However, now she\u2019s so used to the Prius AT that she won\u2019t even drive a manual for simple parking maneuvers anymore\u2026 (cry)<br \/>\n\u30fbMessage to readers:<br \/>\nAmong Porsche sports cars, the Cayman is positioned as an entry-level model under the hierarchy topped by the 911, but <strong>\u201cit truly drives, corners, and stops like a Porsche.\u201d<\/strong><br \/>\nAlso, <strong>I feel the GT4 offers excellent cost performance compared to the 911.<\/strong> It\u2019s very satisfying, equipped with components from the 911 GT3, and with a manual transmission, it\u2019s extremely attractive aside from the price. It almost makes you think, &#8220;<strong>Do I really need a 911?<\/strong>&#8220;<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"style3a\">1) How I Decided to Buy<\/h3>\n<h4 class=\"style4b\">\u2013 Inspired by My Nephew\u2019s Porsche Purchase<\/h4>\n<p>I\u2019m from the supercar generation, so since elementary school, I thought, &#8220;<strong>I will definitely drive a Porsche someday.<\/strong>&#8220;<br \/>\nBut even though I admired the brand, the high barrier to entry made me hesitant to buy a Porsche for a long time. Then one day, my nephew bought his first car, a used 987 Boxster. <span style=\"font-size: 8pt;\">(Later upgraded to 981 \u2192 993)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-12795\" src=\"https:\/\/www.panamera-life.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/IMG_3742-800x597.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"597\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Seeing that, <strong>my older brother bought a used 997, and that motivated me to take the plunge as well.<\/strong> When I accompanied him for the 997\u2019s inspection, I happened to fall in love at first sight with a displayed GT4.<br \/>\nI also like convertibles, so I was torn between the Boxster Spyder and the GT4, but the GT4\u2019s rear wing won me over.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-12785\" src=\"https:\/\/www.panamera-life.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/IMG_0021-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" \/><\/p>\n<p>When you think of Porsche sports cars, the 911 comes to mind, and I admire its packaging and excellent visibility, but the Spartan, cost-effective GT4 suited me perfectly.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"style3a\">2) Options \/ Specifications<\/h3>\n<p>Since it was a used car, there was no choice in options, but<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"style4b\">Left-Hand Drive<\/h4>\n<p>Right-hand drive feels more natural in Japan, of course. Still, even with left-hand drive, compared to the Abarth 500, <strong>the pedal layout feels less awkward.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h4 class=\"style4b\">Body Color<\/h4>\n<p>The body color is black. Solid black shows wash scratches and fingerprints easily, so I wouldn\u2019t order it new, but <strong>if you can keep it clean, the reflections look beautiful and cool.<\/strong> If buying new, I\u2019d probably choose white.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-12786\" src=\"https:\/\/www.panamera-life.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/IMG_3734-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" \/><\/p>\n<h4 class=\"style4b\">Interior<\/h4>\n<p>The three options\u2014<strong>black leather interior<\/strong> (with Alcantara parts), <strong>contrast color stitching<\/strong>, and <strong>colored seat belts<\/strong> (guards red)\u2014aren\u2019t absolutely necessary, but\u2026<br \/>\nStill, <strong>they make the simple Cayman interior feel luxurious and provide satisfaction beyond the price.<\/strong><br \/>\nHowever, the standard Alcantara steering wheel and shift knob seem designed for gloves, and I felt &#8220;<strong>bare-handed, genuine leather feels much better.<\/strong>&#8221; <span style=\"font-size: 8pt;\">(I was impressed the first time I gripped the genuine leather steering wheel on the 981, feeling it cling to my bare hands.)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-12794\" src=\"https:\/\/www.panamera-life.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/IMG_0070-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-12788\" src=\"https:\/\/www.panamera-life.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/IMG_0075-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" \/><\/p>\n<h4 class=\"style4b\">Sport Chrono Package<\/h4>\n<p>At first, I thought the clock was essential because the dashboard looks bare without it, but since the GT4\u2019s functions don\u2019t change much, it might not be necessary.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-12800\" src=\"https:\/\/www.panamera-life.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/IMG_0116-600x800.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"800\" \/><\/p>\n<h4 class=\"style4b\">Full Bucket Seats<\/h4>\n<p>The seats are quite large, so they don\u2019t perfectly fit my height <span style=\"font-size: 8pt;\">(170cm, average build)<\/span>. <strong>The seats can be electrically raised but can\u2019t recline,<\/strong> making getting in and out difficult. I expect to be tossed side to side even on the circuit.<br \/>\nAlso, maybe because my legs are short, the fore-aft adjustment is just right at the very front. Still, they look great, and I purposely don\u2019t tint the windows so I can enjoy viewing the interior from behind.<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"style4b\">Smoking Package<\/h4>\n<p>I don\u2019t smoke, but since it comes with a free cigar socket and cover, it\u2019s convenient.