Those silver GTS wheels are gorgeous.

It was damn near impossible to find photos of a SB GTS with silver wheels when I ordered mine so it was almost entirely on faith. I’m so so happy with how they look on it!

Those silver rims look good on every colour IMO. I had them on the yellow GTS and they looked equally good. Excellent choice!

We agree on the silver wheels,

We ordered a Shark Blue Cayman GTS with silver wheels. I really wish that the “option of Aluminum Window trim” that is available on the Cayman S was allowed on the Caymsn GTS 4.0 to complete the look!!

The interior will be in espresso / cognac with the option of “ deviated seat inserts” that will be in espresso leather. Some photos from Rennlist of Shark Bue and espresso / Cognac are included below.






the option of “deviated seat centers” in espresso leather. We are expecting to take delivery at the PEC Center in Atlanta in March.

It is an interesting build as Shark Blue is a very loud and extroverted color while Espresso/Cognac interior is quite classy and subtle. It will be a clashing build in my opinion that will not be for everyone. On a side note I really really love Espresso/Cognac interior combo (wish I could have gotten it on the Spyder), just think it would be a better match with a more subtle exterior color.

I went all the way….yellow stitching. Yellow dials. Yellow belts. ANd yellow calipers. Seems like a lit of yellow and I was afraid it would be….but it turned out pretty damn cool!!! Different strokes I reckon!!!

Totally missed this thread for months...

Here is my SB GT4 that I picked up in May 2022 at PECLA. Car was amazing from the factory but after installing Dundon street header and OAPs the car has been completely transformed - what a beast.

No issues, when you get the time, would really appreciate it.

I did a video instead. I hope this helps with your decision.

This looks awesome. I am guessing that's like a 160k car?
I can’t decide between IGM/blue top/blue calipers and stitching and IGM/black roof/lizard calipers and stitching
