I was surprised he didn’t go with the leather steering wheel. I don’t know if I am alone but those alcantara steering wheels make my hands sweat. With him being in Florida I would have figured for leather. Maybe I am alone on this hand sweating anomaly. Love you channel and have been watching since you were doing these videos for therapy while washing your car. Thanks for continuing even when folks can be ruthless on the internet.

The spec is superb. Hearing all your honest thoughts on the options is fascinating. I didn't realize I wanted a leather steering column now. For me the colored seat belts are awesome. My kids love them. And I am definitely a color gauge guy. I have the red seatbelts and red tach to match.

I laughed when you mentioned matching interior details with exterior colors. I definitely would have gone for a yellow instead of the red marker. But I accept (lol) your explanation with the Porsche logo on the steering wheel.

Let's gooo, enjoy the car

Can you debadge that little cup graphic on the carbon trim above the glovebox?

I'm not sure. I hadn't thought about that, but now I might try.

Thanks for sharing this, Matt. I hope to get a Cayman, probably not the GT4 but coming from a 94 Mustang GT, the base or S will be light years ahead in performance and technology. I go onto the Porsche website about once a week and do a build, tweaking a few things here and there, this video is extremely helpful in realizing some hidden benefits to a particular option.

I almost made the same mistake with the climate control when specing my Cayman. Luckily, I saw your video with the Porsche sales reps and that saved me. So thanks for that :)

Porsche is just such an amazing company. All the options they have for the drivers to select on their ride, looks like a fun experience. :D Expensive af, but fun lol. I feel like no matter what color combo is on a car, a red strip on the steering wheel just makes sense. I remember I watched someone else spec their Porsche a while back, and they lived in Germany so they picked it up for their delivery experience at that giant Porsche factory building. What an amazing building. :O

Great car. Enjoy it!

“Any chrome I can eliminate in my life is a good thing” I am with you on that one. I hate chrome on a sports car or most any car honestly.

What no roll bar for those runs to Publix

Im a fan of the Cayman. However, the only one I might be able to convince my wife of is the Panamera.

Shameless plug ... but true Boy those bolster protectors really blend and are almost invisible 😍

My 981 GT4 came with the Dunlops as well. I actually preferred them to Cup 2’s as they seemed to wear better.

Wow thank you. Great information! You really helped me with specifying my car. I had no idea that Aluminum Pedals would be /more/ grippy?? Wouldn’t metal on a wet shoe fly off and cause mass destruction? They would look so cool though. Classy. How does it work? Also, you love full leather as i do. But you have kept the alcantara-racetex on the steering wheel and shifter. How was that decision made? Concerned it looks bad after driving just about daily as i will.

Gotta get those windows tinted 20% and opt for black side mirror caps. I like when they blend into the windows.

Beautiful machine!

Matt, do a video on the seats and how to get in and out. I have a 981 gt4 with cf buckets, so I know how to do it, but could be an interesting topic.

Nice review, thanks. What you do not mention is how loud the car is inside especially with the semi-slick tyres on. This makes any costly sound system in my view obsolete. As you are using this car for riding around town and locally you might have been happier with the regular sportseats. The bucket seats are very comfortable even on long trips but are a nuisance for getting in and out. Over here in Germany, the clubsport package with the rollbar is a must as customers seem to be using this car more on track than in town and it helps keeping a better aftersales value. I love your workshop/garage, too. Take care.

Get a stroker built by Steve Dinan from Carbahn for the M3! A 4.6 paired with that exhaust and the Eventuri plenum would sound insane. I feel like a supercharger is not your style and you would probably lose out on the induction noise. You could also toss in some 284/292 Schrick cams and that would be one of the best sounding cars. The stroker motors actually benefit from cams since they make peak power just under 8,000 rpm.

I'm surprised no visor debadge or replacement with the non-sticker euro versions. Also Matt was a big motivator for my 991 purchase and now my Boxster GTS order. I feel like I owe him for those car ideas and the smile I get every time I use the Kranzle setup.

Good point. I need to get that done.

You should upgrade all of the outside plastic trims to Carbon fiber!

Matt you should frame your Monroney window stickers for future memories.

lol I’m only considering my 718 Spyder with yellow seatbelts to match the yellow pccb’s. Any paint color that pushes you to go black with the pccb’s then it doesn’t matter. But match yellow to yellow in these the same way you’d match the green on a 918.

Matt, what option, if available gets the settings you can make with the small round selector attached to the steering wheel at the 4 o’clock position coming off the steering wheel hub/air bag assembly area. It is what sport and some other settings you can make from the steering wheel? Thank you! That color combo is wonderful! Congrats on another great Porsche! Sold my M3 CS due to the crank hub issue. I didn’t want to buy a new engine right when the car came out of warranty. Now l have dedicated the empty garage bay to a BMW R18 motorcycle and future GT3!

Looks slick despite very hard to see in person. On spyders the “spyder” logo on the side of humps is chrome and No option to change it. Sucks.

Funny you say the Aluminum pedals aren't an easy mod to do after the fact. The Porsche option is simply stuck on with double sided tape. You can find many videos of people complaining about them falling off. They do look nice though.

It's a bit strange that both the 718 Spyder and the regular Cayman models have the option of the Burmester system but the GT4 doesn't.
