be incredible with a proper exhaust and few minor tunes, looking forward to see what people can do with this!
Rory Reid's reviews are always superb, job well done, yet again!
Still Winter here in Montana. But days getting longer and roads cleaning up. Just took my base 718 out for the first time in 2 months+. I have to say even the base car is BRILLIANT. The manual is so good. Yeah the 6 cyl sounds better but even the base car is still an absolute JOY. Great review by the way.
These videos are brilliant! Rory delivers so well!
Rory Reid is at his best again! Another great review. Old habits die hard 👍😁 but in this case that's a good thing.
You are really coming into your own with these videos. Keep up the am amazing work sir
Great car, great engine and a great review Rory! Nice work! Enjoying your reviews.
Cheers Stephen! Make sure to subscribe.
Wow... This is a really awesome review of an incredible car. Thank you!
Thank you! I’ve been waiting your review on this car. Glad Porsche made it, and hope they did not ditch manual and flat six.
For me the best review of a Cayman GTS 4.0 on UA-cam. This car has a soul inside, amazing machine.
Great video Rory. I’m obsessed with the 911 but this made me appreciate the 718.
"Look at that idiot in the 4 cylinder Cayman!" he says holding up 3 fingers! 😂🤣
😂😂😂😂😂 REKT. -Rory
AutoTrader Are you referring to the one that just passed you. The puny 2.5 l 4 Cylinder is still faster than the 4.0. Racing drivers don’t car what the car sounds like. They want to win. All this obsession with sound at the expense of efficiency and speed. Sounds like nostalgia! Next you’ll be saying electric is doomed! The world is changing.
Andrew Sepahpour except cars like these are driven 99% of the time on the road, not on the track, and by people who frankly don't even care or are capable of extracting the absolute maximum performance of an engine. Most of the buyers buy it for the thrills and that's where it excels
Rodrigo I drive my 718 GTS on the road like a bat out of hell and use every ounce of power, it’s geared as such!
@@tommy516 I salute you! keep having fun
A very well done review. Thank you!
wow....very nice review man! Well done
Great review!! Thanks
phenomenal review we need one from the gt4!
thanks dude.. great review
I actually like the fact that it's understated.
Great review!!
What a car, what a review. So incredible👌
Love your videos thanks.... Could you review a volester N love to see your opinion
I‘m just in love with this car and model. I already own it in my head ...
Amazing video! And superb car!
Fabulous review Rory
I bought a late 981 as I just didn’t fancy the 4 cylinder in the 718. It’s my first Porsche and I wanted it to be the 6 cylinder version and actually wanted to drive one with the soundtrack of that engine to see if it was how I always thought it would sound and feel like.
Rory, I follow AT regularly...and came across this video I must have missed. IMO, you are the preeminent automobile journalist of 2020. (Chris Harris is 2nd, BTW.) Your reviews are interesting, fun to watch, and you force me to watch videos of cars I have no real interest in --- like this Cayman. Please keep up the excellent work.
Thank you Dusty. Preeminent comment of 2020. 🙂 -Rory
Unfortunately he missed to inform about a lot of the advantages that the GTS has about the GT4 like ground-clearance and driving comfort as the GT4, from my own experience, scratches the road with its front bumper and its underbody diffuser fins all day long as soon as you leave your well known afternoon drive home road and go on a journey through the Alps or Norwegian Fjords, and there is where those cars drivers cars belong... same for suspension comfort, on long B road road trips is where the GTS shines and the GT4 starts to feel wrongly placed. Track day and afternoon drive along your home road is for GT4 by a long mile. Road trip and unknown B road territory is for the GTS. Just to give add. perspective here.....
GT4 owner here. I totally agree. GT4 = track weapon and sunday afternoon joy ride
I want this car. Nice review!
It's a joy to be listening to you, Rory. Hiring you was the best decision Autotrader has made.
Great car, and lovely backdrop!! They "heart of a donkey" was a good analogy :)
Great video!
Brilliant review
really cool review
Damn Rory makes me love every single car he reviews
I’m a simple guy. I see a new video with Rory Reid released, I hit 👍 first and then watch it. Well done AutoTrader
That’s the correct protocol. -Rory
Great review and video, hey, your jacket stiching on your right arm is coming apart.
Great review!
Show de bola!!! Porsche raiz novamente, cambio manual, 6 cilindros e muita diversão!!!!
Love the Tag F1 too!
