Very nice wrap, and the red looks fine.
Enjoy the driving.

Personally - I love it in the gray with the red interior
But, it's not "bad" with the blue wrap... just looks a little bit like a Jellybean :P

Haha. Loved the jellybean reference. As for the Burmeister the tax is fixed at 120k usd for a Cayman regardless of what options you get. This was a ready stock car so no chance to pick and choose. Therefore went for a high spec car considering the price i’d have to pay anyway.

I think the blue red combination is cool, kind of like old school Porsche. In fact, I remember several 356s at national Parades that had a light blue,red interior combination. Drive it for a while, it will grow on you. When you sell it, take off the wrap if you want, and then it will look like a thousand other cars.

Thanks guys. Really glad it turned out good. Now have to wait a month and half to get the car delivered. I just keep staring at the pictures all day long. Going to be a really long couple of months.

Yes, but not as bad as waiting until January, right?

Hope the time flies by for you. Looking forward to pics and driving impressions once you get some seat time!

Time isn't flying my friend. Car hasn't been shipped yet Ship sails only twice a month from the closest port so just waiting. Getting really really impatient

Taken delivery yet? I hope for your sake the car still isn't in transit.

Got delivery bro. Been a month and a half. Couldn't be more happier with the car. Perfect car for daily driving. Here are a few pictures.

Great to hear! Big congrats. I know the wait was agonizing, but certainly worth it. Enjoy!
