      I guess you underestimate the logistics behind that. For example, you'd always have to wait for kind of the same weather to really make a point out of the different times to compare it. This alone is probably incredibly hard having to schedule shootings with manufacturers and other wealthy people lending their cars. Then you need a qualified driver that is able to put down the exact same skills everytime with every car. There are probably a lot more difficulties than the two I could think of immediately. I doubt the reward for all the effort is high enough.

      @@EmillionWayz firstly Mr JWW it's a pretty good driver, if it's his own channel he could do the driving himself, and not even Top Gear could manage to put all cars in good weather conditions,so you just need to acknowledge the conditions and put that in perspective when comparing the cars.

    My uncle has the previous model GT4 Cayman, and I’ve got to say even being in the passenger seat, the noise, the experience, the way it sticks into corners and everything and so much more that makes you feel as if you are in a car made to race. Surely one of the most complete cars ‘for your money’ out there. Awesome vid.

    I have had the unique privilege of discovering your channel late in its existance. What I mean is, like starting in the middle of "season" 3 of Game of Thrones - I needed to go and watch from the beginning! So, I've gotten the accelerated version by watching 2-3 "episodes" during my work day lunch hours. Really enjoyable content and very diverse, also love the evolution of the brand, keep it up.
    One thing I've noticed, as a licensed, weekend warrior racer, is that you are not using a neck restraint or more advanced seatbelts. For the regularity that you are on a track, you've transitioned from "if" something could go wrong to "when" something will go wrong. There are many options out there that do not require a full harness for a HANS style device. Also, I noticed on Schroth's website today, that they have a harness that uses the factory seat belt connectors for temporary use.
    Apologies for the lecture, but i just don't like seeing good people get into trouble.

This is a serious car, with a serious design platform. I wish you had spoken to the tall gearing required by Porsche so this car wouldn’t tromp all over its 911 big brother. And no, I’m not a 911 hater, as I’ve owned two of them.
