A friend picked up his new 718 GTS Cayman yesterday.
Also blue but different shade.
He’s as happy as a pig in shit.

Couldn't resist the colour contrast for this photo.

First impressions after a glorious bank holiday weekend: Extremely rapid; phenomenal grip, balance inspires huge confidence, noise is perfectly acceptable given it is a flat four. A long hot weekend and a new sports car make for a very happy man. The colour certainly attracts plenty of attention!

Just booked Le Mans Classic in July and will be going in this.

Yes, I would agree with your comments. Mine (albeit not a GTS) is a daily driver and it is simply superb. The noise complaints are grossly over-exaggerated in my opinion. What I love is the torque - full power available from 1950rpm. It makes for a very, very easy and fast drive. In any gear, prod the toe down and you're away at warp speed (well, up to 70 mph at least...)!
