I waited almost 9 months for my 2022 GTS 4.0 (it started life as a 2021 but chip delays pushed it into the 2022 model year) and I just took delivery 2.5 weeks ago. This is a nice build. Someone got a great car to enjoy in the new year.
@@melaniefeltsfagan1227 It is certainly everything that I was looking for when I ordered the car. This car is nimble and quick, especially in the twisties. But its been put away for the winter to avoid the snow and salt. Spring will be fun. Until then...on to ski season.
The distortion of the thumbnail looks great. Shorter and taller , less flattened than the actual cars. Agree with comments about the wheels . I have a 2009 Boxster and still live that shape.
What a beautiful car and with that manual. this will be a future classic for sure. Thanks for sharing. I am pretty sure you will have not problems selling this beauty.
Having left Porsche for almost twenty years (went to Ferrari), this is the first relevant Porsche I would consider coming back to. The proper proportions, adequate power, and well balanced. And most importantly MANUAL.
Neither is limited or exclusive, Porshce also sells the GT4 to anyone with enough money. Both have waiting lists though. Even the GT4RS isn't limited by Porsce, just the demand is a lot bigger than supply.
It lots its light nimble look. 20" wheels ect. Are no different than adding 22" on a cutlass. De-evolved like wheel vendor at SEMA. From a car to a static model.
You did A good job not being u-tuber or a reporter. The purpose was to sell it? . Do not be afraid to announce the price, some one would ask you is it available?. I use to sell AMC, Jeep ... To XLR. Now I am selling Cargo, utility, horse Trailer , I advertise price ,announce price and ask just let me know when you like to own it. Next question may I make a copy of your DL. Good luck.
I love the beautiful line, But I don't like where they put the front logo, I would it place it on the grill and not in the front center, I'll leave it in one side. And I would take off the logos from the wheels so It doesn't replicate the Ferraris Wheels logos. Of course my taste.
Beauty! I just don’t like those clear taillights Porsche offers, the red looks classic, classy and much better The clear look like ugly Japanese aftermarket ricer boy tail lights, it cheapens the rear end look of the car.
to be honest I actually think that depends a lot on the color of the actual car. There are some colors that look much better with the red tail lights and others that look good with the clear ones.
This is a really good looking car . But to be honest , it is going to have some stiff competition from the Lotus Emira. It was designed to take on the Cayman & from all the write ups it may well even be better. I don’t know which one I’d choose but It would be a nice problem to have. 🇬🇧👍
I knew you were Dutch as soon as I saw your name and then as soon as I began to hear you speak and further confirmed after timestamp 3:23 when you said "larger *as* the 981 models." It's actually "than" 😜
Unfortunately this car will be seen just as a pathetic way from porsche to fix what was a, very predictable, disaster called “tractor sounding 4 cylinders gts”. Not talking about the price, too close to a Gt4.
That's because it's 95% of GT4 - same engine, same transmission, same exhaust, but with more sound isolation and better options available (entry&drive, adaptive cruise, etc.). It's not second to GT4, it's a more dailyable alternative.
????????????????? 4 litre? An ICE car? You must be mad to buy this. Any BEV will be better in 2022, especially the Tesla's and the Chinese cars that come to Europe. Volkswagen should have created this car with an electric power train and it would have sold like crazy. Herr doktor Wolfgang Porsche (now 78 years of age) must be an extremely conservative and out-of-touch person.
Lol you're the one out of touch. I like Tesla, but they aren't catering to the motorsports community. Last I checked, they don't have a LeMans or Formula car. Also, people younger than you are conservative (it's the new trend among educated and intelligent young adults). I'm a conservative medical doctor in my late 20s. There are plenty of alternatives to electric powertrains that are currently in the works. Porsche is working on a net zero carbon-capture solution that would actually end up being more environmentally friendly than most EVs, and could utilize infrastructure that already exists. If the cayman platform went full electric then people like me who actually buy and run these cars on the track would not buy it, because of the weight and practicality of the design. It would go through brake pads before the end of the day. Handling would suffer, and the battery efficiency would be significantly reduced as the car heats up. EVs are great boulevard cruisers or stoplight drag racing cars, but there's a reason that the GT3 is faster on the nurburgring than even the craziest Tesla. Respect to Tesla, and respect to the Taycan, but Porsche knows what people (i.e. buyers) want from their performance cars. No one is buying a Taycan or a Cayenne to run it at Daytona or VIR.

Great to see a GTS without black wheels!
Agreed, the Turbo rims show on this sample are a $2500 upgrade but really make it stand out.
Agreed. A fan of turbo wheels here!
Black wheels are only for people who are too lazy for cleaning 🧼 or they don’t have the money for it. 😊
@@desnekke7073 yeah money is surely an issue for whoever buys a 100k car bud.

