"I do not believe the Porsche is worth nearly twice the money of the Supra. I think Porsche is just charging you that much money because of the Porsche badge."

Performance

4.5/517 of 17 reviewersstrong consensus

the boxer has 394 horsepower and 317 pound-feet of torque

positive · TheStraightPipes · ▶ 1:41

I absolutely love this four liter flat six engine. It is everything you could possibly want from the heart of a sports car.

positive · CAR magazine · ▶ 8:53

the big difference with this four liter engine is the torque... it pulls it accelerates there's torque here there's a lot of power

Handling

5.0/516 of 17 reviewersstrong consensus

steering is for an EPS very very impressive you get a lot of feedback extremely accurate good weighting

positive · Jubbal & Cars · ▶ 0:33

the porsche just feels way more predictable understeers less feels way more planted

positive · TheStraightPipes · ▶ 25:26

it's so Nimble it's so lightweight it has that kind of effervescent feeling around corners but it's also very solid very confidence inspiring at the same time.

Fun to drive

4.5/516 of 17 reviewersstrong consensus

this gts gives me the ability to kind of exploit it a little bit the limits are high but they're not so high that i'm bored

positive · Tedward · ▶ 7:14

I honestly want you to try these cars. You'll be so surprised.

positive · 9WERKS TV · ▶ 24:32

it truly is one of the great sports car chassis of our generation.

Daily drivability

4.0/516 of 17 reviewersstrong consensus

once you get up to speed once you get going this is a really smooth and easy car to drive and live with on a daily basis

positive · TheTopher · ▶ 10:08

when we're just cruising around the GTS 4.0 is actually really really comfortable it rides nice and soft

positive · Zygrene · ▶ 12:17

if you want to call the GT4 the scalpel the surgical instrument this is the slightly mild or slightly tame or slightly more daily drivable version of that
