Is the Porsche Cayman GT4 RS the ULTIMATE Porsche driver's car? Well, it’s time to find out!
You see, when you look at the stats on paper, it seems like the GT4 RS could easily be the best Porsche ever produced. Under the bonnet, you’ll find a 4-litre naturally-aspirated flat-six (no surprise there). However, unlike in the regular GT4, this is the same engine taken from the GT3, and as a result, it puts out 500hp & 450Nm of torque! What’s more, it also revs to a glorious 9,000RPM… ❤️
But of course, there’s still so much more to talk about! When it comes to the design, there are a number of changes over the regular Cayman & the GT4, from a carbon fibre bonnet & front splitter up top, to additional vents down the side and a massive carbon fibre at the back!
Once you step inside, there’s Alcantara found throughout, although the infotainment system still isn’t the best… But then again, when you’ve got 9000RPM, who cares about the stereo!
It costs from £108k, and the car we’ve got here costs £131k! But surely it’s got to be worth it, right?! You’ll have to stick with Mat to see for yourself!

This is the Ultimate. Also I like your new intro 👍

12:38 Mat bouncing of rev-limiter made my day!!! WHAT A MACHINE and WHAT a MOTORING JOURNALIST!!

That was Mat's biggest orgasm on this channel. I came as well

lmfao for real bro
Wow. This new format of reviews just went from level 100 to max level. It is just so awesome.
This is the same format as before. I don’t see what has changed?
Are you one of these people who cite things as being in excess of 100%?
@@mrc7478 Level isn’t percent😉
@@Prof.Dr.Diagnose that's not what I asked.
@@mrc7478 got it wrong. Sorry, my fault 🤦♂️
Best part of this review is not only the car itself, but how much you've enjoyed driving it. It just shows your appreciation of the incredible engineering behind it and we, as viewers, appreciate that :) IMHO, your best review yet. Cheers from Croatia!

Hands down the best review. Everyone else just did a track test and spent 5 mins saying how glory it is for the price when no one can get the car at MSRP.
carfection do good review after 1700 miles at this car
@@TMWagner21 Henry is a legend
@@TMWagner21 also car throttle
Here in Europe it’s illegal to sell a new car above MSRP so we don’t have that worry. The downside is that we actually can’t buy the car because our % of build allocations vs customer orders is very low (about 1 in 30 vs 1 in 8 in the US assuming Porsche’s usual RS pattern). This means that Americans will typically pay around 75% more for a GT4RS but have a 400% greater chance of getting one. Which is why California is overrun with GT model Porsches!
That's a monster. The launch is so aggressive! Most cars only launch at around 3.5k. Love this car.
Peak torque is really high in these, but that's the best part
czcams.com/video/DD3RpEWybII/video.html
Most cars are turbo.
@@joxepojoxepin2752 Turbo 911’s launch at more than 3.5k rpm.
@@307skylake7 yes. It also has 319.6kph top speeds.
That engine makes the best sound ever. Amazing.
imagine if it was straight piped, it'd be INSANE
Best sound ever in what category? 😂
It`s really really good, without a shadow of a doubt, but still prefer sound of Lexus LFA.
You haven't heard a lot of cars if this is the best sound ever...
@@DoctorStrange01 and you have...
Love the new video format guys, and glad that the 0-60 is back early in the video! Carwow Is really setting the boundaries to the automotive journalism. Keep growing🤟
What an awesome video! Love how you really pushed the car and did clutch kicks, drifts and actually drove it like it should
This is a proper sporty car! Can't wait to test it 👍👍
I don't think that you will get one to test it. You never had such a car in this category.
@@JaYoYa hahaha
@@JaYoYa i also love this car, JaYoYa. 👍
@@gordonnorris4202 even 911 GT1 1998 can do better.
@@JaYoYa that's funny, he had an m240i, i4 m50 and a boxter
1:35 is the launch
2:29 results
12:38 bouncing off the rev limiter 🤤

Goddamn that engine sound! Instant eargasm.

