Great find on a manual GTS . Looking forward to seeing some pics, including of the "rear wing in high gloss black" (didn't know that was an option)!

Congratulations K Alexander! Graphite Blue is what I call a Porsche color- unusual, rare and unique! Good luck!!

Also stopped in to say congrats and enjoy it! That's such a great color combo and I don't think I have actually seen a GTS in person that had that combo. You will love it!

I'm on a 1045 mi roadtrip to pick up a 2018, base, Silver, blk/chalk interior, 6 speed, etc. Left with 2" of snow this aftn but as I'm headed south roads are now fine. Should easily have a nice 3 day , decent weather window for the ride back. I will try to post photos but most likely when I get home on Sun/Mon.

Reviver,

Chalk is a great color, I am sure you will enjoy it.

Below is a picture of my six month old Chalk Cayman with an Agate Grey interior, I have received many favorable comments on the color.

Best regards

Dave

On the painted side intakes - I ordered the Cayman S with painted side vents and rear Valance along with the bright window trim.

I really like the 'together' look that gives the car...may have to paint mine at some point.

60% of the way back home. LOVING this car! What an absolutely amazing vehicle. Smooth, Just quiet enough. The interior is SO upscale. Love the feel and operation of the controls...Quality not a cheap feel. And he handling is phenomenal. Drove up from No Cal today, Reno up to twin Falls, ID.

One of the only dissapointments when I chose this one was it was listed with the small fuel tank.
Then I look at the option sheet when I picked it up; 16.9 Gal tank! LOL.

Very happy to be in the 718 Club.
