I'd have to see this to believe it. Personally, I wouldn't bet that the GT4 is (much) faster than a properly set up 996 GT3 on Motons.

In the Netherlands they are writing "news" from forum conversations, lol.

It does really amaze me that pro drivers like him and race teams think the GT4 can hold its own with cars costing twice as much. Frankly, it's a lot more car than I bargained for - we all got way more value than we paid. Thanks, Andy - keep the hits coming!!!

Matthew don't sweat it. That was merely an opinion passed on (along with some other great info).

gt3rs 4.0 is definetely faster.
http://fastestlaps.com/tracks/nordschleife.html
See this link for the times both cars have in Nordschleife
997 gt3rs 4.0 is #28 with a time of 7:27:00
981 gt4 is #67 with a time of 7:42:00
http://fastestlaps.com/tracks/hockenheim_short.html
See this link for the times both cars have in Hockenheim Short
997 gt3rs 4.0 is #23 with a time of 1:09:50
981 gt4 is #41 with a time of 1:10:10
With a deficit of 115hp, i think gt4 is quite efficient.

Hahah interesting to see how the media has turned your post in "BREAKING NEWS" confirming a PDK GT4
Porsche Cayman GT4 to get PDK transmission; GT4 RS ruled out
So much for it will make more sense in 3 days.

He quickly starts pulling bus lengths on me, but I chant "GT4, GT4, GT4" and immediately I start to pull back. As I'm pulling away from him, I see a P1, 918, and LaFerrari up ahead. I see the fear in their eyes as I'm coming up fast. I hear all 3 of them downshift and the shriek of their engines as they start taking off. I'm still gaining on them.
The freeway ends and there is a long left hand 270 degree sweeper. I see them smile from my rearview mirror as they think they will take me into the long corner. Think again suckers. All 3 of them spin out trying to keep up with my GT4 as I laugh heartily. Luckily, they didn't damage their cars as they stopped short of the guardrails.
I call and leave a voice message for AP thanking him for building the best car on planet Earth. Long live the GT4. I then go for an ice cream cone to celebrate my victory. With sprinkles.

I seriously doubt that the current production GT4 can break 7:25's at the ring (991GT3 laptime) given the 90HP deficit and the lack of PDK.

My GT4 smoked my ZR1 on the street the other day. Had my buddy drive the ZR1 (very good driver) and at the third honk, we both take off.
