The other day.GTS4.0, a 4.0L horizontally opposed 6-cylinder NA engine model of the 718GTShas been announced, and there has been quite a bit of buzz on the Internet. I had thought that the 718GTS available now was a 4-cylinder model and only the 718 Spyder and GT4 were 6-cylinder models, but now the 6-cylinder NA engine is back in the GTS.
The GTS 4.0 specifications are detailed in various articles, so I won't go into that much detail in this article.
Maximum output is 400ps.(35 PS more than the 4-cylinder GTS version)
0-100km/h time is 4.5 seconds.
Maximum speed is 293 km/h
The first transmission is a 6-speed manual transmission.
The Japanese version is only available in right-hand drive at this time.
The GTS model is a good example of this.Sport Chrono Package, PASM sport suspension, Porsche Torque Vectoring (PTV)is standard equipment
The exterior features black-colored design elements unique to the GTS model.
interpoint (interword separation)GPF (gasoline particulate filter)is installed (Japanese specifications are unknown).
The price of the Boxster GTS4.0 in Japan is 11,110,000 yen.
I guess that's what it's all about.
The morning of the day this "GTS 4.0" was announced, my husband
I've heard of the GTS4.0, but I guess those who already bought the 718GTS may have mixed feelings about it.A friend of mine bought a 718 Boxster GTS.But...
He said, "I wish Porsche would think a little more about the timing of the release.... To which I said, "Really, I wish Porsche would think a little more about the timing of their releases..." and he said, "I wish they would think a little more about the timing of their releases...
No, Porsche often does this kind of launch. Late start rock-paper-scissors is common. w Well...maybe the sales of the 4-cylinder 718 were worse than expected...well, maybe the old-time Porsche lovers were not so interested in the 4-cylinder....
And.
Incidentally, my husband currently owns a 918 Boxster GTS, and I decided to ask him how he felt about the announcement of the GTS4.0. He replied, "I think it's a good idea.
If I were to buy my first new Boxster or Cayman right now, this GTS 4.0 would be pretty good.If I didn't have a 981 Boxster GTS, I would definitely buy one.
The reason is still the same: "6-cylinder NA engineThe fact that it's a "street car" is significant. Add to that the 718's strong chassis performance, more street oriented than the GT4 or Spyder. What more can you ask for? And the GTS...not many will be produced, so it's easy to imagine a good resale, and I think it's a very good one.
He said. Then you're going to replace it!" I asked.
No, I'm not buying it. One reason is because it is a right-hand drive MT. That is the biggest reason. There is no reason to go to the trouble of selling a left-hand MT 981 Boxster and paying the additional cost to change to a right-hand MT, which is harder for me to drive.(I'd totally be okay with PDK on the right)
Next, we will discuss theI still can't let go of the sound of the 981 Boxster GTS engine.That's how good that sound of the 981 is. Personally, I think it is without a doubt the best Porsche of the last 10 years or so, and a masterpiece. It sounds great whether you are driving it in the city or on a winding road.
besides330 PS, just manageable on Japanese winding roads, this car has too much happiness than absolute performance.I'm not going to change this one. So I don't want to bother changing this either, at additional cost.
I see. I see.
I also really love the sound of the engine of my current 981 Boxster GTS, and I'm so impressed that I want to cry, so I'm going to say "I hope my husband will always own a 981.I was relieved because I thought, "I'm not going to be able to do that.
However, when someone I know buys a "GTS 4.0", I would be happy to have him or her ride in the passenger seat.................w
