I’ve now had the opportunity to experience my latest P-car—a 2024 Porsche 718 Cayman GT4 RS—a fair amount past its break-in mileage. I think this is a good indicator that I may now speak freely and credibly when it comes to what I think about the car. My tenure so far has included a light-jog-equivalency at my local racetrack to stretch (and not pull) the car’s hamstrings during the final third of its break-in period.
In the brief 2,500 km accumulated on the odometer, I’ve also done plenty of street driving around town, while simultaneously arbitrating the “daily livability” score of a second consecutive RS car. The first, which has been documented in previous articles catered towards race track use, was a 2016 Porsche 911 GT3 RS. That car was ultimately traded in for the Cayman, which has since preserved an uninterrupted connection to the beloved RS bloodline.
