Re: 981 vs 718

What is all the "fuss" with the 4 cylinder engines over the 6's?

Cause the 4 bangers sound like Subarus maybe?

Here's a 981 GTS test with Henry Catchpole.

Chris Harris sums up the difference very nicely in this test drive of a 718 S.

If you have problems understanding the "English" you an always use Google translate.

In my opinion it's more of an "emotional" or "nostalgic" thing. I remember when the V8 was disappearing, OMG, OMG it’s the end of the world! And now who’s driving a V8 today. Better get ready because by the end of the decade it’s probably going to be 0 cylinders.

I still drive a V8. Ford F150 2011 ordered it because I wanted a regular cab short bed. Added backup camera and parking sensors. If you go to a dealer the only regular cab will most likely be a white work truck with a long bed.
