I take heart to what Mischa says.

Road use will be a very uncomfortable experience with it bouncing around.

This is all related to what you are used to. People coming from 7.2 GT cars will think it’s a Cadillac. I’ve also seen enough videos of reviewers saying it’s absolutely acceptable to daily.

On normal road it will be fine.
The bouncy comments are in relation to more broken surfaces or those with a lot of quick succession undulations that don’t quite the car enough time to settle.

would this be similar with any RS model? Or something only in the gt4rs due to the Macpherson suspension?

Primarily due to Cayman MacPherson based rear and ability to keep the rear wheels in precise location with multiple forces being applied.
911 multi-link rear and other manufacturer cars with double wishbone setups better isolate damping forces from wheel movement location.

A better coilover package with stiffer construction and also with the ability to more granularly control compression and rebound aids the Cayman greatly… and does mitigate a lot of the issue… not completely… especially when coming to put all the power down (911 rear end traction always wins here)… but vast improvement.

BTW this is all relative… the 4RS is awesome.

Passed this today. Looked like a WP with the titanium exhaust tips. One lucky owner has one incoming!

I actually think the most of those YT reviewers are very carefully tap dancing around the truth. I doubt this car is "daily drivable..." its going to be STIFF AF! still an RS product.
but that being said, on a track, it will be magic. I like Doug Demuro's review on the road. He seems pretty honest about it saying, "it beats you up!" Overall, I am hoping KW or other manufactures come out with more compliant suspension for the 4RS. Time will tell. till then, nothing to do but enjoy.
