Looks like a lot of GT4s landing now! 29 in the last week from 20-26/7.
11 in Syd and 14 in Melb plus a few in other states. Anyone here? Still a rare sight on the road.

One of the Melbourne cars is mine. The ship docked at Melbourne on Monday last week, but when I called the dealer they hadn't received any notification from Porsche Australia.


Patiently waiting....

Awesome. Looks like we are due for a White GT4 meet in Sydney.

Mine should be out of PPF and ceramic coating tomorrow.

Here is a photo from Monday when I went to take a look at the progress. There was a GT3RS in there at the time.

sounds good, a friend of mine has a white one too, and another one picking up a guards red in a couple of weeks.

any recommendations for a shop to wrap the car in Sydney? essentially this will be a track toy so although never bothered putting a film on any of my other cars, I'm considering doing it on this.

So, those in the know,

can you recommend me anyone?
what sort of $$ is a full wrap worth?
finally any particular advice on what to do and or watch out for? - apparently need to make sure the headlights are locked in properly etc...

I am getting a full wrap on mine. It is getting done at Project Detail in Gladesville. He was recommended to me by a friend, but he had also done a GT3RS which I had seen at Cars N Coffee and didn't notice the wrap so I decided to go with him. I won't give you my recommendation until I pick it up tonight and see it finished.

The only other place I have heard recommended is Clear Shield in Castle Hill.

A full wrap is worth between $4k and up depending on which type of wrap material you use.

Happy for you to see my car once it is done if you want to see his work and if it is something you like. I went to see it on Monday and was impressed with his work. Most of the edges were tucked, couldn't see the film. Small bubbles were present but apparently they will go in a few days and heat.

Brand new GT4 available for $225k drive away including all NSW duties... not mine.

"Price Drop!!! Brand New Cayman GT4. Not driven yet. Price is drive away and includes all NSW duties. Best value GT4 for sale and its brand New!

Last Day only. Thursday 28th July. Require deposit today otherwise ad will be taken down tonight and no longer for sale as I will be leaving for overseas on Friday and deciding not to sell anymore due to a change in financial circumstances recently. So you will be making the decision for me to keep or not. Last chance, call me now!

- White with Platinuim wheels
- Sport Bucket Seats
- Sport Chrono Package
- Steering/Gear in Leather
- Seat belts guards red
- Smoking Package (cleaner console)
- Passenger footwell storage net
- Floor Mats
- Larger Fuel Tank 64
- Tints"

http://www.carsales.com.au/private/d...4133374/?Cr=24

Looks like about $10k of options and is at least $20k cheaper than other GT4s on carsales that need to add on road costs. Will it sell?

Thats a pretty good buy and no waiting.

What was the price on Sport Bucket Seats, was it 8k?
From memory I think Sport Chrono Package was about 4k

From the configurator,

Sport buckets $5,490
Sport chrono $3,990
Red seat belts $630

iirc, that puts the asking price on about par with original retail although I'm not sure about the costs of tints as they are not on the configurator.

Full bucket seats from the 918 = $6,890.

Not a bad pick up for anyone in the market and yes, no waiting! I suppose the question is whether there is anyone in the market who wants one but did not get one. There are 5 others on carsales too that don't seem to be moving.
