The best of both worlds. How on earth will you choose which one to take out? :?:

Delivery man for sure.

They will both fit but only have space really for one, so the GTS is likely to have to live on the drive for a while.

Cayman is PDK so that is for comfortable and easy but enjoyable driving - can take to the supermarket.
GT3 is manual so that will be for fine weather (well maybe this weekend I will make an exception) and "on it" driving.

That's the thinking...no idea on the reality ;)

Seems like you have a thing for colour co-ordinated Porsches, Virage!

Two Sapphires in your avatar.

Now two Agates. :)

I'd agree that Agate Grey is classy. Gives your GT3 a nice combination of serious sportiness & elegant class. 8-)

That was my thinking with the Macan, but now that I've got it I'm really uncomfortable parking it in supermarket car parks and similar. It's dink city in those places and I like the thing too much for that. So I bought a Smart car. You can easily get a Smart in that garage with the GT3. :D

Good point. Almost bought an old Mini last year which would easily fit and still leave plenty of space for bicycles :roll:

They look amazing. It’s funny how there has been so much negativity about Agate as a colour on this forum with regard to the Macan. Yet, they look fab on both of those cars! My neighbour has an Agate Macan which to my eye looks good too.

Silly question I know but why get them both at the same time? Getting one new car is exciting enough but two at the same time would leave me very torn about which to drive at any time.

They were never meant to come at the same time...I ordered the GTS a while ago and at the time, the OPC thought GTS deliveries would start in December or Jan...but they slipped in the latter part of last year to late Jan build hence the 1st March delivery. When I was offered a GT3 allocation, the OPC thought probably April...but that came forward to Jan build.

Bonus now though it the two reg plates match :oops:
