True, If you have the space, keep them all.
But if one is better than the other, why keep the other?

Spent a bit of time in a 981 Cayman S recently so need to try the 718 S next.

Agate grey Metal, was a tough choice between that and Guards red but the sales guy whom I’ve met several times warned me that red is a very difficult colour to sell on, I was 50/50 anyway so happy to take his advice. :thumbsup:
