Cayman GT4 in decayed Martini livery

Yes, I know I've posted that picture of the Cayman GT4 before, but the last 4 days has seen it go through a complete makeover.

So what happened as a pretty standard white colour Cayman GT4:


Now looks like this:


Sorry, just had to share. Full wrap process and gallery here.

That looks fantastic!

Final pics don't look like much of an advert for the valet company though!

Looks great! I love the Cayman so much I ordered one last week. It won't be near as nice as yours though.

Thats so cool looking. I would only be worried about it looking beat up that people might not think you care for another for ding or bumper tap when parking

I think you are placing too much faith in human nature. More likely if it looks pristine it is a more attractive opportunity for a jealous or malicious individual to ruin the owner's day. If it looked beat up they wouldn't bother.

I agree about the haters but most people parallel parking in places like NYC will leave room for new cars while bumper tapping any car that looks like the owner wouldn't care

If you've ever driven/tracked a GT P-car, I don't think you would say that.

My issue with GT4 is only manual which is a pain in traffic and PDK can shift faster than any human on track.

It's a fun car though.

I guess I'm the only one who thinks it looks stupid. Martini Livery looks good on the Williams F1 cars, not so much here. I prefer a clean looking car.

But that's just me, I've been wrong before.

That looks pretty cool. I like the lines and proportions of the Cayman but for me, Porsche is all about a 911.
