When the Cayman GT4 was launched in 2016, it was the answer to many enthusiast wishes. Finally, a Cayman with performance on par with a 911, making for one of the ultimate track-focused enthusiast cars. When the 718 Cayman chassis came out, the new GT4 was even more impressive, utilizing a naturally aspirated 4.0-liter flat 6 and numerous GT3 suspension components, this took the GT4 to the next level, nipping at the heels of the more powerful and expensive 911 GT3. But Porsche wasn’t done yet. Since the 996 generation, the GT3 always received an even more track-focused RS variant, and now, it was the GT4’s turn to get the RS treatment.
This 2023 Porsche 718 Cayman GT4 RS Weissach is an essentially brand-new example, showing just 349 miles at the time of cataloging. Delivered new to Porsche of Stevens Creek in San Jose, CA, this GT4 RS is in as-delivered condition. Fitted with a remarkable $75,085 in factory options, this is a truly one-of-one specification, and the perfect example for a dedicated Porsche collector. Finished in Paint-to-Sample Chalk, this car is accented with exposed gloss carbon fiber – largely thanks to the optional Weissach Package, including on the bonnet, wing, mirror caps, and air intakes. Additionally, the stunning-looking 20” forged magnesium wheels are fitted and finished in Satin Indigo that sit in front of optional Ceramic Composite Brakes. A front axle lift system has been fitted which helps keep the low nose of the car free of scrapes and damage.
Swing open the door and you are met by a pair of hard-back carbon bucket seats, which are upholstered in black leather with deep blue Race-Tex centers. The seat stitching and seat belts are color-matched in Sea Blue, and the door panel trim is finished to match the seats. Although this is the most track-focused version of the Cayman, that doesn’t mean the interior needs to be decontented—items like a Bose sound system, auto-dimming mirrors, and illuminated carbon fiber door-sill guards are all fitted and make this car an attractive dual-purpose street/track car.
Powering the GT4 RS is a 4.0-liter Flat-6 that is largely the same unit found in the GT3. Producing 490 horsepower and 330 lb-ft of torque, this is a 79 horsepower bump over the standard GT4 and an increase of 15 lb-ft of torque. When paired with a 7-speed PDK gearbox – the only available gearbox for the GT4 RS- the RS shaves half a second off the 0-60 mph time, doing the sprint in just 3.2 seconds, and featuring a top speed of nearly 200 mph. Perhaps even more importantly than the straight line speed is the GT4 RS generates 25% more downforce than the standard GT4 – largely down to its “swan neck” rear wing. This helps the GT4 RS shave an astonishing 23 seconds off the standard GT4’s Nürburgring Nordschleife lap time.
Built in limited numbers, the GT4 RS remains one of the most sought after cars to come out of Stuttgart in the past decade. This example is the perfect addition to any collection, and would make a great car to drive and enjoy, or, park up and save in the wrapper as an essentially brand new car.