Congrats on yours
Hey, exactly the same for me. Mine is due this April. Been waiting about 7-8 months. Excited it's on it's way.
How is sound insulation in it? Is it too noisy?
Do you like it? I love mine ❤️❤️❤️

Is it weird to watch this video at least once a week while I await my GTS build to start in Zuffenhausen?😂

Can’t wait to receive mine next week !
What a beautiful car and with that manual. this will be a future classic for sure. Thanks for sharing. I am pretty sure you will have not problems selling this beauty.
I love the naturally aspirated 4.0 engine and the manual transmission. I always enjoy your videos. Happy Holidays Alexander!
Thank you Terrence, happy holidays to you too
Having left Porsche for almost twenty years (went to Ferrari), this is the first relevant Porsche I would consider coming back to. The proper proportions, adequate power, and well balanced. And most importantly MANUAL.
Amazing car. Fantastic that Porsche keeps the manual available.
Gotta have something to differentiate from the C8.
I have a 2015 boxster gts, with the same wheels. It came with black wheels and i purchased the turbo wheels afterwards. Great car!
best looking of all Porsches
Very nice build. I love the carbon fiber on the steering wheel.
Gts is the perfect automobile, 4.0 manual naturally aspirated. Mid engine masterpiece. IMO more fun than a 911 🤭
Great spec. Professionally done video!!!
What a beauty! Love the agate grey. Had a Panamera that color.
Wow!!!! Such a gorgeous spec... So clean looking
I agree
Awesome spec! I test drove one a few months back… This car is no joke!
They are a lot of fun :)
Beautiful car!
I like the color, just perfect!
LOVE IT. GREAT COLOR !
Stunning
That is a gorgeous vehicle.
Oh yes :)
Beautiful I agree w/o black wheels
Looks like you guys swapped out the front turn signal to clear. Usually they come with orange for the US.
You can never say the same words enough in a short video.
Gorgeous
Manual. ❤️
Beautiful set up. Happy Holidays Alex.
Happy Holidays Alan! Thank you
Beautiful
Very nice car, but the GTS 4.0 is not a limited edition, Porsche will sell them to anyone with enough money. It's the GT4 that is exclusive.

Nice new GTS 4.0
Thx.
Thank you Dominique
Such a beautiful car!
I love my 2021 Cayman GTS 4.0, but it would be great if you decided never again to say, "very unique." :)
Beautiful car. I heard the 2022's were next to impossible to get. Thx for sharing.
Very rare opportunity this car
Could you record your videos in 4k60FPS ? Thanks.
Dear Christian, I have tried it but the file size and therefor upload time takes way too much time
What's the invoice price on that beauty?
Did this come from factory with white side markers? Thought US delivered builds have the amber/orange ones
They were replaced by these clear ones as an accessory
@@AlexanderdePooter. Oh good I love the amber colored ones much better. Wish they had red for the rear tail lights too.
American youth say "I can't wait to steal one".
Oh shit that pretty
awesome
I have owned 5 turbos. I would get another one before this. :)
Fantastic.
I agree :)
Can you request/custom to delete the parking sensors? I know in european configuration it is an option.
Dear Trigganometry, not available to delete in the USA
It lots its light nimble look. 20" wheels ect. Are no different than adding 22" on a cutlass. De-evolved like wheel vendor at SEMA. From a car to a static model.
Just got a nice yellow one. Sold it to an enthusiast in The Baltic States for $525,000.
Absolutely beautiful. Better looking than the Boxster, but I prefer the ability to have a top down in most weather.
I think it subjective as to whether the Boxster is or isn't more attractive

Deliver it directly to DeMan Motorsport and I'll pick it up when it's done. :-)
She was sold the day after posting the video :)
Last gen rear lights look odd as does the rest of the back end just like all the previous iterations of the Caymen.Cheesy spoiler doesn’t help.
Excellent; gimme just 27 months.
Wow I’m shocked to see the interior looks very 1st gen 8six
I am very interested.
The car sold the morning after posting the UA-cam video

Porsche has never placed their badge on the “grill”. It goes on the hood.
👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️🤗🤗🤗

Nice but that maintenance…..
Same shxx in different 📦 packages.. Porsche, Mercedes, Ford… Kia. It’s all about marketing.

rather small engine, only 400hp…that makes this baby slow as well
Coping I see. This is far far more enjoyable and tasteful than your appliance.
beurk
It’s still just a Boxter 🙄
“Im a Porsche certified sales professional at Porsche”. I dont want to be an a$$, But You know you stated exactly nothing, right?
Why does it take Porsche more than 10 years to make their cars look good ? Boxter / cayman / panamera-
All dog ugly on launch .
