Cayman GT4 delivery and photos thread

[seawise]

Couldn't decide on seats, so no seats.....

Seats in....

Nearly identical plate to my base Cayman which I collect later this week; yours is quite a bit higher spec.

Why did you remove the seats?

[seawise]

All done, homeward bound - 55 miles later, tucked up with 996 RS, early days for impressions but certainly feels like a lovely roadcar.

You have to in order to fit the harnesses. The harness comes in a box from the factory, as does the fire extinguisher

My dealer has so far 6 confirmed deliveries, mine was their first, another in the workshop ready to go. One in Nov, Dec, Jan and March - no promises of any additional slots and they aren't especially optimistic. They had 11 991 GT3s....

From the pictures above, can you have the harness's without the cage. It would appear that they are not connected to the cage?

Cheers

+1 wondering the same.
Also if not mounted to cage, are the mount points there in all cars or CS only?
Thanks.

Ah, so you can have the roll cage and race seats without the harnesses, without needing to remove them, even on the drivers side?

Congrats Seawise on a stunning looking car.DBM was my original clear favourite on configurater esp with yellow calipers,switched to guards red after my salesman said dark blue not a good colour on GT Porsches.After seeing your photos wish i never asked salesman for an opinion on a purely personal subjective matter! How are you finding the PCCB's as my GT4 arriving next month has them.

Club sport option gets u cage, extinguisher and drivers harness - only the cage is fitted during build. Others delivered in a box, for the dealer to fit if so instructed. I don't believe the harnesses require a cage, but of course whether Porsche will sell one without the other, I couldn't say.

Would the harness attachment points only be on CS specified cars?

I'm assuming the dealer will fit the harness upon request prior to delivery at no cost?

Love the colour. Nice choice.

Snap, I swapped to Guards red when I got cold feet over the initial order of blue, then I switched back when my girlfriend couldn't understand why I don't order what I wanted. It's a 'marmite' choice I accept, but I like it's understated classy look. Also pal of mine is getting GR and couldn't steal his moment, as GR also looks mega I think. I have very similar dark metallic blue on my daily driver C63 AMG wagon and I really like it.

Too early to say on PCCB, but the black PEC car had them and they felt great, and I have had PCCB on GT3s in the past with no issues (and they were extensively tracked).

Quite a brave decision. Yellow calipers on a red car.
