- The Porsche 718 Cayman GT4's big brother is due for a November arrival, with the new 718 GT4 RS currently excelling during final testing on mountain roads as well as the tracks. Impressively demonstrating its dynamic potential, brand ambassador and development driver Jörg Bergmeister lapped the 20.832-kilometre Nürburgring-Nordschleife in a lightly disguised production car in
7:09.300 minutes, and the shorter 20.6 km in 7:04.511 minutes - that's 23.6 seconds faster than its little brother.

That intake sound is sublime...
Ahhh, the sounds of beautiful induction noises from naturally aspirated engines, nice.
There are now additional air intakes in the place of the rear side windows which must go through the cabin, pretty sure they enhance the sound by quite some margin!
Somebody noticed it revs to 9000rpm?😉😎👍
Is it me of its sounds exactly like the 991.2GT3? If they put that engine in the gt4, then just fell even more in love with the brand
@@einautofan6685 indeed😎
Finally proper gear ratios…and the Sound ♥️
It’s a PDK and from I remember the PDK has decent ratios. The manual was/is geared terribly.
@@RadDadisRad the Gearing of this one is much shorter than the GT4 PDK. The normal PDK in the GT4 is just a bit shorter than the manual. This one has 2nd gear just a tad bit more than 100kph, that's a huge difference to the Standard GT4 PDK.
@@RadDadisRad pdk gearing was almost identical to manual
proper gearing lmfao it's long af
Who would think that a little road-going Cayman could be so close to 7 minutes! Beyond excited for the full reveal of the GT4 RS, hope to see one in my garage next year and for many Nurburgring laps ;)
I guess with MR Kit Sub-7 possible!😉😎👍
Imagine seeing shmee in the comment section
Such a great car should even be made in disgusting british right hand drive 🤮🤮🤮🤮
Got my confirmed slot today!
Porsche should be more discriminating as to who should have the privilege of having one of these track monsters. Shmeeeeee has shown plenty of times in his past car history, that the Porsche’s (GT3, GT4 x 2) are not worthy enough to be in his garage, and are easily expendable. And yet he rather choose to have AMG’s 🤮 that are no where close in racing pedigree to the 70+ years that Porsche have been developing race cars for the road/track. AMG’s are overweight, but I guess that is what Timmy likes 😉
Now finally we see what the Cayman Chassis is able to do with plenty of power. 👍🏻
It. Is. AWESOME.
You not seen the 4.5l 🤷🏼♂️
@@rscholey85 It would be an interesting shootout between a Deman Motorsport-modded GT4 and the new GT4 RS. The RS would definitely have the aero advantage. Still, that provides an upgrade path for an owner if they later decide they're a good enough driver to handle an extra 80-100HP
Yeah, It can try to kill you at every high speed corner. The car looks very transversally unbalanced compared to GT3s or GT3RSs.
@@bisondacierr And you saw all that in the onboard video? Geez, Porsche better get you into the chassis development team quick. I'm sure the driver felt so mortally threatened to push the car to such a laptime.
The one I have been waiting for!! did not expect 9krpm Holy Moly!
Hi luke!, i hope to see you film one of these, have an amazing day.
Your 981 Spyder video inspired my to purchase one. This bad boy might not be as easy to buy though 😬
Literally said the same thing. Putting in a fight for an allocation
This could mean GT3 engine
I like all of your comment guys
That sound.. my god.
Something is resonating at the higher engine speeds. Sounds "tinny". Sharkwerkes should be able to rectify that. I would think it would be quicker but it probably does not have a 500 bhp powerplant. Even though... it out handles a 911 so I imagine the gear ratios aren't ideal. I'd still like it - especially a manual version.
That tingly metallic sounds is same as 991.1 GT3. They're probably using same engine for this one.
@@arapaimagold8088, no it is not the same sound.
The legends from Porsche back with another legendary car.
I wonder if test drivers ever get bored of their jobs. Like... they wake up in the morning and just stare at the ceiling for 10 minutes, thinking of excuses to avoid going to work. No. I don't think so, either.
Absolutely no way, they have to be chasing the adrenaline
@@sniper4162 after they have shitted 7 colours
Lol 😆 lol 😆 hilarious. That was classic.
