Gorgeous colour Dan. I hope you have many happy miles together. Now my daughter is nearly driving my mind has turned to thoughts of one of these or a Boxster.

Nah, I still prefer my Fiesta's blue to that, but the Porsche definitely has a nicer dashboard

Very nice mate almost the spec I’d have gone for though I’d have been tempted by the gold wheels as I’m a bit of a tart.
I can see that fitting into your life better then the GT4. Be interesting to hear your feedback on how the 2 compare

Wow, congratulations that looks epic. I was looking for the paddles on the steering wheel then noticed the wobbly gearstick! I do like the colour, I've never had a blue car myself but if I were to get a Porsche I think I'd be brave and go for that.

I’d have been tempted by the gold wheels as I’m a bit of a tart. I was speccing a 911 on the configurator with every aurum (sp?) option going so I guess I'm a tart, too.

Lovely. Does this replace the OG Cayman or is it an addition?

Cheers all.
Blarno - the silver Cayman departed my ownership in April 2018 and the GT4 departed at the end of July this year. So I was Cayman-less for about 3 and a half months. Order has now been restored!

Horrible thing. What made you buy that after you’d seen sense and got shot of the last one?
I assume you’ll be straight onto WBAC tomorrow morning once you wake up and see what a terrible error you’ve made.
Sorry it came to this: lockdown madness bit you hard there.

Beautiful car in a beautiful colour. I think the GTS 4.0 is pretty much all the car I could ever want.

Yeah - I know, what exactly was I thinking? Those kind chaps at the dealership have offered to take it back on Monday for £20k less than I paid. Honestly, I think they are doing me a favour at that price. I mean, who else in their right mind would ever want one of these? It hasn't even got four seats!

Be interesting to hear your feedback on how the 2 compare Gold wheels would work with that ,but someone on ph just bought a new boxster gts and put gold wheels on ,problem is car is grey and it looks crap. Gold only works with a few colours.

It’s so far removed from ‘forum spec’, I’m not surprised you’re having second thoughts. No spare wheel, terrible wardrobe carrying capacity, no panoramic roof, all black interior, no wood trim, non silver wheels....the list goes on and on! I wish you’d gone for a Boxster, but at £20k off I’ll help you out rather than you having to go back to the dealer and admit you were wrong. You’re welcome. ps only if you specced the passenger seat isofix, but I bet that’s something else you missed off.

It’s OK, it’s something that Porsche has offered as a retrofit option for years.

Ah cool. Didn't know that. Unlikely to apply to me, but good to know anyway and if I need to offer it to you as a fire sale!

That really does look great. The blue really suits it too. I think the blue you had on your GT4 looked better on that car but this shade suits the more grown up and subtle nature of the GTS. I think this will be a real keeper for you. Given the right road it's easily 9.5 tenths the fun of the GT4 but with a lot less propensity to cause you a bad back on your daily commute.
