The reach of PCGB has gifted Porsche Post an exclusive this month. Longstanding member Mike Price has just taken delivery of the UK’s first 718 Cayman GT4 Clubsport, Weissach’s newest customer race car, and we joined him for a test day ahead of its competitive debut.
At first sight it seems improbable that such a thing can be simply bought; a bona fide Weissach-built race car, delivered to your door. It looks not only stunning but also menacing in its purity of purpose. Eschewing the turbocharged four-pot ideology of the road cars, the 718 GT4 again uses the 3.8-litre flat-six from the 991.1 GT3, dry-sumped and finding 419bhp at 7500rpm. The rigidly mounted PDK transmission has shaved a ratio on its way to the track, offering six speeds against the current road-going 911 GT3 RS’s seven.
