I'm new to Porsche and car ownership in general. Is there a good price point and brand of coolant to look for ? On a side note: I've noticed my oil and coolant temps go up by about 30* C (takes about 5 mins) when I switch from Normal to Sport mode without any aggressive driving/acceleration. Is...

Yes I love the sound of my engine. I’ve replaced the standard exhaust with the Litchfield option and above 3000 revs it’s great. But there are moments like crawling around the M25 when some music is needed to stop you going nuts in 30mph traffic. I have always found the Bose sound to be not at...

Hi everyone, Just wanted to quickly introduce myself because I secured a confirmed allocation for a new 2023 Cayman GTS 4.0 yesterday through a local dealer, and I've received so much great advice by searching around on the 718 Forum over the past few weeks. This will be my first Porsche (and...

Just back from a 1500 mile drive around sunny Ireland in my recently purchased 718 Boxster GTS 4.0. Something I would have never done in my 458 Spider. Very happy to be joining the forum. I have owned 3 911s and 4 Ferraris in the past 6 years. Nothing gets close to the GTS for real world fun...

Hi .... Been lurking for a while. Have a 4.0 CGTS on order, build in October .... swapping from 2.5 GTS (sold already). I'm an old school old boy now - the F4T was an amazing car (I kept it for 4 1/2yrs), but now want to re-live some on NASP youth! This one is the keeper. This is different to...

I installed RGS mesh grills on my 22BGTS4.0, but I took off the front bumper. It’s not an easy job, would recommend the dealer to install them. I had a small ( not small to me) casualty. But over all they look great. Any suggests on how to repair the scratch!

I can't even imagine what this thing is like! Great review as always by the boys!

So I am going to have a proper review in the Spring. I don't want to write anything while it's Winter and I'm not really able to drive it properly. The car is fantastic, but aside from my 1500 mile journey, have only done some local cruising, and nothing even close to it's capabilities. An...

WE THREE KINGS OF ORIENT ARE BEARING GIFTS WE'VE TRAVELED SO FAR I know of the following allocations available RIGHT NOW: 1. Cayman Base, S, or T 2. Boxster GTS 4.0 (2) So who has been nice to me and who hasn't??? hmmmm haha Who is interested?? I'll arrange a call... serious inquires only!!

Hi all, so it's a shame that this has to be my first post since being back from my trip, but it's going to eat me alive until it's solved. The car is incredible, the trip was incredible, everything is amazing, and I'll detail this all in a later post, but right now I need a problem solved...

So, due to some housing market circumstances, we have decided to put off moving to Florida for a few months, but since my car has arrived at the dealer, I will be flying down next week to pick her up and drive her all the way from Pompano Beach to Northern, NJ. The whole break-in period should...

Porsche lists the “Max. ground clearance (steel suspension)” as 4.4 inches. I find this confusing given that the standard config has a 20mm lowered Sport PASM suspension. That would make its clearance higher than the base config 718 model, which everyone seems to agree is 4.3”. Would that...

I figured since we will be seeing a lot of these photos from the cars being produced recently and in the future, that it might make sense to make a single thread to show off our cars! My full spec can be seen here in this thread: 2022 Cayman 718 GTS 4.0 This car was produced last week...

I suspect it will be a few months until I get to freeze the spec for my Boxster 4.0 but the biggest decision will be whether to go -10 or -20 on the suspension. I will use the car on the track four or five times a year but mainly for road trips (not a daily driver). Ideally I would prefer - 20...

Hi everyone - I'm starting to talk to dealers in TX via email about my Porsche configuration. I received this email from the first dealer that reached out from Porsche San Antonio after I asked for dealers invoice and looking to negotiate away from MSRP ($102,000) .. "Good evening Stefan...

I am new to this forum so sorry if this has been asked...but has anyone had battery issues with their 2021 Cayman GTS 4.0?? I did a search of the forum and couldn't readily find anything that matched our issue. We have had the car since Decemeber of 2020. There have been multiple times the...

Hi all, Anyone know of good aftermarket diffusers for the 4.0's? Lots of support out there for the center-exit tips but what about split exit variant? Looking for options. Thanks!

While I await my new Boxster delivery in November, I thought I might query the Forum on some driving questions. (Please humor me here as my 993 sold in a quick minute and I am currently Porsche-less.) I was always instructed to downshift my 911s (albeit all air-cooled) into first gear slowly and...

I hope I don’t offend anyone with my old school street racing questions, but I am seeking input on the best way to launch a GTS 4.0 718 with a small (car length) burn out. On my test drive, I dumped the clutch at max revs (4-5K?) and got lots of axle tramp? All input appreciated.

Has any one configured their car with the larger fuel tank?
