Apologies

I know it's the PCCB's if I ditched those and changed the stitching to red (obviously) it's a nicely spec'd car without being over the top!

Included heated seats and folding buckets - thinking about the wife.... http://www.porsche-code.com/PG1J4MG4

I should have jumped on the Romans car earlier.... Took me longer than I thought to convince the commander in chief!

I'm sure others will get flipped - I agree that long term these will be a good bet depreciation wise and as such if overs are reasonable they should work out cheaper than a cooking 718 / 911

Tell me about it......

The Romans car was on for 77k

Started at £84950......the few good spec ones with pcm that have appeared at OPCs even with comfort seats sold quite quickly at ap £89950. So its clearly the absence of pcm which was the problem.

Shame the configurator is no longer available this is my best guess from memory but if I've missed anything obvious please shout out!

White or GT

Platinum or black wheels

Steel or carbon brakes

Buckets either one don't mind

Leather with contrast stitching

Dual AC

Auto dimming lights

Carbon interior

Wind deflector

CD-R+

Mobile prep

My car!!

Wow! that is one heavy spec car PG2PW4L2 nearly 25% over base price if you include RT .The PCCB I do not think necessary unless track work is on owners mind +side your wheels will never get brake dust

The PG1J4MG4 car are the yellow belts a mistake as all the rest inc pulls stitching are red. I suppose it is all down to ones own preferences wont have to make that decision.

I agree with most on price can see the cars value being strong at least for the first year and could even rise who knows any Mystic Meggs out there.

As to numbers was told by a few dealers will be low in comparison to the GT4 One had 15 to 4 the other 12 to 3 .

Now don't go telling me you haven't specified PCM?

Epic early morning blast up the highest road in the UK. It was all going amazingly well until the traction control light started coming on in 6th gear.

Spyder was so impressive on the wet roads, not so good on the snow covered ones!

What a great looking car

Massive oversight from me on that one changed interior from yellow to red whe changing the brakes but forgot to change the belts.....

Revised spec below! If anyone has a similar spec and looking to sell I would be keen to chat!

Not sure about that colour personally but I'm loving the stance - it looks slammed!

( can you say that without sounding Max Power?)

Not my choice on the Spyder but I'd take it!

You are right.....my spec without cdr.... plus PCM ....

[griffgrog]

There's a nice specced one at Silverstone OPC. Anyone seen it?

Mine!

This looks really good, it was one of my spec choices. I changed it to black in the end as changing my white GTS for the Spyder

[Z4MPO]

What price have people got up too on their final specification? I cannot change mine now, but spent ages with PCCB....do i....there expensive....could be a keeper.....could be worth more.....its expensive.....will i feel the benefit....!! I actually ended up with them, but suspect some of that was for aesthetics

I keep thinking I went too mad with the configurator at £76k for a Boxster! Make me feel better....

Sorry , £K71.3 - but hey listen , they are absolutely awesome brakes (not sure you need them on the Spyder though) , so don't worry and enjoy them - keep thinking :

Unsprung weight advantage
No brake dust
Simply bloody amazing looking things
Rare (on a Spyder)

Enjoy

I was thinking that too, and knowing what they charge on top that must have literally been handed back to the OPC at very little markup..... Can't think why anyone would do that?
