Possibly. Whatever the price, appears to have already gone.
I don't think it made it to Autotrader

GT Silver, Platinum Silver, Meteor.
I didn't realise GT Silver was a special order colour for the R - is it a 1-of-1 that one?

The demo car I had off OPC Swindon was GT Silver, so definitely not a one off.
I didn't think it was a special order colour, rather it was the silver 987 Cayman R's were supplied in.

Google AI suggests it was special order but you could be right.

Six of one, half a dozen of the other ...
It is a special order colour, but as stated it's also the silver they were available in.

I wonder why so few were ordered in amethyst. It looks fantastic.

I have changed the wheels to silver, think it looks much better. Matches, the graphics, intakes, mirrors and spoiler.

Because most were ordered by the dealers or Porsche GB, why give a reason for someone not to buy when you can give them resale grey/white/black.

Same with 987 Spyders and 997 GTS'.

You will need to bid for the folding buckets on Collecting Cars to complete the set. Will Ashgood ever sell a Cayman R with folding buckets actually in the car ever again? rofl
