  • Welcome to the NUKE SPEC 2021 Porsche GT4 with a PDK gearbox! I got my first taste, and between myself and Tony we worked out if PDK was better than manual. Which would you order?

    I fully understand your point of view, it is faster, more usable, better fuel economy, bla bla bla... But honestly I'd still pick a manual 😂

  • @jonnyfontane3607
    @jonnyfontane3607 2 роки тому +5

    its easy, if you you use it as a daily go for the PDK (hard clutch), if you have a second car like i do for daily use, go for the manual GT4, its not about the faster PDK, its about fun. and this is what you have with the manual GT4

    Please keep showing as many cars as possible whenever you go to a dealership or showroom, like when you and STG when to drive the manual Aston Martin Vantage, or whenever there are nice cars around. Not all UA-camrs do it and it's frustrating when I see a nice car in the B-roll but I never see it mentioned after that

    I could agree with these guys more. Many of aren't rookies who are still have to prove to someone/ourselves that we know how to shift. If you want to go fast, get better fuel economy, get a full car per shift (Rohrer from Porsche has stated this as fact) your not less of a man/car enthusiast if you spec a DSG. Glad to here these guys weigh in on this, as I'm planning on a GT3 or a 911T soon and probably going for a DSG as it give my back less problems, so nice to know, their are others in the market who aren't afraid to share their opinions about it. I figure after driving my 1st 14 years with only stick shifts and many cars since, I have shifted enough, and having a few cars in the stable that are not sticks is fine.

    I think PDK GT4 may sell quite great, for people who wants a Porsche for track. For like Nurburgring, or someone who wants a less power than GT3 but want PDK, like me. Because for me, I like the sound that PDK makes on each up and downshift.

    Guys the big gripe with the manual GT4 is the gears are too long so is the gearing that much shorter in the PDK?
    I know PDK's got 7 gears but how does that translate on the road?
    Surprised you didn't make a feature of that..

  • @drewmorg.
    @drewmorg. 2 роки тому +1

    See the thing with PORSCHE PDK vs. a PORSCHE Manual is the fact that Porsche just happens to make the 2 best gearboxes in the business for their GT products. It's not like a C5 Corvette manual transmission or something. So I get where people are coming from when they want their manual Porsche box... BUT most Porsche owners probably go around with their manual in auto-blip mode anyway so I really don't see the point. Flip the paddles on the PDK if you want the engagement.

  • @iainb9277
    @iainb9277 2 роки тому +2

    Tony looked like a student going for his lunch with that backpack :-)
    Car looks stunning, not many spec'd without the sport chrono but no biggie, from what I can see that would be about £98k OTR, flipping it after a week for £113K.... good luck if you can, shame it was not delivered 2 months ago it would have got you a fatter margin as it seems that is all that is important here.

    Are the gt bucket seats worth the upcharge over the 18 way sport seats? I’m having a hard time justifying that extra cost.

    • @cartergarnon6299
      @cartergarnon6299 Рік тому

      No and on the resale market you’ll lose even more. I absolutely love the carbon buckets for their looks and for how actually comfortable they are given their purpose, and I especially love the ease of changing out the cushions. HOWEVER: They’re only appropriate if the only street driving you do is on your way to the track (which also means PDK since the goal is lap times) so they should only be spec’d in RS cars being used as such. They should never be spec’d in a 911 either because it defeats the entire purpose of the 911 setup by preventing access to the back seat/storage space. Outside of the 918, I would only reccomend them in a GT4 RS with Weissach. That’s for personal use and resale value. Buying a GT car second hand, as 99.9% of us do, get whatever gives you the gigglies, just don’t pay a penny more for buckets vs. a comp without them because the next person absolutely will not.

    I think pple forgot to mention how bad the new 4.0 sounds, there’s a reason why the used 981s Gt4 spyder gts are still going up while the 718 cooled. It requires a 6k exhaust sys to sound good while the 981 sounds pretty perfect right out of the box. Despite the flat six I dunno how Porsche managed to make it sound like a droney 4cyl. Otherwise I like every other aspect of my car… just the sound is a big letdown and had me looking at 981 for half the price
