Is anyone here waiting to take delivery of a Cayman GTS at Byer’s Imports in Columbus? It’s got natural leather, so I can’t imagine that was ordered for stock.

They all said.... WOW! lol Tomorrow the weather should be better and traffic light, so I'll be driving early to avoid others. I can't help myself. PPF is next week but I can't wait!

This is my wife deciding whether or not to custom order Shark Blue seat belts (they were on backorder when my car was built).

Yea, at least they don't look AS bad (stretched) on my rims because they are all black. I'll see how they are for a while before getting a set of PS4's.

The color is spectacular. At one point last night I walked into the garage and looked at the car when I turned on the lights, the color stopped me in my tracks, I said WOW out loud, honestly!

@landsteam I hope to meet up some day at a Metro PCA event or two.

As of last night, I am out of the room. I plan to write my first impressions at some point, but I am way too much enjoying driving it around for now. As a former Lotus Elise owner, so many similarities regarding driving dynamics but Cayman is much more refined in every aspect. Well, duh...
Shark blue is out of this world. You have to see it to believe it, pics do not do justice.

I finally get to post in this thread. I have a GR GT4 ordered for May '22 delivery!

Time seems to be passing very slowly - checking TYD daily probably doesn't help!

And, I also get to post on this thread! Metallic white Spyder, Classic Boxster interior, red roof, manual trans, PCCBs...
In theory, April delivery - and like Chonson, I probably check TYD far too often.

I've also ordered a bunch of "stuff" to have when the car arrives, with more on the shopping list!

It's a bit of a bummer that you are not getting the car this week, but the wait will be well worth it.

Hi all,
I'm happy to say that I'm now joining the Waiting Room! I just got an allocation for my Boxster GTS yesterday! My configuration locks down on January 25th and the scheduled delivery date is April 8th. This is my first Porsche and I'm so excited! Here is my build: http://www.porsche-code.com/PNCWM671.

If anyone in the Maryland/DC/Northern Virginia area happens to have a car painted in Amethyst Metallic and would be willing to let me see it, please let me know. I've never seen that color in person and the pictures I've seen are either somewhat boring or amazing, depending on the lighting. I can't decide if it's worth the extra cost or not.
