Cayman GTS - Page 379 - Boxster/Cayman - PistonHeads UK

Well I can afford it . http://www.porsche-code.com/PF2LUA85 What do you think?

I would add exterior package in high gloss black, so the plastic bits are painted

For me, what makes the GTS stand out is the alcantara with red stitching.

Spoke to OPC and I could have their first car as they haven't had their allocation yet. Carmine red and black wheels may be added and I agree re the interior so may change that. Anyone else going for one?

Zyp said: For me, what makes the GTS stand out is the alcantara with red stitching. The configurator is very cheeky on that though. The stitching is no cost, but requires the "GTS interior package" at over £2k to be accepted in order to spec it. With coloured instrument dials too, so red stitching mandates carmine red instrument dials. Bit of a fail from me for that one I fear.

This is what I'd like - in reality I'd probably have the sports seats though. (Unless I lost a few kg's in lard..) http://www.porsche-code.com/PF1VDP11

Love the Carmine red - very similar to the BMW Imola, which we had many years ago. I also remember having a blast in a then new Carmine Cayenne GTS with alcantara interior - thought it was soup-herb. Unfortunately, I probably can't justify spending £63k on a weekend car, when I have a perfectly useable one in the garage.

I'm definitely in the very interested category - manual and no PCM for me and aiming to keep it under £60k. Carmine Red and either platinum or black wheels look tremendous IMO, but at £2k+ there may be other options I need more. There are some pretty highly specced ex-demo cars available, but I think the GTS is special enough to justify buying new.

This would be my way to go, let an OPC spec up a GTS to epic spec then pick it up for a cheeky discount offer.

Prob with ex demo cayman r is the dealers speced them all wrong.

I am waiting for PTS to be available and will then likely order one in Fashion Grey or Riviera Blue. I like white but fancy something different this time. Paying around £1k more for PTS than the 'special' metallics makes it reasonable value in my myopic eyes

If I were to use Porsche finance could I expect a discount or a few free extras?

mrdemon said: Prob with ex demo cayman r is the dealers speced them all wrong. Yes, some of the dealers did spec them without buckets etc, but some did order demo cars with excellent specifications. Never let the truth get in the way of a good generalisation though ....

My issue is that you can pick up a 997.2 gt3 for 75k. And that one won't depreciate.

rosino said: My issue is that you can pick up a 997.2 gt3 for 75k. And that one won't depreciate. I take your point but I'm not buying the car as an investment. ....

For those who just want photos, here's how I ordered mine: http://imgur.com/a/Re3ge For those who want the spec, here it is: http://www.porsche-code.com/PF8I9547 This is a track car, but I still don't see PCCB being worth the initial cost and cost of replacing those rotors over the Big Reds. Yes, PDK, because it's faster. A bit of tinsel and uprated stereo for when I'm stuck in traffic. Wish we got the carbon fiber buckets in the US. Will be driving this for the next 30 years.

Goofnik said: Will be driving this for the next 30 years. ...... you are joking right?

It's a Porsche. I hope I don't get bored of it like an econobox.

Nice spec, congratulations.....

Carmine red, looking like the new white?

ebbwboy said: Carmine red, looking like the new white? But not available on other Boxsters or Caymans, so will be nowhere near as common as white.

It looks stunning in the flesh, there was a Cayenne GTS in that colour at Wilmslow OPC last time I was there, looked really good.

rosino said: My issue is that you can pick up a 997.2 gt3 for 75k. And that one won't depreciate. Which is ok if you want a track car which costs £1.5k a day to run on track or a poor road car for every one else there are a lot of better choices for normal use :-)

mrdemon said: Which is ok if you want a track car which costs £1.5k a day to run on track or a poor road car for every one else there are a lot of better choices for normal use :-) Very unfair.

MrD lets himself down with all the GT3 slating. It's self-evidently an excellent car, even if some people (including me) would prefer a Cayman R or a Spyder. The GTS is a very different proposition. It is simply an S with a body kit and lots of options. A bloody good car but not a direct competitor to an 997 GT3 or even a Cayman R (although more so the latter).

