<\/p>\nYou could do worse than spend time behind the wheel of a 718 Cayman on a nice road. Upping the ante to the Cayman GT4 RS is even better. Finding an empty stretch of winding mountain road to enjoy it? Now we’re talking legit automotive heaven. Tragically, Porsche treats us to just 56 seconds of such nirvana in this short video, but fear not. We have the inside scoop on how you can enjoy this exact road.<\/p>\n
But first, here’s a reminder of what makes the Porsche 718 Cayman GT4 RS so special. It’s the range-topping trim in the Cayman line, borrowing the beautiful 4.0-liter naturally aspirated flat-six from the 911 GT3 for power. It’s tuned to 493 horsepower here, driving the rear wheels through a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission.<\/p>\n

Porsche says the GT4 RS reaches 60 mph in 3.2 seconds, so long as there’s enough grip available. It can also lap the Nurburgring’s Nordschleife loop in just over seven minutes. Our own experience driving the GT4 RS confirms this is indeed a fantastic driver’s car.<\/p>\n
Here’s what makes the road in this video so special. Iron Mountain Road in western South Dakota could be the best-kept road trip secret of them all. It’s not really<\/em> a secret \u2013 there’s a website dedicated to this 17-mile jaunt through the central Black Hills \u2013 but it doesn’t get anywhere near the attention of places like Tail of the Dragon. And yet, with 314 curves snaking through granite cliffs and three tunnels, it’s every bit as thrilling to drive. The road is home to the “pigtail bridges,” a segment that literally spirals through two 360-degree turns.<\/p>\n
