A Cayman GT4 over a GT3RS ??????
WTF ?

If the GT3 RS had have remained a manual it would have won. If the Macca was manual it would have won.

Surely you're not suggesting that it's more involving than a manual gearbox, are you?

That was the point, I think. I'm not sure if I agree with them though.

Almost all those cars have more performance than you can use anyway, so I guess it just came down to which one was the most fun overall....not in the first 10 seconds, but after many days of driving.

Did I mention how boring that video was?

Tristan was suggesting that the GT3RS and 675 would be better with a manual box. I would suggest that it would actually be a LOT worse. These things are so damn fast and they rev faster than a superbike, if you had a manual box you just wouldn't be able to stay on top of things in balls out driving.

Perhaps hard to imagine if you haven't spent significant time behind the wheel of a modern super car. They require quite a different approach compared to classic cars.

No, I am not suggesting that at all. I was alluding to Evo's clear bias and preconceived notion of driver involvement (which I generally agree with).

Wow that scenery and the cars, I wish they didn't talk, that's what's ruined it for me.

I love the GT4, can you still order one? Do they come with a double clutch?

Manual only. I've been casually inquiring about availability with a couple of dealers and haven't found any yet.
