2023 | Porsche 718 Cayman GT4 RS

Thanks to its neutral handling dynamics and everyday usability, the Porsche Cayman has long been an enthusiast favorite. Although Porsche has offered more track-focused variants of the mid-engine car, performance was always tempered to keep it below that of the brand’s flagship 911. Even when the GT4 went on sale in 2015, it quickly took the spot as many people’s favorite Porsche, but the brand still refused to fit it with a proper GT-division engine, instead using a detuned Carrera S 3.8-liter flat-6. Finally, after nearly 15 years of Cayman production, in 2021, Porsche gave it the RS treatment. The GT4 RS uses a variant of the GT3’s 4.0-liter flat-6 that revs to 9,000 RPM and is paired with an aero package that increases downforce by 25% and makes it an absolute track weapon.

This 2022 Porsche Cayman GT4 RS Weissach is an original German market car finished in Black over a black leather and Race-Tex interior. Showing just 2,582 km at the time of cataloging, this car is perfectly set up for time on track and VAT is deductible. The black paint on this car is complemented by small red GT4 RS graphics on the lower corner of the doors, which perfectly picks up the red of the brake calipers. In front of those calipers sits a set of 20-inch forged aluminum wheels finished in Satin Neodyme (a beautiful bronze/gold finish) wrapped in Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 tires.

The interior is also set up for track use, with full carbon bucket seats and the Clubsport package that fits the car with a rear half cage with racing harnesses and fire extinguisher. That being said, although undoubtedly track focused, this GT4 RS retains all of the convenience features you would hope for in a modern car, with an infotainment screen in the center stack and HVAC system. The steering wheel and the top and bottom of the dash are all wrapped in Race-Tex and carbon fiber trim lines the center of the dash, door cards, sill plates and center console.

Powering the GT4 RS is a 4.0-liter Flat-6 that is largely the same unit found in the GT3. Producing 490 horsepower and 330 lb-ft of torque, this is a 79 horsepower bump over the standard GT4 and an increase of 15 lb-ft of torque. When paired with a 7-speed PDK gearbox - the only available gearbox for the GT4 RS- the RS shaves half a second off the 0-60 mph time, doing the sprint in just 3.2 seconds and featuring a top speed of nearly 200 mph. Perhaps even more importantly than the straight line speed is that the GT4 RS generates 25% more downforce than the standard GT4 - largely down to its “swan neck” rear wing. This helps the GT4 RS shave an astonishing 23 seconds off the standard GT4’s Nürburgring Nordschleife lap time.

By introducing the GT3’s engine into the Cayman and pairing it with redesigned aerodynamics, Porsche engineers made what is undoubtedly one of the ultimate driver’s cars to ever come out of Stuttgart. This example is very nicely equipped, and with the deductible 19% VAT, this becomes one of the most appealing GT4 RSs on the market.
