    • @Sam-K
      @Sam-K 8 років тому +33

      Yes, it just looks... Just... "Sassy"...!
      But 911 is more of a 'driver's car', a SERIOUS one at that and I respect that... And you should too, mate...!

    • @3rdeddie
      @3rdeddie 7 років тому +103

      the cayman is a better design. Mid-engine is just inherently superior to the 911's rear engine. The only reason this isn't the "best" Porsche is because the 911 is their marquee. If they put new 911 GT3 in a mid-engine cayman platform that would be a way better car than any current 911...it's all done in the name of profitability and brand.

    • @sdemosi
      @sdemosi 7 років тому +16

      El Salvador agree and the top gear guys concluded that the Cayman was probably better than the 911 if only Porsche stopped restraining it so the 911 would be the flagship. The GT4 answers that question by being the less restrained Cayman that has car enthusiasts raving about its handling and performance.

    • @jW-kr5xn
      @jW-kr5xn 6 років тому +4

      The cayman's design looks great but I don't like the top of the car being too round, I love boxster's design more, it would be great if there was a boxster GT4

    • @alessiodinan436

  • @chrisray4748
    @chrisray4748 5 років тому +9

    I love the fact that unlike a lot of car manufacturers, Porsche focuses on weight as much as they do a big engine. So many automakers (especially American) get a 2 ton car and slap a massive V8 or V10 in it and call it a day. But lighter cars are 10x more fun, even if they are slower.

  • @greenepanda

    What I like about Mr Demuro is that he is completely car review first. Not interested in "cool" music, doesn't wear yeezy, and in most cases gives a cut and dry opinion of the vehicles he is reviewing. The man stands (physically) BEHIND ever vehicle presented whether he likes it or not. Respect to the builder. The guy just dwarfs any other car blogger by far. The clear difference between wealth and riches.. I don't expect many to understand this rationale although it might be why he has the following that he has without them even knowing it.. if I had to sum up his legacy in one word I would describe my Demuro memories as wholesome. And you don't get that much in the automotive industry. Keep on trucking Sir D!!

    • @hellobooom
      @hellobooom 6 років тому

      Bob Nickson thermal expansion during the factory testing is not an issue, that is why. running on the road requires break in because of higher wear from higher temperatures.

      hellobooom , why would the temperatures be higher on the road? I don't know about the factory test he is talking about but if it's not being driven on a road or track (I.e. Rolling road test bed), I'd actually think the temps would be higher.
      I do think break in could be a myth in some cases and not others. Metallurgy is so variable. maybe in some cases it behooves you to drive the car like it's stolen from the 1st mile where and others you should baby it. But I want to see data on this.

    I agree with Doug on the Cayman GT cars. I am a long time 911 owner and have a 991.1. I absolutely love my car but will say after driving a Cayman GTS, left a smile on my face and reminded me of the 911's of old. I would imagine that the GT4 would give even a better feeling once driven. IMO, the only other which would rival the GT4 are the 911 R, GT3 or GT3 RS!

  • @Shahzad-Khan
    @Shahzad-Khan 8 років тому +1

    I absolutely love what Porshe is doing right now. They don't care about 0-60 times, fancy dual clutch gearboxes, and better specs on paper. They just allowed the option of a manual on the 911, and it sold out instantly. The new 911R is manual, no fancy computers and sound proofing. You hear every bang and clank, like in an old car.

      Except the Corvette is actually a viable contender that goes head to head with cars that cost 10s of thousands more. And the GT is legendary in the field of racing. And the Viper TA fought McLarens and 918s on nurburgring. Heck, the Focus RS is a reasonably quick track car for under 50 grand. If you think America only has the hellcats and Camaros, then I think some horizon broadening is in order.

      The regular vette can't keep up with this and the guy at NJMP with a c7z would overheat after 5 minutes on track. Focus RS wouldn't touch it. The ACR and the GT are another story though.

      I'm a fan of both, PDK & 6M. My 15 Golf R has 6M and just went through my 1st clutch. $3k not fun. My Audi A4 S line was awesome & super quick. Loved the dual clutch and speed it could obtain and crisp shifts. My next car will be PDK Caymen S, or if blessed the GT4. Toying with the idea of a ZL1 however it's a large car. I'm used to small cars such as my Golf R & A4.

    I've had five 911's including a 993 Turbo and a 997 GT3, but this is the best Porsche I've owned. What would I change? Shorter gearing (which everyone agrees), and in a perfect world I would pay extra for a 3.8 GT3 motor - the 997.2 engine would be perfect. The engine cover would need to be raised for the intake, so make it glass to see the motor!

    • @Basih
      @Basih 8 років тому +2

      Would argue that the GT4 is a better in this case. It dosen't have the problems of rear engine that the 911 does and it's center of gravity is much lower giving it a far better feel on the road.. If you only care about lap times and accelerations the 911R will probably win.
