I love that color, but why oh why don't people leave the Sport Buckets in there???? There have been so many great Cayman Rs and Boxster Spyders that I've seen without Sport Buckets. They are comfortable, look good, and add value. What's not to like??? I had them in my '09 C4S and did a cross-country drive with my wife. Nothing but positive reviews from us.

You so need this in your garage. You have to buy it on principal. its required. Corner the market on vesuvio.

Someone at Walters has a thing for that color. Wasn't your car spec'd by them?

You guys both know I only have enough space for one car in my garage. Built a spec Cayman race car? I dunno...that means Violet goes into retirement. Is this the only other post Vesuvio Metallic Porsche post 993?

I just noticed that it came from Walters....those guys must love the Vesuvio Metallic color. I wonder if they'll order one in that car for the 991 GT3 and/or the RS.