Something going on with matt's upper lip
@@rynotroskie7873 lol
Perfect car
The editing of this video was top notch. And Matt is still surprisingly funny. Loved it!
Mat thank you so much for this insane video that I've been waiting for 4 months
Matt is so lucky to get to drive all the latest cars!! So jealous
He does it so we dont have to do it😂
Hey Flower Boy.
Apply to carwow for his job and tell them you will do it cheaper.
@@disarchitected 🤣 right
That exhaust OMG
It's intake sound.
What a car!!! That engine sound!! Great review as ever, Mat!!👍
Easily my favorite porsche EVER, looks incredible, amazing engine sound, great handling, amazing gearbox, High rpms and definitely fast enough!
You've definitely not seen a lot of Porsches
My favorite Porsche is one that I could actually afford. Maybe, a last gen Cayman S??
Gt3 RS looks better
@@Sasori.OfTheRedSandI don't agree with that, also I find the 991 GT3 RS better looking than the 992 GT3 RS
The one to have.
Modern day's holy grail for all petrol heads
HUH. LESBIAN BOTS.
Naw. No manual. GT3 is better for that reason.
That limiter bounce and face was just perfection haha
Excellent video with excellent sound! Great work Mat
Thank you Mat! Always nice to see your reviews on cars. This Porsche is awesome)
1:33 God what an amazing sound!
I'm not a Porsche fan, but this one is definitely going on the wish list
If you aren't a Porsche fan you're not a car enthusiast lol
@@manelv.5351 hahahah so true. Literally the best brand hands down.
@@manelv.5351 The car world doesn't revolve around Porsches 🤦
@@peacemoyo8630 yes it does
It’s slow for a Porsche. The xdrive G80 M3 is quicker and faster for less money
Thanks Car Wow! You are a great reviewer. I enjoyed every minute of it. THanks again.
Best car from the past couple of years. Absolutely love this machine
What a review. Matt you are “the class act“.
The GT4 RS is only the co-star in this video :)
12:34 Matt just busted 😭😭😂😂 I don't blame him 😭😭😍🔥 Absolute machine
This is the best review you guys have done for ages - so much more pace and energy, but still fitting all the info in early
İ have been waiting for this video for long time , thank you Mat Watson
Best review I’ve seen of this car! Thank you for all those glorious engine sounds!
Maniac sound ... 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
It's sound much furious than V8 twin turbo 600+ hp cars
Hmm don’t know about that
I absolutely love that in-door intake. It actually sounds better inside than outside(near exhaust pipes)
V8 Twin-Turbo sounds terrible nowadays!
@@Has7DCT Turbos always sounds terrible compared to NA
@@Has7DCT mine sounds good. C63s
Thanks so much for the video!
Love that exhaust note and the induction sound
This car looks so damn good
everything gets a lot more expensive, gas prices skyrockets and then we get GT4 RS... what a great time to live :D
I'd say for these petrol high performance cars let them just go all out on how expensive can these be as long as they put appealing values like enjoyable and memorable driving experience however these manufacturers are doing that unique to their own styles
£500,000 is the max until i personally start complaining the price hike trend has went way too far
@SteveNL retail price is irrelevant..when you can see one available, it will be £300,000
I've never seen Matt so excited about a car! What a review!!
Epic car that! Also nice touch to add the ref counter in the video..love it!
I love these videos so much I think they are very interesting to see me and my dad watch it all the time
Hell yeah been waiting for this
love the new review format
Wow! These reviews are so much cooler with all the track driving!
Wow, amazing piece of engineering.
I love this brand, and I'm a BMW enthusiast...
Once again, nice video... thanks Matt

Your description and way of presenting about each car is just outclass. Too classy 👍❤😍😍
I could honestly listen to the sound of that glorious n/a engine all day every single day for the rest of my life!
Hats off to you Matt, that stat with the top speed in 2nd gear was mad!!🤯
I love😍😍 the new Cayman GT4 RS, what's an absolute beast. Such an incredible car. The design looks awesome with all the carbon fiber treatment, the rear wing from GT3. The overall stands of the car is pretty mean and aggressive 👍👍. Then thier is that 4 litter flat 6 engine Engine. It sounds absolutely Savage, one of the best sounding engines ever. This Cayman GT4 RS is great package. What a car 😁😁😁. Nice review 👍👍👍👍.
I like mr mat Watson's drifting with GT4 RS 😍👍.
GT4 RS look so cool. 👍
Sam
I absolutely love this car and would happily give up my beloved 981 GT4 for one at MSRP, but the dealer markup in the US on these is going to be crazy, unfortunately
Nobody doing it like Porsche these days simply lovely!
Hwo remembers help me carwow?
Insane engineering with that engine and gearbox
Your review of this car is the best of all of them that were released today for press day. You smash top gear.

