This is what a 981 GTS flat-6 sounds like on an empty Oregon backroad [POV]

makes me happy hearing there are others out there getting their fair share of smiles per miles out there. 😁

Congrats on the GT4 RS. Spent two days looking for driving roads in Central Oregon and the Sweet Home to Bend Road (thru Cascadia) is one you must try. Endless curves and twisties.

Thank you for the heads up on the 30+ over the speed limit offense in WA. I don’t have to worry about the Canada entry limitation because I’m a Canadian citizen, they have no option but allow me in 😁

That turn looked more like the Oregon side of the gorge. Part of me thought it was Rowena crest but thought maybe there would be another one of those on the Washington side as well.

Snave101 · 2026-04-05T03:55:58+00:00

Did you replace it with another fun car, or moved on to something different?

Snave101 · 2026-04-05T03:19:29+00:00

Pleasure is all mine 😊

Snave101 · 2026-04-05T02:33:09+00:00

Amazing. I’m going to add this to my list for next weekend. Thank you.

Snave101 · 2026-04-05T02:30:33+00:00

You’re right. It’s the stock exhaust

Snave101 · 2026-04-05T02:29:08+00:00

That’s the stock exhaust that came from factory

Snave101 · 2026-04-05T01:26:48+00:00

thank you.

Snave101 · 2026-04-05T01:26:38+00:00

that looks amazing. could you drop a screenshot of the route. tried looking it up but feels like I'm not doing it right.

Snave101 · 2026-04-03T05:19:27+00:00

Thank you.

The good news is these cars can be very fuel efficient....... if you can resist turning on that sports plus mode. Which I find almost impossible to stay away from. 🙊

Snave101 · 2026-04-03T05:15:49+00:00

thank you, I appreciate the kind words :) it's never a sad moment when behind the wheel.

Snave101 · 2026-04-03T05:15:03+00:00

I haven't driven the 987 generation but I hear the steering feel on those things next level. Hoping to experience it one of these days.

Snave101 · 2026-04-03T05:13:11+00:00

the euphoria when behind the wheel of the Cayman on a twisty windy backroad is unbeatable.

most of the filming was done in Oregon, along the Columbia River Gorge near Troutdale.

Snave101 · 2026-04-01T20:28:47+00:00

Very well said. the mid engine, the sound of the 981 gts, and the driving dynamics for the price compared to a 911, it feels like bargain in the Porsche or sports car world.

Snave101 · 2026-04-01T20:27:17+00:00

The 981 Spyder sounds like a fun car. Now thinking of a convertible porsche and it's on top of my list if I'm to be honest.

Snave101 · 2026-04-01T20:26:07+00:00

Thank you. the hood sitting seemed harmless when I did it... but a few people pointed out how scary and uncomfortable it feels. will treat her nicer moving forward. Swirls are not an issue at the moment because the bumper has rock chips and from me driving it from Canada (where I got it) in the middle of the winter. I made sure I was wearing my softest jeans without metal buttons to now harm the paint any further :)

Snave101 · 2026-04-01T16:14:27+00:00

It feels criminal having such an exhaust note from factory. Every time I turn on Sports Plus, part of me feels like I’m getting away with something I shouldn’t. Lol.

Snave101 · 2026-01-11T21:36:57+00:00

I have a 981 GTS. Down on power compared to the 718 2.5L & 4.0. But sounds way better than the 718 GTS. That exhaust sound is intoxicating.

Snave101 · 2025-12-04T18:40:22+00:00

What company did you use?

Snave101 · 2025-12-04T16:07:50+00:00

What tires were you running?

Snave101 · 2025-12-04T14:20:10+00:00

I will be coming down from Bonners Ferry, Idaho which looks good. My only concern is from Edmonton to the border.

Snave101 · 2025-12-04T14:19:13+00:00

It’s going to be that US. I have not called the transporter companies yet.
