Guys,

This is so Very-very close to my GT4 only mine is in Racing Yellow.

Nice video and to me great coverage of the GT4.

The 911 continues to grow in size, weight, complexity, comfort, and makes a great grand tourer, but the Cayman was always a better sports car.

Certainly better than any turbo 911.
The 911 GT cars are a different story.

I think that depends...

Watch this...

Chassis wise and at limit handling seems to favor the 718 over the 911 chassis

I just traded my '18' GT3 for a '22' GT4. Should be here in October. For doing what I do now, driving in the Smokies, it is a much better car.

Hey, I know that guy. .

I have owned a 2018 GT3 6 speed and a 2018 GT3 PDK prior to my Spyder and I like the Spyder better. As I mentioned in the video, it takes a set faster, it doesn't require you to slide the rear end on corner entry and still grips fairly well coming out of a corner (yes, the 911 with the motor in the back does put down power better on corner exit). I do find that the 718 chassis is easier to gather up when you slide it as well, the 911 feels like it has a long pendulum, where the 718 is more tidy.

The GT3 was really fun, but I'm having at least as much or more fun in the Spyder on the street.
