Unlike the GT3, the GT4 is attainable. There are plenty of used ones at reasonable money. It’s not an investment car which is good.

2022 Porsche 718 Cayman GT4 RS Hot Lap: How Quick Is It?
Watch pro racer Andy Pilgrim take Porsche’s track star to the limit around the challenging NCM Motorsports Park road course.
2022 Porsche 718 Cayman GT4 RS Hot Lap: How Quick Is It?
Pro racer Andy Pilgrim takes Porsche’s track star to the limit around NCM Motorsports Park.
Nov 25, 2022
"Compared to the standard 718 Cayman GT4, the GT4 RS has bigger brakes, 49 fewer pounds, wider front and rear tracks, and more rear camber. Its more aggressive aero elements contribute up to 220 pounds of downforce at 124 mph. There's an optional carbon-fiber-heavy Weissach pack ($13,250) along with magnesium wheels ($15,640 and saving a further 22 pounds), plus sticky Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2R tires. (The Weissach pack alone consists essentially of cosmetic upgrades, but Porsche won't let you buy the lighter wheels without it.) A mechanically locking rear differential and standard torque vectoring help the car to turn as soon as you breathe on the steering wheel—and trust us when we say, it TURNS.
Indeed, after spending time ourselves driving and testing the 2022 Porsche 718 Cayman GT4 RS and loving every minute of it—well, except for the few staffers who say their ears are still bleeding—we wanted to find out how good it is on the absolute limit of its capabilities in the hands of a professional driver around a fast road course. Multiple-championship-winning sports car racer Andy Pilgrim was happy to oblige, and the 3.2-mile, 23-turn NCM Motorsports Park racetrack in Bowling Green, Kentucky, provided the challenge. How good is this car? Watch the video to find out."
The video is embedded within the link it has GPS. Unfortunately it's not on YouTube or anything and it's not possible to pull it out. But still it's there.

Saw a Spyder in this color IRL up close, and I was shocked at how much I liked it.

I am a fan of shades like champagne, pearl and light copper.

I am not terribly crazy about colors in that spectrum especially on a car like this. It seems more suited for an S-Class, but it was a a really looker.
