Cayman GT4 delivery and photos thread

Is there a way to block a thread? My jealousy is in overdrive and I fear may make me do stupid things if I keep reading it!
Great pics though, really is a good looking car. I honestly think Porsche have the wheel/arch look just right and the huge red/yellow calipers just finish the look... Pay attention BMW!

I picked up my GT4 yesterday morning. Excellent service and handover from Steve and Richard at Colchester. I drove the black car at PEC on Thursday so had some idea of what was coming but nothing beats the buzz of seeing your own car for the first time.
Had a good couple of hours driving the B roads around Finchingfield. The car is made for those tight, twisty sections and I can't wait to take it down to some of the S Wales roads that I know well. I didn't notice the gearing to be much of a problem but felt there may have been a bit of understeer (but could all be in my mind given that others have mentioned this).I was so keen to get out and drive that I forgot to ask about the ARB settings. Anyone know the factory settings?
Interior is superb, as expected, and the LWB's look and feel excellent. I went for carbon, full leather and some additional alcantara and very happy with that decision as it makes the cabin feel very special.
The car is a joy to drive - the gearshift is as slick as everyone says, it handles superbly, can carry impressive speed into corners, great brake feel, very responsive on the throttle, etc. The clutch is a bit on the heavy side, but only becomes a problem in stop-start traffic (the drive back into Central London was not great!). One thing I am happy about is that even though the front spoiler is low it was fine over speedbumps and cleared the ramp down into our underground parking space!
Anyway, enough talk. Here's some photos