I doubt it
Ikr? Lmao. The boredom! Of taking some hopped up thing like that, running around the ring? Drive the hell out of it hoping the tires don't blister? 😝
I wonder what the tax bracket those guys are in or if like the car, grand Cayman? (Shrugs) I got to give those guys a lot of credit. I lrarn a lot from them too.
I'm impressed by the mid-corner grip of the car and how early Jörg could get on the gas. The car picks up like it's a twin turbo, yet it is naturally aspirated. I saw a top speed of about 283kph in 7th which is impressive. Awesome!
it was really short on 286 ^^
The amount of time he was on full throttle, through all those corners, was amazing. What a car, what a driver.
277/8km/hr was the top speed.
@@jasonswift7098 specs says 315 so im not sure why it didnt reach even Close to that speed. Maybe this car was modified for acceleration..
@@berrafatale25yearsago87 Torque response more likely
Comparing the gear ratios of 718 GT4 RS:
1st gear: ?
2nd gear: ~108km/h
3rd gear: ~156km/hr
4th gear: ~195km/hr
5th gear: ~233km/hr
6th gear: ~275km/hr
Against the 718 GT4 (PDK)
1st gear: 73.1km/h
2nd gear: 124.7km/h
3rd gear: 172.8km/h
4th gear: 219.3km/h
5th gear: 264.4km/h
6th gear: 324.4km/h
That's almost 25% shorter gear ratio in 2nd gear! Also, it appears top speed is going to be achieved in 7th gear instead of 6th gear as we briefly see it hit 286km/hr in 7th
more like 15%
Because on non-rs 7th gear are extremely overdrive gear (0.6 coeff) for highway cruise to reduce wear and fuel consumption. 160km/h is on 2800 rpm.
gt4 doesn't reach 324 kph lmfao
Shortest geared RS Porsche ever built!
Revs to 9k and sounds glorious, must be the GT3 engine!!
If u look closely it’s 8500 rpm redline but could be 9k shift, they say it’s the 4 liter from the gt4 tuned to 500 plus hp.
@@davidh2809 Can you see the 3 red bars? 2:13
@@robt8042 knowing Porsche they will make it below 9k because gt3 has 9k.
@@davidh2809 all you have to do is look at the video. It’s so clear it revs to 9000 rpm.
Yes please
When I grow up I'm going to have a Porsche, I'll be back in a few years
See you in 50 years mate
An Electric one :)
I hope you get one and there is gas for you to drive it somewhere away from a city. Good luck.
I am grown up and I'm going to have one too 😊
@@oliverwilson999 Ouch, but accurate here at the same time: 54 when I got the 1st one, some 38 years after I drove a 924.
Corvette C8 & Porsche GT4 RS are really giving the exotics and hypercars something to think about. The gap keeps on closing. 😁
agreed for the track, the gt4 rs is closing the gap on supercars (but it will be close to supercar money at 150ish), but on the street, not so much... for example, having driven both a c8 and an f8, the former is no where near the f8 in terms of speed, acceleration, and handling, as well it should be being over 200K more than a c8. The 0-60 test numbers for the c8 are a bit of a red herring as it doesn't run those numbers in real life - its more new m4 sports car fast (3.5ish territory) than porsche turbo supercar fast (sub 3 territory). still a great relatively fast sports car with great value (just gotta fix the design from the 3/4 to the back!)
not the corvette.
@@js002003 Now, there is the new C8 Z06...
Also, they're cars you wouldn't mind throwing over the curb as much as a $3m Koenigsegg...
@@christophebuisson7536 Z06 ftw!
That noise from 8-9 is so special. The noise form 7-8 on my 718 GT4 feels special already, I can't imagine what that extra 1000rpm sounds like in the car
Check 10.000 rpm tuned Hondas
@@llavero5 great comparison!