The GTS is a very different proposition. It is simply an S with a body kit and lots of options. A bloody good car but not a direct competitor to an 997 GT3 or even a Cayman R (although more so the latter). I agree that's exactly why I like it. The Cayman is a stunning car in whichever guise and this one is a bit different in a way that suits me.

NBTBRV8 said: mrdemon said: Which is ok if you want a track car which costs £1.5k a day to run on track or a poor road car for every one else there are a lot of better choices for normal use :-) Very unfair. A GT3 is only a poor road car on a poor road or in traffic. The issue is that much of the UK road network is pretty poor. The counter is - do you really want to drive fast in anything over bumps and potholes, and further to this: simple size of the footprint on the road actually makes a hot hatch a better choice for all practical applications. What to buy is simply a matter of where your balance of compromises lies. What cannot be disputed is that a Cayman makes a much more compelling case than a GT3 if it is to be your only car or if you plan to commute in it in traffic. This is why a ludicrously high proportion of GT3 drivers also own a BMW, Merc or Volkswagen.

NBTBRV8 said: Very unfair. not really, why bring up a GT3 in a GTS thread and also what's unfair about my statement, I never post on GT3 threads either these days,but to bring up a bloody GT3 is the bee all and end all car is stupid. GT3 boys keep to GT3 threads and every one is happy.

Let's face it all Porsche cars are brilliant in their own way and that also depends on our personal preferences and needs. Having had a Cayman for the weekend it is the perfect Porsche for me. I've always loved the GT 3 but they just don't suit my requirements even though I have three cars and. Motor bike

BubblesNW said: Which one mrdi@khead

Children! Let's all behave and talk about the GTS. I just worked out that I will want a new car in about 3-4 years, at which point I will probably have the choice of (1) a used GTS and (2) a new Cayman R. Now that will be a hard decision! Assuming a price difference of, what, about 30k, the GTS might win even if the R is excellent. (I have decided that I dont want a 993 or a 997 after all - my wife can have a sensible car and leave me with the toy :-))

Blimey! Had an old play on the GTS cornfeeguraytor just for fun as one does and... http://www.porsche-code.com/PF416EZ2 P.S. Is it ever possible for the yellow PCCB callipers to be OEM painted i.e. to 'match the interior leather Sir'? ...gets back to work...

£73k - you must have specced every option available. Imagine the depreciation on that.

Trev450 said: £73k - you must have specced every option available. Imagine the depreciation on that. My 987 Cayman S was specced by a very generous OPC manager as his company car for 16 months at a RRP just under £72k - PDK, PCCB, LSD, buckets, PSE, full leather, PCM3, etc, etc. I bought it in April 2012 and yes, they took a massive hit on depreciation, just shows how much they make on options to be able to afford the hit.

Anyone ele feeling pretty short changed by the use of the GTS badge? With the 997 GTS you got proper add ons like the c4 body, power kit ( different manifold, not just a remap) , one bolt wheels (I know, I know) and the alcantara upgrade. Plus suspension tweaks I think? For the 981 , the upgrades feel pretty minor or, in the case of the 'gts interior', aren't even standard!

981 gts porsche marketing at its best!did they hold back the power(less than spyder/r) on the 981 to bring out the normal increase in power of a previous generation.ie 987.1 runout model cayman sport/rs60 304 hp then new 987.2 310/320hp.spyder/r 320/330hp then down on power for new 981 315/325hp but realigned gts 330/340hp which imho the 981 should have been given in the first place!

Agreed. All it does is offer part of the power the engine is already easily capable of. Plus a few additional cosmetic options. And it force feeds you a bunch of expensive "options". The bundled discount on the options is peanuts, even if you actually want most / all of them. I do like the black brushed aluminium interior trim available (same as on the 991 50th anniversary), but heck... even that is c. GBP800 to change on standard trim. 981 GTS? Bof.

can't help thinking that this is a response to the f-type coupe.

