I totally agree the tire makes a HUGE difference... but wondering if that can make up for 9 seconds a lap in speed.

Whoopsy

And if one must, a 991 GT3RS is a good comparison also. MSRP wise it's more inline with the 991 GT3. But of course one can also compare an RS with an RS.

108 dB inside with windows up…gonna need ear plugs for sure.

this was a horrible review...I had to turn it off....this guy needs a better mic setup. I get that the 4RS is loud inside but the other reviewers had the same issue and you could hear them much better....

raymort

Yep. But this is the first review I’ve seen with a sound meter you could see.

People say it’s loud, but it’s another thing to see the dBs.

KLCC 88

yeah....it'll be loud forsure!....

I predict a fair amount of buyers won't tolerate that level and ditch the cars, it is the main reason it is not on my radar as I detest loud noise.

I think it should be tolerable...I mean you are not going to be revving it up to 7-9k all the time if you're just driving it. Similar to EV cars like the Taycan. I had one for a weekend and had so much fun launch it until i started to get sick...LOL....but i'm sure if I had one I wouldn't be launching it at every lights ....

Looks like causing around, it's about 85-88db. Does anybody know for comparison sake what the GT4 and Spyder levels are causing around town and what they are at full/open throttle?

I believe AP did say it's like a hornet's nest inside the car. Guess he wasn't lying.

I did not know a toilet flushing was borderline green/yellow....LOL

raymort

Those must be the power toilets we had at the gym in grade school. The 1 gal jobbers sure don't make that level of noise.

jmartpr

It also depends what are you flushing......

When comparing the race cars, the intake sound of the new car (2022 982/718 GT4RS) with the new engine cover integrated into the plenum that comes from the quarter window is definitely about 10 - 15% louder than the previous generation car (2020 982/718 GT4 Clubsport) with the airbox in the rear hatch, most likely due to proximity of the throttle body to the driver's ear. HOWEVER...that car spun to 8000 RPM and this one goes to 11...i mean...8800 RPM which translates into a substantial increase in engine noise onboard!

See attached...and yes...i changed underwear after!

Given these decibel levels, is anyone else getting the Bose? I'm starting to wonder about that option now. Or, maybe you have to have it if you want to hear music at all.
