Hi!

Just took delivery of a new to me 2018 718 Cayman GTS PDK with 7000 km on it, a couple of weeks ago. Although I haven´t had the chance to take it out for a long drive due to the weather, I feel that the performance of the car impresses me to this point. The PDK is wonderful, the steering is direct and the power is instant.

Looking forward to a nice spring and summer. I´m also eager to try the elimination of the "Soundaktor".

Been hanging around here for a time before my purchase. Really like the discussions and threads of this forum.

Greetings from Sweden

Vart i landet bor du, jag härjar nere i Skåne.


And no over to English, is it your first Porsche?
Disconnect the sound aktor and transform the Cayman to a different animal.
A luxury Gokart ;)

Tjena! Härjar också i Skåne, eller kommer att göra... Östra sidan. Tänkte göra Österlen osäkert i sommar :)

And yes, it´s my first Porsche although I've test driven quite a few over the years. From 981 GTS, 991.2 C4S to Turbo S. But this is the first I actually own. Also In my price range :) Didn't know what I was going to think of this 4 cylinder. But it has really surprised me on the good side! Much more fun than the 981.

Thank you! Congratulations on a very nice car! Really love the GT silver. For most part I've had darker colors on my previous cars so I'm happy with this choice. Doesn't need as much cleaning... Although its fun detailing your car.

@Iwe

Welcome to the forum. that's a lovely 718C you have there. enjoy the ride and have plenty of adventures in it!

What interior did you select? seats, colour etc
Thanks!

The interior is the GTS alcantara package I believe together with sport seats Plus. I'm the second owner so I didn't have the chance to opt it out myself. But, I'd probably go with the same spec if I'd had the chance. Also with Apple Carplay which I find really good with the touchscreen. I have Apple Carplay in my Mercedes too, but that's not as good as the one in the Porsche.

As long as you're happy that's all that matters! everyone has different opinions when it comes to interior styles anyway. I have the Sports seat plus in my 718B. they are the most comfortable seats and hold you really well. I wouldn't choose any other seat.
I have never used apple car play lol I have never owned an iPhone. I am more of an android user. but hey ho! it would be boring if we were all the same!

anyway enjoy your lovely 718C GTS and all the best from the UK

Beautiful car and spec, I agonised for months between GT Silver and agate grey. I went for grey, but would have loved either. You'll love the GTS interior, mine has worn very well and makes me feel like it's a special car whenever I get in.

Now rack up those miles and enjoy. Great choice

Thank you!

I also like the GTS interior. There's something special with it compared to the standard versions.

Love the Agate Grey. But I've had to many dark colors on my cars lately so I went with the GT Silver. And yes, I will rack up those miles:D