Had a brief chat with a salesman this morning. They want a 10% deposit for a June/July delivery. Don't know if I'm completely sold - there are a few S available that would have been £60k plus available for prices between 50 and 52k.

For me there is really something special about buying a new car.

HokumPokum said: can't help thinking that this is a response to the f-type coupe. Went to look at an S today - would cost about £4k more for a better specced Jag than Cayman

Zyp said: Went to look at an S today - would cost about £4k more for a better specced Jag than Cayman Mmm... Or £10k less at least if you don't go for the S. They are quite an attractive package.

I could have waited but decided to take a stock S from OPC Solihull. Got a decent discount and the car months earlier than a GTS. The only thing I think it would have over mine apart from the additional power is cosmetic. I've noticed some new options for example gloss window frames, high beam assist for headlights and a reversing camera though.

rob.kellock said: Mmm... Or £10k less at least if you don't go for the S. They are quite an attractive package. With the brochure now in my hand - an incredibly attractive package indeed. Would have to be the S coupe for me. Nothing less. Italian Racing Red, Cirrus performance seats. Job jobbed.

I ordered my CS from Solihull and chose to wait four months for a 14 reg.... Wait was too long and dealer knew I was too keen so discount was abysmal! All it did was give me more time to add more options LOL

Sold my C4S to the first person who came to look at it, a nice family who has bought a really nice car. I've had another go at sorting a spec for the new Cayman - thoughts.... http://www.porsche-code.com/PF1LI4H6

Looks a nice spec, but I'd still go for the GTS alcantara interior. Also, perhaps front parking sensors and rear camera aren't necessary ? 2 zone a/c - have it in the Alpina and not sure it's really worth extra. Certainly save you a few quid, but if that's what you want then go for it.

It does look rather nice though I have to say

It's very hard not to look at a year old basic 991 with 350bhp though if you are in the market for a new cayman.

Why? Heavier, slower car. (I will buy a 911 when I have a baby, but once the performance advantsge goes, it's a marginally worse car than a Cayman except for having back seats.)

I've been playing with the configurator. I quite like the spec I have come up with but of course welcome thoughts from more experienced Porsche people with regard to what is and isn't considered a must have or preferred option, for whatever reasons. Of course, one must buy what one wants, but no harm in seeking information. http://www.porsche-code.com/PFI8YSJ7

ORD said: Why? Heavier, slower car. (I will buy a 911 when I have a baby, but once the performance advantsge goes, it's a marginally worse car than a Cayman except for having back seats.) the 911 is a faster car you might find... 0-60 4.4 vs the Cayman 4.8 top speed 178 vs the cayman 175 0-100 mph 9.7 vs the Cayman 10.6 est as no gts figure but the S is 10.7) SO the basic 911 is faster in every way, and in gear times.

I know it is nice getting a new car and the Cayman GTS is very nice but surely £70k would be much better spent on a 997 GT3, you might even get a gen 2 around £70k with a bit of a haggle? Better car, much less depreciation and faster.

No arguments about the GT3, but I really don't like that great big boot spoiler - I prefer to be more subtle I am looking for a car that my wife is comfortable driving as well as providing me with some fun. She is a more sedate driver than me and prefers an automatic. I prefer manual, but having driven a PDK Cayman S I am happy with it, and so was she. So this will be a car we can both drive, rather than the current one that she really doesn't like driving at all.

