Great vid. Showing why the 2.7l manual is likely the best for mountain roads. I have a 981 but mine is PDK. Still an unbelievable blast on the street. Getting that baby up to 7600 is so much fun, I love slow car fast.
I learn a ton making the videos - and for this one and others I’ve made with the 981 2.7 - it’s clear the experience on a mountain road is top shelf. The car makes you push it in order to get the most out of it! Thanks for watching and commenting!
The 718 is amazingly capable - perhaps a little more capable than the tires and suspension let you fully enjoy on a road like this one! Agree - both fantastic. Thanks for the comment!
It is amazing to see the difference between the 971 and the 718 in the tightest section at the end. The excitement and push come through on video with the 981 - and the 718 is a bit more subdued on camera.
That little 2.7 working so hard! It's a shame they didn't equip it with a shorter ratio transmission, but great job nonetheless!
It’s amazing how similar the two cars are with their final ratios. Cool to hear the 2.7 rev it out!
The 981 sounds awesome.
It really does - a finely tuned instrument of fun!
Such a great road and Suches is a really cool town.
For sure it is - and also a very well patrolled area there in Suches!

Might have to pick up a 981 2.7 - gets to use all the revs! Liking the split view compare with the GTS 4.0. Great to see the entire 5+ miles too!
The split screen comparisons really show how little difference there is between the fast line and the slow line! Thanks!
Both fantastic cars. The engine in the 718 is a corker though and very fast indeed 😀

Slow cars are always better 😄😄
