23s faster than the GT4? :shock:
Not exactly a shabby car in itself.

I reckon more than half that time is down to the tyres. They never compare apples to apples funnily enough...
How about not having a sig at all?

@Ben_106Rallye was clearly trend setting years ago when we all screwed our noses up at his grey 964 with purple Design90’s….. :?

What is the lap record for an apple around the Ring?

"The new Porsche 718 Cayman GT4 RS ... is on sale today priced from £108,370.00 RRP. First cars should arrive in Porsche Centres in the UK and Ireland from Spring 2022."

That’s not cheap.

The blue wheels are positively understated compared to the 996 GT3 RS

The wheels alone, yes... but with the yellow brake calipers, totally different colour blue paintwork and black bonnet etc it looks an incoherent mess:

And only on the Weissach pack apparently, which is £9k+.
Then more for the spoiler.

How much more than a std GT4 is it in base spec? £30k.