Great review I’ve driven the 718 and 718s 4 pots great cars , but you can’t beat the howl of a flat 6 , hopefully I can get a drive in one of these I bet they are a hoot to drive :-)
Excellent review from a very happy 981 Cayman S owner. 😎
very well done - intelligent and articulate - very good production values
Great review
This car is amazing. My second favorite Porsche after the 911R
Good one mate 👍
Delivered effortlessly as always. Simply brilliant.
It's 6 Cylinders!!
Rory Reid is a legend! Fact! End of story!
Thanks Manvir - Rory
@@AutoTraderTV Not even Rory, just telling it like it is!
I agree
Very underrated drone shots. Your cameraman is a killer!
This is the real 911 with the engine in the right place and the right gear box. They just called it a 718 to not upset the old 911 fanatics.
Nice review
Really like this presenter, great job!
Great review and great car
This guys reviews rock
top notch production
Really nice review! Just wondering which red colour has the car? ...standard, lava or carmin red?
Just stumbled upon this video because I was looking up the car and I have to say, you are a great presenter. I really enjoyed watching this video.
Edit: Alright, alright, I just looked you up and you are one of the presenters of new Top Gear, that makes sense :D. Never watched it after Clarkson left, maybe I ought to give it a chance!
I left Top Gear a long time ago. Thanks 😀
Is the base model 718 cayman good? I’m just wondering bc the gts 4.0 is amazing
Finally someone pronounces Porsche accurately 🙏
Yes rorry more vids like this mate
K. -Rory
Lovely film Rory.
Nothing is better than Porsche
I was one of those poor souls that bought the 2019 four banger. It was my first Porsche purchase and I knew I had made a mistake two weeks after I owned it. I spent the money for an after- market exhaust and that helped the soundtrack, but I never did like the 4 cylinder engine. The car was quick and had plenty of power but I didn't like the very noticeable turbo lag that occurred until you reached 3K rpm's. I'm anxious to drive this newer version with the flat 6 as I have a hunch it's going to compensate for my woe's with its predecessor.
I was fortunate to pick up a very low mileage CPO 2019 718 GTS for a big discount thanks to guys like you. The NA6 prob will sound a little better, but the T4 motor is way more tune-able and and will remain faster.
Allan Miles did you not test drive it? I took one out and thought it sounded like a Scoob with a bag of spanners in the back. GTS 4.0 ordered for delivery October, just can’t decide the colour.
@@mister_ray LOL
God I love this host. He's so engaging to watch and listen to.
Will PDk transmission be available for this Cayman GTS?
As the Founder of the International Engine of the Year Awards how lovely to hear somebody saying the engine is the heart and soul of a car, this one not least. Sadly so many people now don’t apparently even know what 4 litre means or 2.5. They talk in terms of PS as if cars are merely iPhones. What petrolhead doesn’t know litres and torque. Oh PS! Tony Robinson
Okay so I put down a deposit for one of these two days after it was announced 16th Jan 2020...since then I've been watching every single vid review that came out in both german and english. Yet none made me feel as good about my purchase as this one. Thank you sir
Like a proper Top Gear review!
Looking forward to the PDK version....
We miss watching you on top gear
Nice Porsche 👍
Definitely an improvement over the standard 718, but is it worth the upgrade over a 981? Stupid question I suppose- this thing is twice the price and won't depreciate like the 4-pots. Not sure I'd replace my 981S with this even if I had the money though (which I don't).
Either way, definitely good to see a proper engine in a vaguely normal Cayman again.
Hi guys i need some recommendation which is much more worthy to buy?
Gts 4.0 cayman or 911 carrera s 991.2 ?
RORY KEEP İT UP PERFECTT
I don't need to pose with a car. I need to drive a car.
AND a moment when you meet someone who understands how special this car is, is more precious than a moment when someone looks at your car because he thinks it's expensive.
I own a 2018 718 GTS and I want one!!!
I will agree with you wholeheartedly Rory. In the Cayman GTS, they have one of the best Porsches i can actually afford. Well done, Porsche! Well done!
Considering this car can be ordered with a manual gearbox, I would buy it. I miss having a manual car at times. My new car feels so robotic by nature and the computers are something I need to get used too. Then when I am used to the computer interference I will wonder why I wanted more analog cars in the first place. LOL
The wing on the gt4 really adds something visually to the Cayman..
Beautiful. Winner
