Looking good -any rear shots went for the black 718 logo myself, hopefully mine is only a few weeks away now, just a pity tomorrow's forecast not great

That's the only back shot I have...

Was told tonight that any new orders will be delivered in 2018!

Looking good bud smile would have had the bucket seats myself but my garage is pretty narrow tried the demo inside it and was a tight squeeze getting out with standard seats so opted for sports plus instead

Looks great; you're in NI aren't you? Maybe see out on the road - I've only seen one 718 Cayman in the metal so far.

Thanks...

Thought I would stick a few photos up as my spec is pretty different to most on here.

It's now autoglym lifeshine @ £399...

They know me better...

Even the gap insurance refusal was a breeze!!

Taking it with the company advertising on piston heads. Great cover at a good price by the look of it.

Looks terrific. Hard to beat a white one I think , esp with the black wheels , buckets and red belts with alu trim , but I am biased!

Looks absolutely fab, congratulations! I love those seats - might have to see what's left in the piggy bank as I get closer to locking my spec down!

OP .
The seats look identical to the ones fitted to my 987/981 Spyders the only difference I can see is the alcantara inserts .Can you confirm if they have height adjustment on then or not?

Thanks for that ..so they are the same as fitted to the Spyders Good seats but can be a tad uncomfortable on long journeys .
Being short 5.8" I have to put the seat all the way back to get out and in.
Enjoy nice looking car
