Ah, is that Crayon? I think that's a lovely colour
Looks White to me.Thank you very much. I think I’ve gone for a slightly unusual spec with the crayon leather and carbon fibre interior. But it’s an all round car for me. Hence the slightly more luxurious (IMO) interior choice.

It’s crayon though admittedly it comes out very light in this picture. The colour changes quite a lot depending on the lighting aroun the car. For some reason though cameras always seem to show it a few shades lighter than it is.

You should be very pleased with that colour/spec. It's really gorgeous.Thank you very much. I think I’ve gone for a slightly unusual spec with the crayon leather and carbon fibre interior. But it’s an all round car for me. Hence the slightly more luxurious (IMO) interior choice.

I know what you mean re the colour in the pics. It looks much nicer in the flesh in crayon, slightly darker and more grey, than it does in the pics. It's a really lovely colour.Thank you very much.

Just got the car back from detailers, suprise how white my car is (carrera white metalic) compare to alpine white on the M4. 350miles and starting to drive a little more playful and it makes me smile how i always in powerband when taking the twisties, and how capablenthe chasis is! Engine noise is LOUD and sound like a angry lion! Youtube video’s doesnt do the engine sound any justice!

How are you finding the driving experience compared to the M4?
M4 Sounds nicer, but big, it handles well but it’s big! the cayman handling is different league, Lighter and more nimble more like a Go Kart, very fun. The M4 much more complicated with all the settings availble, i get kangaroo jumping on the gears, very annoying and have to be very careful not to kill yourself from the explosion of torque!undred orse said:
Well mine is back at the OPC on a trailer. I've done 300 miles and had it 2 weeks and its got an oil leak.
Don't know yet and won't until next week what is wrong with it or how long it will take to fix.
Gutted doesn't cover it.
Well a year after rejecting my first gts after the opc wanted the engine and transmission out and a remanufactured transmission put in I’ve bought another one. This time in crayon with some black bits - side intakes and sport design- the gts interior with red stitching and more or less the same options as the rejected one. I saw it in the showroom and couldn’t resist. Don't know yet and won't until next week what is wrong with it or how long it will take to fix.

Hopefully this time there’ll be no problems and so far the new opc I’m now dealing with have been first class.

This is a very accurate summary. I’ve got a m4 competition pack And totally agree. Hammer v scalpel. Gassing Station | Boxster/Cayman | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
