Congratulations! As a fellow RY 981 Cayman owner I commend you on your colour choice! Just too many black, white, and silver sports cars in the world. Sports car colours for sports cars!

Says the man with cars in two of the best Porsche colors! (Yes, colors, not colours. We speak 'Merican here!)

Very nice. Love the color and the wheels. Which ones are those by the way? Reminds me of my old boxster.

I have to say, I don't think yellow works on many cars. On the 981 Cayman...it absolutely works!
Congrats and enjoy.

@aussie jimmy - my escort redline has been delivered and I use it religiously, already saved my bum bum..

@hs663gt3 - yes, yellow calipers, will look very nice, I wld have loved yellow seatbelts and yellow on the instrument panel (whatever its called)

@mdrobc1213 - those are Carrera Classic wheels painted black 20"

And thank you again for all the nice compliments.
I absolutely love the car, handling, the engine sound after i turn on the sport mode (I call it the "Fun Button"), it's great. Super stable in turns, and yes, catches attention.
If anyone is up to driving on Topanga Canyon this weekend let me know.

Hot! I've heard that the yellow was "borrowed" from a particular Ferrari yellow--not precisely but close. It saves you $710 over most colors, looks great, and leaves a little more cash for some of those other goodies. If I were young I think I would have gone with the yellow. I'm not. (Sapphire blue).

Weird how very much better the overpriced fancy steering wheel ($490 extra with PDK paddles) looks compared with the standard steering wheel. Good photo! Porsche knows it--that's why they hit us so hard for that sport steering wheel. Like you, I just bent over and paid it. It looks so much better (and the paddles are more fun than the tiny buttons that come stock). Congratulations!
