Picking up my first new Porsche Cayman tomorrow and I'm so excited I can't sleep. It's 12.24 am in Australia and I'm wide awake. Taking the day off work tomorrow to pick up my jet black metallic 718. Been driving SUVs for the last 20 years and it's time for a car I actually want ;)

Welcome to the community! Even two years after acquiring our 718 Boxster and one year after acquiring our 718 Cayman S, I still go out to the garage every night just to, you know, check on them. I'm still amazed and humbled that I get to drive these beauties.

Enjoy your new ride! You're going to love it. Pics!!
Thanks so much for your kind words. I drove it all afternoon and I can't express how good it is. What a car!

I know the feeling. I collected my Boxster in December after a long and tortuous wait. Enjoy!

Thank you. I can't imagine what it would be like to wait 6+ months like many people have to endure. I only had to wait a few days

I would be collecting my Cayman S in two weeks but for the 'rona bug. Freeze was in April 2020, and a week before I cancelled because the freakout was sky high. No idea if I could do the Euro Delivery in EOM June. Tried to order one LAST April 2019. But Taycan orders said buzz off to any Cayman allocations last fall. So now I'm trying to get a fall 2020 allocation, of which there are none. Looking like Euro Delivery in May 2021 is my potential reality. THAT's a wait! :eek:

Murphy's Law in full effect. That's akin to torture 🤣