<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"style4b\">Others<\/h4>\n<p>\u30fbAuto air conditioning<br \/>\nEven though it\u2019s automatic, I still adjust it manually, so manual would be fine.<br \/>\n\u30fbPassenger seat storage net<br \/>\nA free option, so it\u2019s nice to have.<br \/>\n\u30fbBlack wing<br \/>\nSince the body is black, the black wing suits it well. Also floor mats, backup camera, and so on.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"style3a\">3) Delivery Process<\/h3>\n<p>This GT4 was sold at the opening of a new store of a long-established Porsche certified used car center in Kansai. <strong>Several GT4s were listed at the time, but all were sold by lottery.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-12790\" src=\"https:\/\/www.panamera-life.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/IMG_3746-600x800.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"800\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-12792\" src=\"https:\/\/www.panamera-life.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/IMG_3745-800x597.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"597\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I hoped for a &#8220;white body, right-hand drive with standard seats,&#8221; but since many people wanted that, the chance of getting one was low. So I reserved and purchased a &#8220;<strong>black body, left-hand drive with full bucket seats<\/strong>&#8221; which fewer people wanted.<\/p>\n<p class=\"well3\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.panamera-life.com\/entry\/porsche-owners-file-17-caymangt4\/2\/\"><strong>Next page \u2192 Cayman GT4 engine, ride feel, fuel economy, does the front scrape often?\u2026<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p><!--nextpage--><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"style3a\">4) Porsche Performance as Experienced<\/h3>\n<h4 class=\"style4b\">\u2460 Engine \/ Engine Sound<\/h4>\n<p>It\u2019s a very loud car. The naturally aspirated flat-six engine sound, exhaust note, mechanical noises from the drivetrain, and brake squeal when stopped are just noise to bystanders, but <strong>to the driver, they\u2019re exhilarating sounds.<\/strong><br \/>\nAlso, with sports mode and sports exhaust on, you feel like downshifting unnecessarily.<br \/>\nThe engine delivers torque smoothly across the rev range, but up to about 7,000 rpm, it doesn\u2019t have a sharp torque peak at higher revs.<br \/>\nI think the GT3 has that, so I\u2019d love to <strong>experience the GT3\u2019s special engine at high revs.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-12793\" src=\"https:\/\/www.panamera-life.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/IMG_3736-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-12801\" src=\"https:\/\/www.panamera-life.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/IMG_0022-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Still, the Cayman GT4 offers more than enough long-lasting acceleration. <strong>With its relatively large 3.8L displacement, it has strong low-end torque and can be in 6th gear even at 30 km\/h.<\/strong> Also, it\u2019s not peaky, so you can lazily drive 1st \u2192 3rd \u2192 5th in town.<br \/>\nAlso, the dealer warned me, &#8220;<strong>PDK is fine, but don\u2019t exceed 7,000 rpm with the manual.<\/strong>&#8221; So I consciously ease off the right foot. Apparently, hitting the rev limiter is recorded in five stages and may void the dealer warranty.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-12787\" src=\"https:\/\/www.panamera-life.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/IMG_0078-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Comparing the basic manual 981 Boxster and the GT4, the smaller displacement means less power, but the 981 Boxster is still fast and a proper sports car. I actually liked its lightness.<br \/>\n<strong>It\u2019s impressive how each grade has its own character\u2014classic Porsche.<\/strong><br \/>\nAlso, comparing the loaner 718 and 981, <strong>the 718 felt overwhelmingly faster and more nimble even in the same basic grade.<\/strong> But its engine sound reminded me of Subaru\u2019s flat-four from the era of equal-length unequal firing intervals, making me think of Subaru rather than Porsche.<br \/>\nFor those unfamiliar with Subaru engines of that time, it\u2019s a distinctive flat-four sound.<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"style4b\">\u2461 Ride Comfort \/ Ride Feel<\/h4>\n<p>The ride is firm but <strong>much more supple than sports cars of the previous generation.<\/strong> Also, I\u2019m insensitive because I can\u2019t feel the difference between PASM on and off.<br \/>\nThe GT4 sits low and has a dedicated front lip spoiler, and <strong>there\u2019s no lifter, so the front scrapes often.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-12796\" src=\"https:\/\/www.panamera-life.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/IMG_0115-597x800.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"597\" height=\"800\" \/><\/p>\n<p>On normal roads and railroad crossings, it doesn\u2019t scrape if you\u2019re not careless. At convenience stores or gas stations with steep slopes, entering diagonally helps avoid scraping.<br \/>\nAlso, narrow self-parking garages with tight diagonal entries are likely to cause scraping.