@@llavero5I do love those high revving B series from Spoon, but a flat 6 at 9k rpm sounds 20x better
@@Stealth_Rider91 Well, flat or not, bigger sounds better
_"If it's the last hurrah of the internal combustion engine, might as well go all the way"_ - Porsche Engineers (probably)
The last 500 rpm man, im shivering - that sounds sooooo good
Woah... 2nd gear tops out around 108km/h and a ~9k RPM redline? That's a significantly shorter gear ratio! Porsche's not holding back anymore 🔥
The car can do more than that, trust me, more to come on Nurburgring lap times, you just have to wait for the production version to come out, maybe manthey racing is going to make it even more crazier.
1:19 nearly lost it under braking for Aremberg! What an incredible lap, the commitment was definitely there!!
I wouldn't say nearly lost it, but some traction was definitely lost
Totally under control to my eyes.
It looks like two problems. The first seems to be that he car didn't apply the brakes fully (faulty ABS system?). The second that the car really didn't want to turn in. You can see the driver rocking the car into many of the corners (by lifting off and transferring weigh forward) to get it through the lap.
This is a certified Porsche classic.
I have always said the Cayman was a great platform. It has a natural balance you can feel when driving.
The engine sound is just heavenly
Gotta love that GT3 engine!!
OMG.....that last few revs!!! SO GOOD!
Absolutely mental. I was cornering on my couch in those high speed sections
The last 500 rpm it sounds like its about to disintegrate. But in a good way lol
For real I never heard a engine sound like this like its screaming its lungs out
Porsche never fails to impress.
this has to be top 5 best nurburgring lap of all time. the sound is ridiculous. lotso love from South Africa
9k rpm, 7 min ring time, 7 speed pdk, proper weapon. Should have built the rs years ago. Perfect for all the car collectors to hide away in a temperature controlled garage where the people that would use them can't see them.
less than 9k
There should be a 2 point system to buy into one; minimum lap time in a Porsche experience car and points for how many miles you have on an existing car. Then you get to own one, but on a PCP scheme that locks you in for 2 years.
Love it, and engine screaming is orgasmic. Can't wait to see it on the road. Hopefully in my garage for my 40 birthday 2 years later 🙏🏻😇
Get it ?
Big respect for quality driving by Bergmeister. Mesmerized by how little he is not in full throttle.
wow that sound from 8000-9000 rpm is music to my ears
Finally a driver that actually uses the car to its full potential. Perfect driving.
Little far to the limit , just for marketing , gt4 rs can do more than this , cause she has good balance than gt3 rs
Those gear shifts are lightning fast!
When the GT4RS passed the gantry at the back straight, it was going at 230kph. It's crazy to think the 919 evo at that point was nearly doing that... in mph.
Amazing thing about the Cayman is that the engine is right behind you, so it’s even better sounding.
And other performance benefits like better grip, etc.
Balance, yes, not grip (aero aids withstanding) per se. Launch off corners and stability under braking is still the 911’s forte. That’s a grip advantage.
I dont like the sound of the GT4RS.
@@testaccount2343 well that’s your problem.
The definition of a pocket rocket. The baby of the RS family.
Sounds absolutely amazing what a car
Few seconds in… the induction sound is out of this world.
The best car on the market.
Oh my God! What a nice and fast little Porsche!😉 That Sound is amazing!😎👍
9000rpm?😱😊😎
Gotta love that GT3 power plant!
This is perfection. It even has the pitch of a Lamborghini Aventador LP750-4 SV. Love it!
Thank you Porsche for your artworks on wheels...
Endlich !!! Genau so muss das sein !!! 9000 Umdrehungen Sauger power 🥰🥰
This thing can definitely do sub 7 given better conditions.
What better condition are you talking about?! That track was dessert dry and the car and driver at their limits!
Finally we got the monster we’ve been dreaming of. Eats corners for breakfast lunch & dinner.
Those upshift sounds at 9k rpm are GLORIOUS. Vrrrrrrrrrrruu-VWUMM, Vrrrrrrrrrrrrrrruu-VWUMM !!
Well done Porsche!!!

New favorite musical instrument !

Has anyone noticed that every single video that is posted by Porsche is awesome?
My favourite part was when he held 3rd at Breidsheid but man the balls through Kesselchen/Mütkurve and Bellof S, pretty remarkable. I'm no expert but man that suspension seemed to be right at the limit of it's capabilities at a few points there 👍👌
7:04 for a car under 500 hp is no joke. I wonder if there will me the MR version to do sub 7 minutes
Awesome Flat-6 sound.
