Seen any on the street yet?



Just saw my first Cayman in Chicago (I'm amazed I haven't seen anything until now). Speed yellow, driving south on Waukegan Avenue. Nice to see from a distance, looked sharp.


Spotted any others yet?

I ordered my car 3 months ago and keep my eye out for Caymans. I haven't seen one on the road ever. I've driven from Nashville to Savannah, GA and back and from Nashville to Atlanta a few times, and from Nashville to Southern Alabama and back. Not once have I seen a Cayman S. I have seen several 911s though.

Very few indeed. I am from Vancouver, BC, Canada & travel a bit. Spotted a Silver one in LA, and this week, a Cobalt Blue one in New York, Time Square. I m picking up my Brand new Artic Silver Cayman Snext week & will be driving it around, if in Vancouver watch for it.

I was out in LA area over the weekend, and finally saw my first Cayman; an Arctic Silver on Avenida Encina in Carlsbad. In two hours of wandering downtown Laguna Beach, I saw: 4 red Ferraris, 2 black Lotus (Loti?) Exiges, too many Boxsters and Carreras to count, a few Jaguar convertibles and a brand new yellow Lamborghini (no idea which model). But nary a single Cayman. To me, California really is the 'Golden Paradise;' I saw more 'exotic' cars inthree days than I see around Harrisburg, PA, in six months.

I live in southeast LA Countyand have yet to see one on the streets. I guess this part of the country will just have to wait for mine to arrive.

I don't see too many but I hope to see more as the summer progresses. Don't be a stranger and wave!

I'm sure not all Cayman owners are CC forum members. We need to spread the word and get more people in here. The more the better!