<br \/>\nBut even if it scrapes, it\u2019s the bottom of the spoiler and not noticeable or seriously damaged. <strong>Also, as is common knowledge for this type of car, never stop against wheel stoppers.<\/strong><br \/>\nRegarding visibility, when I first drove a 911 (997), I was impressed that despite being a sports car, <strong>it has excellent all-around visibility forward, diagonally behind, and to the rear.<\/strong> That makes it safe even for women.<br \/>\nHowever, the Cayman\u2019s diagonal rear visibility is somewhat limited, though not critically. Personally, I like the low, cocooned seating position of the Cayman.<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"style4b\">\u2462 Brakes<\/h4>\n<p>You don\u2019t notice much in town, but on the highway, braking hard decelerates you so quickly it feels like you might be rear-ended. The more you press, the stronger it brakes.<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"style4b\">\u2463 Manual Transmission<\/h4>\n<p>The clutch is relatively heavy but not burdensome. The unique smooth engagement when starting is nice. As mentioned in previous articles, Porsche drivers consciously try to &#8220;<strong>not press the accelerator when starting<\/strong>,&#8221; which feels nerve-wracking as if the engine might stall. I\u2019m not yet able to do it unconsciously.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-12797\" src=\"https:\/\/www.panamera-life.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/IMG_0008-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ve never found shifting stiff, the pattern unclear, or gear changes difficult, but I wouldn\u2019t call the shift feel \u201cexquisite.\u201d<br \/>\n<strong>The GT4 has a short shifter unlike other grades,<\/strong> but it\u2019s not so direct that you can shift with just a wrist flick, and <strong>being mid-engine, it lacks the directness of a FR car.<\/strong> I recall the Cappuccino I used to drive was more crisp. <span style=\"font-size: 8pt;\">(Though it\u2019s a bit presumptuous to compare.)<\/span><\/p>\n<h4 class=\"style4b\">\u2464 Driving<\/h4>\n<p>On mountain roads, <strong>it feels like you\u2019re turning around the axis of a spinning top, which is very satisfying.<\/strong> Where other cars require braking before corners, the GT4 can corner smoothly without braking. It has a very high limit.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-12804\" src=\"https:\/\/www.panamera-life.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/IMG_0007-800x533.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" \/><\/p>\n<p>When you turn the wheel and step on the gas roughly, the rear wheels briefly slip, and probably the PSM intervenes to correct the posture.<br \/>\nThe intervention is not excessive; it respects the driver\u2019s intent, feels natural, and is reassuring.<br \/>\nI don\u2019t have the skill or experience to fully master the GT4, but I feel the <strong>design philosophy is at a very high level.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h4 class=\"style4b\">\u2465 Fuel Economy<\/h4>\n<p>Highway: about 10 km\/L, smooth rural roads: 11 km\/L, city: 7\u20138 km\/L.<\/p>\n<h4 class=\"style4b\">\u2466 Maintenance<\/h4>\n<p>It\u2019s been almost <strong>two years since I owned it, with one inspection and one oil change, which was free as a service.<\/strong><br \/>\nThe first inspection cost is unknown, but there have been no troubles so far, and it doesn\u2019t feel like it will break down, so I think it can be driven with the peace of mind of a Japanese car in the long run.<br \/>\nHowever, from online info, it seems there\u2019s a service campaign (recall) for the GT4\u2019s manual transmission. I haven\u2019t received a notification yet, but it\u2019s a bit concerning.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-12799\" src=\"https:\/\/www.panamera-life.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/IMG_3743-800x600.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" \/><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"style3a\">5) Points of Concern<\/h3>\n<p>I haven\u2019t gotten used to how to engage the parking brake and sometimes forget to apply it. I wish it were a handbrake or foot pedal, or at least a switch near the center console.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"style3a\">6) Options I\u2019d Like on My Next Porsche<\/h3>\n<p>Not exactly an option, but <strong>manual transmission (MT) and right-hand drive.<\/strong> Nowadays, ATs are overwhelmingly faster, and PDK\u2019s seamless shifts are attractive, but I want to feel the sense of controlling a sports car myself, so I can only enjoy it with a manual. I\u2019m just an old-fashioned person (laughs).<br \/>\nAlso, left-side driving suits right-hand drive better, and though I\u2019m getting used to left-hand drive, it\u2019s still inconvenient. The 981\u2019s pedal layout doesn\u2019t feel problematic. Many other options increase satisfaction, but even without them, you can still feel the Porsche essence.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-12803\" src=\"https:\/\/www.panamera-life.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/IMG_3748-800x597.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"597\" \/><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"style3a\">7) What Porsche Means to You<\/h3>\n<p>It\u2019s a car to experience the extraordinary and refresh yourself, like going on an overseas trip.<\/p>\n<p class=\"well2\">\u3018Blog Administrator\u2019s Thoughts\u3019<br \/>\nI actually saw this GT4 at the Royu Driveway observatory, and it was very beautiful and cool.
