Welcome Brett from another Cayman GTS member ---love the blue , but then I have owned so many blue cars my wife's last comment was , " Go ahead and get the Porsche, but don't you order blue." Darn , the sacrifices we make to get what we want even if it makes us blue, ha,ha.

Funny, left to my own tastes, I would have gone Shark Blue. My wife hated it.
Chalk was the happy compromise :)

@redmanb4 High damping of miscellaneous and extraneous vibrations, no high frequency noise/vibrations (buzz, fizz, or resonance), mental impression/sensation of a massive vault door with frictionless, mag lev bearings, smooth response to driver input, sense of robust singular zero tolerance build, and a feeling of being in total control due to clear tactile and audible feedback (both input and output) without too much gain or amplification....Thats the goal of development sport DRIVERS everywhere.

Hey all. New member here...

Name: John K.

Location: SF Bay Area, CA

Current fun cars: 1965 Shelby Cobra replica (Factory Five Roadster); 2018 Cayman GTS

Occupation: stay-at-home dad

First Porsche: 2022 Taycan Turbo S

I've been a dyed-in-the wool Ford and Shelby guy all my life but have always had a deep appreciation for Porsche's racing heritage, engineering and elegant designs. I've loved seeing them at the Monterey Historics and the Pebble Beach Concours. I recently attended the Skip Barber racing school and have done a few track days, and the track bug has bit hard, so I just picked up a 2018 Cayman GTS "track toy".