Wow it faster then the 911.2 GT3!
Impressive!
Faster than 991.2 too this did 7.04 by old standards
Not faster than 992, but it's pretty impressive
5:43 This guy is completely out of his mind
That engine sound is stunning!
Love that boxer sound.
@@gurujojo8992 the zylinders are moving against each other that it looks like they try to box each other, thats why the flat 6 from Porsche is called Boxer engine
@@janneshildebrandt1 I think it's better to say they "box" away from each other, so the crankshaft is like the torso and the pistons are like arms punching to either side of the body
Looks like they have tuned up the standard 718 GT4 engine to 9k for more power. Sounds great But doesn’t sound like the GT3 engine at 9…
Serious RS cayman ! Love it
it sounds even more wild than the GT3!
@@niko20111999 crazy eh! I did not see that coming! Very un-Porsche...
It has a different intake and exhaust manifold
@@derjaxxer Exactly. The GT4rs sound is mainly from the intake, not exhaust like the GT3.
This comment did NOT age well.. 👎👎
Amazing how little brake was applied throughout!!! Skill!!
So much fun to put the 919 Video side by side!
Driving with the sun screen down is what i like to see!
For some car companies, people claim they cheated and the lap time is wrong, they say the car is slower. But for Porsche, people claim they cheated and the lap time is wrong, they say the car is actually much more capable.
That sound is incredible. Hypnoticed 🎉🎉🎉
Incredible sound and RPM, great job Porsche! ❤🤩
Anyone noticed how fast the gear shift? For pure performance, PDK is the way to go. Stick shift may be more fun, but it cannot compete with PDK in speed.
What can I say I’m speechless.
Porsche is motor sport!!!
Thank you 😊
Now we need a 718 Spyder RS, that would be an amazing car with perfect sound!
Road-going Perfection ❤
Thats what I always say...People want that screaming 8-9k rpm N/A engines back like Honda's high reving VTEC Engines back in the 90s and early 2000s ...We dont wanna have some crappy turbo farting sounds. This Sound is insane!
WHAT AN ENGINE!
Sound nice, I love gt4 rs!
Did anybody else notice the drone when he exited the carosel at 4:17
Sweet sweet GT3 noises :)
Thats one brave boy, great drive
Yes! This car will have all that has been requested, and more! It would be amazing if there could be one for every buyer. 🙏🏻 Please!
Sounds really good! Especially that second when it hits 9000 RPM!
Sounds absolutely astonishing at 8k-9k rpm
Doesnt let the car dip below 7k rpms, this driver is a god.
Andy Preuninger unleashed on the cayman chassis. Finally.
Porsche did it again.
Great lap 👏🏻
The Cayman with the right engine. ❤️
I hope that it also addressed the apparent thermal issues with the current GT4MR that causes it to wilt a bit after a few laps at speed in the IMSA Michelin Pilot Challenge series. I look forward to seeing Porsche returning to the front with more teams in that venue.
Magnifica!!!!!! Brava Porsche!
I learned everything I’ve always done wrong in this video, unreal drive!
Mind-blowing driving
OMG 😱 what a noise 🤩🤘🏾
GT4 RS needs A Six Speed Manual option 😎 in my Opinion the only RS Car that needs a Manual
Dear lord!What a machine♥
Fantastic lap🔥🔥
That was fun!
baby king 😍🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Grasias porshe por este coche, es brutal el sonido y su velocidad,su paso por curva es una
locura.Saludos desde cuba.
I need this in my life. Worth every penny
Best and wildest Cayman! Gt4 rs awsome !!!!!!!!
Well that that's about as good as it gets! 9K redline and that sound!
The only car that will replace my 981 Cayman S. Wait for me GT4 RS! Thank you Porsche for making such a great car like this one.
Hmm, thought the end speed on the Döttinger Höhe would be higher ... But nice car !
It's my new dream car, perfect in every way. Wow.
That sound!
Playing at it.
Awesome car and a great lap.
Wow, tolle Runde.
Die Airbox hört sich gut an.