Love the new review format
12:52 the greatest car review transition ever
Incredible sounding engine
After all the reviews I am seeing... 180k on the used market I predicted initially is not enough I am assuming these will show up in the 230-260k range in the UK... Wish above sticker prices would stop in this world but it is what it is
czcams.com/video/nkO9F9GH-3A/video.html
Yep...FJB
well its around 500k well specd in denmark
Yeah I predict £300,000 in 2 years with 10miles on the clock.
Thanks Porsche for giving this beast to Matt and Rory, trinity of my favourites
The sounds from the engine and intake is breathtaking 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
What a stunning car. The scream to 9k is 🤤
What I really back about this pack is that you get both harness AND seatbelts. So when you're cruising to the track you can use the reguler seatbelts and when you're on it you can strap yourself into the chair... I actually like it.
Good video. Keep it up man..
This is a very good review and will help me to choose the correct car for racing at a track
I love the way carmakers like Bugatti, Porsche and Lamborghini places the engine in the middle of the car and it has a lot of advantages
This shows the superiority of the naturally aspirated engine (ideally coupled onto a manual transmission) located in the middle of the car, Cayman GT4 RS is the Porsche that evokes emotions!
No no no no.... Just forget this dumb "manual transmission mimimimi"!
There just isn't a "ideally coupled onto a manual transmission" thing with the Porsche 718 GT4 RS, because the PDK is the absolute perfect transmission for this already legendary race car for the road. It's the fastest shifting transmission on this planet and you can even shift it with the stick on the middle console, just like a sequential transmission. For a 2022 super sports car this is quite unique!
A manual transmission in this car would be totally irrelevant, because the GT4 RS would be way too fast for a manual transmission.
@@user-jf8gd3lv7q did someone never learn to work a clutch? Poor baby.
@@Davidzc0 well said, manual feels so much nicer when you know what you are doing
@@user-jf8gd3lv7q clearly somebody's never driven a manual. nobody cares about 0-60 times in the real world, its only there to sell cars, how often do you launch a car and see how fast you can get to 60mph?
@@poppajack5332 I'm German and I've learnt driving cars with a manual, dude! Don't Tell me about manual transmissions!
The sound of that engine is symphonic! I love it!
Drove a m2 the other day and it was incredible couldn't imagine how good this car is or the 911 gt3 rs which is my dream car
@Carwow never disappoints with the quality and Mat never disappoints to surprise me with a Random comparison 😂😂😂
So in love with the car🔥🥺😭😭
This could best review by Matt Watson. Love you mate
Absolute dream! Hope they can keep the handling characteristic in the next gen
Dont worry they will make it even better
@@reijhinru1474 yes.
Those bots made everything worse.
@@reijhinru1474 sure it will be faster, but an ev will never be as fun.
@@hoen2009 huh it’s going electric???
The exterior and interior of this Porsche Cayman GT4 RS looks so cool and insane
What a machine! Thank you for lovely review!
Ver nice editing and video format Matt, keep it up pls
Porsche just built the perfect sport car ❤ ... my kia rio is jealous 😥
Nope. Slow. The perfect sports car will always be the 911 turbo s
I’ll take my xdrive m3 over that gt4 anyday
@@roikiller762 wow... it's not like the GT4 RS is the little brother of the GT3 RS and GT2 RS, the mid-engine concept is better than the rear engine, of course Porsche wants it to stay smaller, but if you modify the GT4 RS it will be faster.. much faster :D
Wow amazing mat love you and your reviews as always 👍❤😍
Nice video Mat!😸
This GT4RS looks like baby GT2RS to me, especially in this color combination.
Porsche have really outdone themselves absolutely love this thing, if I had the money I would buy this instantly
It doesn’t even matter if you had the money..you have to be on Porsches special list which means you have to be buying at least 5 cars off them a year and trading it back in to them. I went to 2 local Porsche dealers to buy one and they just laughed and said no chance. Between the 2 dealers, they said they might possibly get 1 car.
Wow. Peak Porsche right there. Great review Mat.
Can tell that this thing SOUNDS incredible!!!
What the hell! That GT4RS is absolutely incredible. Easily this is my dream car and in my opinion, this is in the top 5 Best sounding Cars alongside the Murcielago SV, GT350R, LFA and Aston Martin DBS
Looks like an amazing car!!! But I think I would still chose a gt3 with a manual gearbox over this one. I just think manual is the best fun you can have in a car.
All these camera angles… just 👌🏽
Amazing sound!!
The Rolex GMT2 Master of cars...engineering perfection that costs a fortune at retail...and that no one gets at retail. Be prepared for a 2-3+ year wait...or be willing to pay an insane premium.
Master of cars GMT2 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🤡
Nice to see the crazy watch world price comparisons here! What would you say is the Daytona car equivalent?
I think I have a new goal to work for
WOW THAT GT4 RS SOUNDS AMAZINGGGGGG ~~~ THAT ENGINE SCREAMS AND IT'S FLAT OUT MARVELOUS TO LISTEN TO. That GT4 RS puts down that power very well for RWD car, as expected from Porche's amazing German engineering team.
What a sound! AMAZING!!!
Another great rival for 1.6L Miata on track. Keep it up Porsche!
Stage 2 f82 93 octane bone stock in a straight line. That's very impressive. Bet the handling is sublime. I want one.
czcams.com/video/nkO9F9GH-3A/video.html
One word, awesome.!!
What a machine. How I wish I had your job Matt 😎
This car might not look like a supercar but it smokes even an Huracan STO, what a beast.
Because it isn’t a supercar
We going to miss all this sweet sounds when we all go electric 😭
Average person rarely encounters this sounds on the street. What they hear though are the masses of economy boxes idling and accelerating. So getting them silent and locally clean is a benefit for everyone
@@romansenger2322 nahh
@@romansenger2322 actually ev’s have a more negative effect on carbon footprint so 🙄
Im paying my petrol tax…fuck that Tesla shiiit
@Roman Senger Depends on where you live. I live not far from the race track. We see a lot of performance cars.
Those are the best looking stock wheels I have ever seen. Im in love.
I think the best engine sound I heard lately! WOW!
