Anyone here own a GT4?
Cayman GT4 that is.
Interested to know how it compares to a CSL on road + track. |

The only bad thing about the Cayman GT4 is its extensive use of unobtainium

Porsche made me write a letter of intent to express my interest and get on the reserve list. They insisted that this be written and sent to them on paper, not on email, despite that it makes zero difference from a contractual perspective and a letter of intent is not legally binding anyway (I know - I'm a lawyer). It was just a bit of theatre. Their strategy of making unobtainable limited edition runs in an attempt to create bulletproof residuals and hence elevate the brand has a critical flaw - it disenfranchises the everyman buyer for a car like the GT4. When considered in conjunction with modern finance packages, the prices of almost any Porsche bar the 918 are now within the reach of many performance car enthusiasts, but the company wants to stifle supply. That, combined with the unfortunate manner of their 'sales' people, has put me off the brand, despite previously owning a 2S and trying to order GT3 and GT4. So I'm sticking with BMW or other brands (12C's are looking cheap at the moment...). |

Agree I was in Porsche again yesterday. Sales guy was an elitist twonk. Looking at Cayman GTS as they wouldn't sell me a GT4. Finance rate is crap at 9.7% APR. When challenged they said that they aren't run of the mill like BMW blah blah blah. We parted with me put off the brand due to the arrogance
