GT4.2! Manual or PDK ?
Discussion

Good question. PDK is phenomenal when you get a 9000rpm screaming 4.0 500hp motorsport unit attached to it but what would it be like in a detuned Carrera engine I don't know. Manual suited the GT4 very well because it wasn't, and didn't feel, overly quick.
Loved my GT4 but always felt 'what if' with Pdk...Sadly think my 987 spyder has to go

Have to say I have a hankering for a Pdk 981 GTS and am thinking of flogging my 987 spyder .
Try one before you sell one of Porsche best drivers car. PDK suits the 981 range and it’s a great car, but you feel very disconnected vs your Spyder.
Depends what you want, 981 Boxster gts PDK would prob outdrag a GT4 in the real world and does every thing every well, a better car in some respects than the 981 Spyder.

Not sure what I want next TBH but the Cayman does hit a sweet spot with me and spec is important .

Ha usual top comedy.
More predictably inaccurate and contradictory posting from the top GT3 basher 'but I'm nevertheless hoping for a 2018 slot'.....just to flip it.
Have you got to the running in miles in your 2 year old Spyder yet ? More predictably inaccurate and contradictory posting from the top GT3 basher 'but I'm nevertheless hoping for a 2018 slot'.....just to flip it.
You post such s
t but don’t use your cars, you flipped the GT4 and talk prices up in every post. Then try an say you do more miles than I do lol I actually love GT3's and what they stand for just don’t like some of the bulls
t owners post about them. FocusRS3 said:
Not really interested in a 981 spyder . My 987 is a great example with all the right options and still 18 months Porsche warranty and a 2.5k refresh by the last OPC .

What don’t you like about the 987.2 Spyder, most owners are keepers of these now days. Not sure what I want next TBH but the Cayman does hit a sweet spot with me and spec is important .
I cannot even think about selling that car.
To basic ?
Have you thought about an R8 , they are quite fun and very well built and still look the part.

I don’t talk up the GT4 , it is what it is, I have been more vocal about it’s down sides if anything. You just talk up EVERY car. If you can read the title this is about the GT4 gen 2 and NOT your usual boring 981 Spyder bashing.

Let’s have a laugh tell us the miles on both cars :-) as you do 5x the miles I do.

Really?Despite you just posting this drivel on the GT3 2018 allocations thread,
"I would even go so far as saying the GT4 is more drivers car than the new 911 (GT3) even in manual form."
And thats before hardly anyone, never mind you, has even driven the car!!
You can't get more talking up b
ks than that.
I have been told there won’t be a new GT4 but a GT4RS. This would give Porsche the opportunity to distance a high performance car from the standard 911 range and put something competitive in the GT4 motorsport category. Think GT2 rather than GT3.
Anyone fancy a normally aspirated flat 6 with 430 bhp?