AlexNJ89 said: TDT said: Yep. That’s my old car mate. I was the first owner. Factory order from New in 2014. I ordered from Reading and also sold it back to them when changing to GT4. It then went to OPC Portsmouth, where is was bought by second owner who got in touch with me. He then sold to Ashgood few weeks back, and then went to Paragon I guess. I covered about 22k in it as my daily in just about 2.5years. Mainly station, airport as I worked internationally and in the city’s, and obviously fun drives. Frikin’ loved it... proper weapon with PDK, PTV/LSD and X73. Any Qs let me know. Second owner added some little bits i believe, GTS badges and carbon entry sills. I ordered it debadged and it had standard entry stills. Would love to see it again. Held its value well too. Edited by TDT on Saturday 12th June 10:12 I saw this car on Pistonheads as it is fantastic looking and I was wondering who specced the car because it was such a strange spec given it had the carbon sills but not front parking sensors. They didn't list X73 in the ad so I thought it was missing PASM, also no front parking sensors, I don't trust myself in tight spacing. I think X73 would've been too firm for me on the daily. Hope the new owner enjoys the car! TDT - is this the same car advertised at RPM now? I've put a deposit down on it for 2 reasons 1) For track day fun 2) Top stop the incessant GT3 searching. :-)

Lol, yep it arrived in yesterday. Weirdly… I happened to be there (browsing!) when it arrived. Still lovely. Nice to know it will be down the road again. Edited by TDT on Wednesday 12th January 16:35

It’s £61k ffs ! Who cares how shiny the door shuts are or aren’t - that is the wrong price

squirdan said: It’s £61k ffs ! Who cares how shiny the door shuts are or aren’t - that is the wrong price well yes it is pricey but it has 20k's worth of options and is spanking clean.

Mine was pretty similar to that but an X73/Manual car, rest of the spec/colour was pretty much the same. It has 22K miles, and I was the 2nd owner, sold it for 8K less privately. I think that would sell for high 50's poss.

Not a chance when 10k more now see's you get into a GTS 4.0, so its been detailed? Woopeeedoo I think would be my response.

julian987R said: well yes it is pricey but it has 20k's worth of options and is spanking clean. Mine has £20k plus of extras and was £10k less near enough, confession it does have thirty thousand more miles . It's a gorgeous edition but I doubt it will sell for that. I have a slight distrust of cars that have been too pampered, like a boxer who spends the off-season on the couch, feel the car will not be used to rigorous driving

I think the 981 GTS market is stronger for Boxster variants because of lack of supply of the 718, but both are holding good value - especially considering the price of them was £55-60k new in 2014. I recently picked up a 981 BGTS and it is lovely, so much so I cancelled my 718 BGTS order and swapped it into a Cayman (and immediately got a build slot for December). The 981 sounds lovely, in fact probably a bit too loud on occasion but it's a lovely thing and I think (hope) prices will remain strong for some time. A lot of the 718 orders won't get fulfilled. That yellow one above is a lovely thing though, rare colour on those cars. The thing also to consider is a new Cayman GTS is nearer £80k now when 'essential' options are added, so the delta can be pretty large.

anonymous said: [redacted] Being private it might be harder to shift, but JH had a 4K mile low spec on up at 58 - Sold. Like I said mine sold 53 which alot more miles. It just needs someone after a low mileage high spec GTS and that will sell around 57/58.

julian987R said: Check out how immaculate this one is, incredible https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-details/202206166... I think that's the only 981 GTS I've seen with the new style steering wheel. Has that been retrofitted?

Not sure, it's the multi function wheel which I think was an option on the 981. Don't know what it looked like though, mine had the standard three spoke/silver wheel.

Don’t think so, ‘that’ one had the gloss black wheels with the polished edge. Could have been changed though. I believe the one you’re referring to has an interesting history.

Jefferson Steelflex said: Don’t think so, ‘that’ one had the gloss black wheels with the polished edge. Could have been changed though. I believe the one you’re referring to has an interesting history. if its the same car, it ticked all the boxes for me other than it looked to have lowering springs on, I spoke to the garage selling it, must be close to 2 years ago, i think at the time it was up at mid or late £40-s , I must have caught the sales guy on a bad day he was proper ars*y with me so I left it. I actually bought something else but kept looking for a nice 981 Gts and I Noticed it taken of sale a few times and relisted over the last 18 months, I wasn't sure if it was sales tactics or they just kept selling it and getting it back,noticed it back again at I think £55k earlier this year, then a month or so ago It was back again closer to £50k. It always had the plates covered so I was unable to do a history check on it but the spec was fantastic and the car looked tidy,would be interested in hearing, if you knew anything about it.

