Default 718 Cayman GTS

We just got one of our first Cayman GTS in. It looks so futuristic with the Sport Design front bumper. PM me for details




Future.


The tinted LED tail lights are such a nice touch


YUMMY

White isn't for me but I totally get why other people love it. The white/black combo is one of the sexiest combinations.

The gloss black on the very front of the car (even the front lip, which gets the most abuse) would give me detailing nightmares.

I like the tinted tail lights. I got that on my base model

I know black wheels are popular with many here, but these photos reinforce why I'm not a fan. The detail of the wheel gets totally lost. Why hide what is otherwise a really beautiful wheel

The "because it hides brake dust" argument doesn't cut it IMO. I'd rather have a dirty wheel you can see than a clean wheel you can't.

I know, I know . . . to each his own.

Otherwise a lovely car that will make someone very happy. GLWS

Good looking car overall, though I'm not sure how I feel about the gloss black wing...

I agree with the wheel comment. We have ordered ours in Graphite Blue and with wheels painted in Satin Platinum. I think it will make a very sweet combo but won't know for certain for another month or so.

Totally agree with your assessment. I've never liked black wheels for those very same reasons.

I have to agree as well. I liked the Carrera wheel but like you guys have said with the black finish on the wheel it loses all definition. I also ordered my car with the satin platinum paint. Light enough to show definition but not as bright as silver.
