Hello, I am Cash - (middle name) and I found this forum while looking for information on my soon to be new Porsche.

Current fun cars: A 2000 BMW M roadster with 148K one owner miles, 2008 BMW 328 convertible, owned since new, both bmws going to a new home to open garage space for the New 2023 Cayman GTS I will get at the factory in March. Also have a 500LC which sounds better than any car should be allowed.... a true GT. And a 2004 BMW K1200GT - awesome long distance bike....

Have owned Porsches since my first one in 1983 - a 914, followed by a 356, early 911, 83 911SC, 84 Targa, 85.5 944...
And that is just the Porsches. The GTS will be my LAST new car, I am sure. Have been wanting to do factory delivery since watching a friend do it in 1977....

Retired after 40+ years of military and government service, former military pilot, and fun seeking grandfather...
Lots of folks have great knowledge of the Cayman and I hope to learn a bit before taking delivery of this awesome 4.0 GTS.

Welcome to Carpokes! I’ve owned my 2022 Cayman GTS for a bit over a year. I drove BMWs and Audis since 1977. The GTS is my first Porsche and I love it. Feel free to send me a PM and I’ll give you my contact info if you have any questions about the GTS.

BTW, our good friends live in Ponte Vedra Beach. In September, we joined them for a trip to Italy.
Thanks,
Larry

My 23' GTS is coming in the Adventurine Green colour, with a leather interior - Expresso and Cognac. I saw the same combination on a Turbo in Monterey earlier this year during Pebble Beach, and it was stunning. The Mrs. even liked it, so an easy choice over the standard GTS interior. I also opted for the five spoke wheels - a throwback to my early 911SC with Fuchs... Should be an awesome combination, looking forward to many smiles in her....

Sounds like a great spec! Espresso and Cognac are just so rich and regal. Welcome to Carpokes, and sincere thanks for your service to our country.

This combo will look great. I was going AGM, stop sale on that colour in Canada, so I moved to Chalk.
