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 yikespaperbag

I keep thinking I went too mad with the configurator at £76k for a Boxster! Make me feel better....
Mine is £66.5K. I still have a 10 days to make changes if I want!

Ah you spotted it I was just about to put the link on for you smile

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!

Proper dedication that - well done smile
That is certainly an impressive effort, full 'legend' status could have been achieved with the roof down though !!

Why are there so many with the sport seats? That would put me right off.

Good looking car though.

As with the GT4, I think there was a period when the buckets weren't available.

You'd be surprised by how many spec them by choice. Loads of the previous Spyder model have sport seats.

Decided to go with GT silver and the classic interior.

Has anybody ever seen a red roof rather than black?

Brave choice , but does look rather individual.

Never an option. Always black.

Inspired choice that - I will let you know what I think of mine when it arrives and I'll let you know if I've made a mistake - however , I think we're going to be fine smile

Yep buckets are a must! The hippo car is a good spec but can't resolve myself to the grey!

Quite like the Agate/Satin Black Hippo car. Not a colour I'd choose if I was specifying new but it wouldn't put me off if I was looking at a used one.

There's the Bristol OPC White with Classic interior?

Agate looks great on the Spyder : It's a really nice colour in real life very deep and rich - a little like the classic 911 Slate (Steve McQueen grey)
However , I don't like it with the black wherls - these look better : (also PCCB's and Agate really work well together )

has that one just come up ? I didn't see it when I was looking , its a very nice spec and other than colour of wheels that was pretty much bang on what I was after !

quite surprised they can get away without putting a price on the website ?

I noticed it about a week ago but initially it didn't have pics.

They probably feel bad about pricing over list biggrin

I have thoroughly enjoyed my Spyder and now its time to move it along, getting GT4 in 2 weeks. If anyone is interested in a Agate grey 3000 mile Spyder, please PM me.
