Must admit it is horribly expensive but I want it, need DAB for 6Music.
I did without in my first Spyder and thought the sound was terrible, later Spyders with PCM much better and I did make use of the navigation.

CDR plus at £1k includes DAB and Sound package plus

Wow - did not realise, thanks!

This is why it's a bit of a decision between PCM and CDR +. It really does save just under £2k if you don't tick PCM - I'm leaning towards no Nav too.

In my view it really won't make much difference around resale. A non PCM car won't make £2k more than a non PCM one and let's not forget some of these will be spec'd without radio or aircon.

Plus a Sat Nav on the windscreen can make use of the free smoker's package 12v connection.

Prospective Spyder owners combining to get maximum value from the options list!

Very similar to my spec, except I decided to not go for PCM this time around.
Also wondered about the black wheels but not sure if they will date too quickly.

Platinum wheels widely regarded as best as per standard GT4 and GT3.

[ituned]

I saw a satin of satin finish black wheels at my OPC on Saturday and that's what convinced me.

[SFO]

it's annoying that door sill guard options are all illuminated and expensive!

[SHIFTY]

No folding mirrors either, but still may be interested if a slot is available.

there is no folding option on the sport design mirrors ..

on 991 GTS you can have folding mirrors, but you get the standard mirrors

* Wheels painted in satin platinum (complete) - £ 563.00

Is it me as I cant see the wheel painted option on the configurator

Help !

[Bieldside]

Sorry ! Got it now ..............

[Beaver]

Uh oh - I'm having trouble de-selecting Porsche Ceramic Composite Brake..

Madness surely.

[2010spy]

I'm not - only if you are tracking a lot?

[Beaver]

Thinking GT silver/yellow stitch and matching calipers!

[Beaver]

Or just get calipers painted yellow

[SFO]

yellows don't match ..

PCCB calipers are speed yellow, stitching is racing yellow

probably won't be obvious, but will be noticeable

[Beaver]

Ordered GT Silver / yellow stitch and paint calipers to match, satin platinum wheels.

No time frame for delivery yet, also specified the lightweight buckets, expect this will cause a delay but wait and see.

[SHIFTY]

Well I have tried all my local dealers and looks like no Spyder for me as all cars allocated, but if the Autocar report is correct there may be a GT4 version as on previous thread so LOI being drawn up now.
