Porsche Wants To Build A Hardcore 718 Cayman GT4 But It Has To Wait For Now

Porsche’s head of sports cars claims that he would “definitely” like to see a faster and even more focused RS version of the new 718 Cayman GT4, but that the decision hinges on prioritising development resources within the maker.

“Everybody’s asking for the RS,” Dr Frank Steffen-Walliser told Autocar. “Can I imagine a GT4 RS? Sure I can. That’s not to say we will make a decision on it yet, as it is a challenge. Would I like such a car? Yes, definitely! Would I like more horses? Yes. But we need to put the resources where the market is - it would be a lot more expensive than the normal one.”

Buy a 911 GT3RS instead. Even a used one. This is like buying an optioned up Cayman that costs more than a 911. You can, but you shouldn't.

The GT3 is a wilder car due to the engine only. RR and MR are different feels. The MR is faster all things equal. The GT4 RS would assume to have the wild aero and potential equality in the engine department, making it FASTER.
