I have talked to 10 - 15 dealers across Midwest, only a few were expecting further allocation of GT4 builds for next spring. I ended up pulling the trigger at $30k ADM.

Would never use the China offering. And I doubt a 4RS is going to get confused with a standard Cayman because of the XENON's. My perspective? Waited 10 years for an allocation and if I could have found the car I wanted and all that was missing was the light option I'd already be driving it.

To each his own . . . .

Had them installed on my car (attached video is of my car). I'd rather have driven around with no headlights in the sockets than look at those base lights another day.

I had some adjustment issues with mine but got them fixed. Tore one apart and the wiring is actually good quality. Well worth the money for us that weren’t able to order anything besides the base lights.

How is light coverage at night? Honestly care less how they look and more about how much light they throw.

Better than the PDLS system I had on the GT3.