It’s a classic case of right car wrong garage (not a Porsche specialist) and being in a fairly remote place north of Aberdeen prob didn’t help It’s a 2 owner car - first owner had it for 5 years and did some mods - which despite the paperwork being there were misdescribed on adverts. It had gone to Centre Gravity for geo who fitted H&R anti roll bars. Suspension itself is OEM X73 option, not lowered, although that option is lower than PASM of course. It was for sale for a while at a small dealer in Elgin and was then raffled in one of these online competitions . I think they used a bit of poetic licence when they described it… claimed 400bhp and lowered suspension. Nice result for 2nd owner, £4.50 a ticket …He kept it a year Has every service receipt (all 4 at OPC) every mot, all other docs etc and was sitting on 6mm N rated Michelins all round. Someone claimed on a forum ages ago the pccbs were shot (or chipped) so as well as getting it serviced at the dealers expense I got Porsche Aberdeen to do a 111pt check and a load of other stuff , Rev ranges & specifically a report on the brakes. Discs are like new, none of that crazing you sometimes see, and rear pads are 25pc worn, probably due to the effect of PTV. First owner could have had it remapped by DMS as they also supplied an exhaust, but it is now entirely standard and let’s be honest not much you can really do to an N/A engine anyway. Did it see the track? Probably, but it’s like when you read at advert that says “never driven in the rain…a GT3 that has never been on the track… etc etc”. As a subsequent owner you can never really know Net net, with that spec (mega. List was £75k) and a price sub £50k Porsche serviced, warrantied and frankly looking like a new car (ppf) I thought it was worth the trip. Ashgood just sold a bgts for £48k I think, white, fairly ordinary spec, same miles. And they sell cars quickly as they are generally quite cheap relative With a 981 spyder at £72k+ this is in essence the same car (both have X73) with a few bhp less, for 33pc less money That was my man maths anyway!

was the spec that caught my attention, I wanted a BGTS as a road car, I called and was told the original exhaust , dampers and arbs were not present, I do recall the 400bhp upgrade advertised, I asked if it had upgrade throttle body cams or anything else but I got the impression it was a number plucked out of the sky. On paper it looked a dream spec, I previously had a 981 Spyder but the manual gearbox and faffy roof were negatives for me, that car was as close to what I have seen a car that I would have specced myself new. Great to hear it is all good, by the time I talked myself into calling up again about it, it was sold and I ended up with a similar car, just lacking buckets which wasn't a deal breaker for me having had them in the Spyder , I found the lack of adjustment hard work on long journeys.

Nice car I got the wheels redone in satin platinum as part of the deal…so we match Buckets I know what you mean, but I liked them in my old cayman R

Absolutely brilliant car and look forward to using it as intended! -Agate Grey -X73 suspension -PCCBs -Carbon Bucket Seats (heated) -Burmester -PDLS+ Previously owned a 987 Cayman S with some engine issues, hence Porsche Warranty was top of the list for this purchase! Congrats. What a fantastic example, except for the manual box! Personally prefer PDK but that is an incredible car. Enjoy.

Late to the game but congrats - hope you've been enjoying the car! Pretty much the same spec as mine, minus the buckets. How are you finding the X73?

Lots of options but a couple of significant omissions including heated seats and dual climate which I suspect would turn some off from paying the premium.

Lovely car but £5-7k over priced in current market and without those heated seats and duel climate could be a deal breaker for some. think i would go for this, same price: https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-details/202301022... Edited by Captrik787 on Monday 30th January 17:40

Edited by Captrik787 on Monday 30th January 17:40 it is a very great deal. think that in Europe it is impossible to find a 991 TARGA with left-hand drive for less than £80,000 (but you can find a 981 GTS for 59000£)
