In this episode of Throttle House, the team delves into the world of Porsche sales in Saskatchewan, where the allure of the Porsche Boxster 718 Spider RS reigns supreme. The RS moniker, standing for Ren Sport, hints at the racing pedigree of this convertible beauty, equipped with a GT3 engine that revs up to an impressive 9,000 RPM. However, the absence of a manual transmission in the RS model raises eyebrows, leaving enthusiasts questioning the essence of a true Porsche driving experience without the traditional stick shift.

Behind the wheel, the team experiences the sheer exhilaration of the high-revving engine paired with the lightning-fast PDK transmission, delivering sharp downshifts and a symphony of engine noises that resonate with every throttle input. Despite the RS being a convertible, the driving dynamics remain intense and precise, with no hint of cowl shake, showcasing Porsche's engineering prowess. Comparisons with the Corvette and Audi R8 highlight the Spider RS's unique blend of performance and engagement, setting it apart in its price range.

As the team explores the Spider RS's design elements, from its lightweight construction to carbon fiber accents and distinctive styling cues, the car's desirability becomes undeniable. Inside, the interior exudes a timeless charm, blending modern features like Apple CarPlay with classic Porsche craftsmanship. However, quirky details like the key ignition and race Tex material add character to the driving experience, emphasizing the Spider RS's track-inspired roots. Overall, the Porsche Boxster 718 Spider RS emerges as a top contender in the pantheon of Porsche's illustrious history, combining performance, style, and driving pleasure in a convertible package that captivates enthusiasts and casual drivers alike.
