I’m lucky to have a 2015 GTS. One note: LSD is not standard on the GTS unless you have the Torque Vectoring option. I do not and have tracked the car without any worries.

"So much better than the average person really understands". You hit the nail on the head there. I really wanted a S3 exige but bought a 981 S a year ago because I couldn't afford the lotus. I don't feel like I need anything else now because it feels so special. It never fails to put a smile on my face. One option that I think is a must is the sports exhaust, it's basically what's responsible for all the burbles you hear in the video and it makes nailing downshifts an addictive experience.

I absolutely love my 981 GTS Cayman. Nothing like it for real world driving.
-
The best video I've seen on the 981. I've got a 718 myself and have been contemplating switching to this generation instead. I yearn for the sound of this generation's flat 6 engine
-
Subscribed because of honesty and integrity
-
Really high quality video, great work.
-
This was the exact spec I had on my 2015. Unfortunately it was totaled during a freak hailstorm in the middle of June a few years ago. I miss it, great car.
-
I recognize some of the landscape in this video, near my home roads AKA "free track day driving" but you need to get out early to have them to yourself. Nice honest review of the 981 GTS, I'm a 987.2 Boxster S owner and I couldn't be happier with my sports car choice.
-
Great review, the 981 GTS with PTV is a great car, agile and quick. It gives up very little to the 981 GT4 particularly if on MPS4S.
-
Another top flight video. I’ve always loved the Cayman but have been too nervous about the maintenance.
-
Nice review! I've been able to drive a lot of Porsche cars over the years and I think the way you summed up which 981 is for you was well done! I share the same feeling and thoughts and I myself ended up with a 981 Cayman GTS two years ago.
-
I've got a 981 Cayman S with zero options except for sport seats and the X73 suspension, its such a great car.
-
Caymans are growing on me. I really want a 997 but dam these are nice!
-
Honey wake up, Buzzy posted a new video!
-
I have a 2015 Cayman GTS pretty loaded including PTV and X73. It's so fun to drive.
-
great car, great video. I was able to score a 2014 S model with all options the GTS has for $30k less money. (minus alcantara)
-
as a side project I added GTS center radiator, front bumper, rear defuser, tail lights numeric shifter to 2015 981 S manual I have few bits left to do like engine map active muffler I had fun doing it, now it is basically GTS spec in the right spec, just an idea, it is much easier to find nice S with desired options,
-
That was very cool.
-
2016 981's are such great cars, I had to get two. A base model for touring and a GT4 for the track.
-
Nice video! I was thinking it might be Connecticut. (My old home state.)
