What kind comparisson is it? a GT3 vs Cayman? whats wrong with these ppl, this doesnt prove anything.
-
As much as I love the 911, the Cayman is far superior by design... You just can't make the Cayman better than the iconic flagship of Porsche, the 911. It would destroy all that is good in the world. This video is ridiculous, last time I checked there were like 19 different versions of the 911 and like 3 or 4 cayman models. The test is bogus because of the vast differences in power and rubber. If you had a GT3 cayman you'd see how much better it handled.

This video is a favorite on Kuwait

The GT3 looks excellent in that color.

SHUT UP GRANDPA, my grandma drives faster than you. You got no business doing car reviews on Porsche cars, go back to telling your WW2 or Pearl Harbor stories
-
Agreed.. Put the same tires on each and the 911 gt3 goes down
-
if the cayman r had a 911 engine....it would beat almost anything out there.
-
All the cayman R needs are better tires to beat the gt3
-
I believe Porsche is the only car company in the world to offer front mid and rear engine cars....

If you're gonna compare those two layouts then do the test with similar weight and power cars. Because in this test GT3 had every advantage, 100bhp more, wider tires(better grip, traction).

Why not make it fair and use the same tires? Obviously the GT3 has superior rubber. Not a fare test at all. The cayman is far superior by design.
