Andreas Preuninger, "Mr. GT3", implies in this video that there will probably be PDK-equipped Cayman GT4.

GT4 sounds more sinister than my C2S ;(

Beautiful car will be interesting to see the reviews.........

Hooooo baby!!!!

Great video interview, thank you for posting this.

It does my heart good to see that Porsche still "gets it"... understanding that the visceral feel of driving is so important to many of us. That last tenth he talks about is always great, but there's to a point there is so much more to enjoying a great car than a few fractions of a second. Or hp numbers... "385-ish"

Cheers!

I see Porsche is still shoving the alcantara crap down our throats! Hopefully, unlike the GT3, they will offer a delete alcantara option.

I like the rest of the car, though.

I find this car extremely compelling. I began reading this forum to learn about 991's so that I could make an educated future purchase decision but this car will certainly change my focus a bit. I'm an Audi fanboy without a doubt but have having no need for my 4 door S4 I expect to leave the brand with my next purchase. This car might be perfect.

Do you guys suppose the GT4 will be sticker + pricing for a bit or would these things likely drop with normal dealer pricing?

It always cracks me up how P carefully doles out the hp, keeping it just below the C2S. I do think it is interesting 6 speed.....instead of 7?
