Around the same date as I have been given. Not long to go now...

What have you gone for?

Had a bad dream last night that I went to collect my Spyder and they had painted the wheels blue, their was no PCM, but worst of all I pressed a button and it turned into a bright blue Evoke!!! Collection anxiety is real people

That Spyder looks fantastic

Similar price but inferior spec to the one recently flipped at Porsche Sutton although that had yellow stitching proper Spyder buckets and very few miles.

Yeah saw that one in person a couple of weeks ago - absolutely stunning!

[mjno1baller]

Thanks for the replies re the Spyder; any thoughts on the GT4 at JZM?

[Yidwann]

It was up for £107,999 I think, and has been dropped to sub 100k. I think its a lovely spec, I guess its only still there as people are holding tight. I'd reconfigure it, figure out the list price, offer that, and see what happens!

GT4 for me. How about yourself?

I find that particular car an odd spec. It's got the clubsport pack and driver harness so you'd think it was track-spec, however it's got PCCBs and with Gentian Blue/Silver wheels it's a bit too 'posh' looking. It's also missing creature comforts such as climate, auto wipers, cruise, LED headlights etc.

So I find it neither fish nor fowl, and I'm not surprised it's not selling. Each to their own though, I'm sure someone out there loves it!

Presumably it still has everything a track car would want bar the "posh" look?! Yes it is a bit of shame it doesn't have cruise, LEDS of climate but not the end of the world for me. If I could get it at a small over do you think it's still a decent car all things considered?

[Twinfan]

It would be a decent car if it had zero options on it! Only you can choose how important they all are to you, each car ends up pretty much unique given the options list Porsche gives you.

[mjno1baller]

Fair point

Would be an awesome car for sure!

Seems to be around £4k - £5K over list with that spec.

( what are the 1st registration / delivery costs in the UK btw ?)

I've been reading this thread with interest on that front... My spec is pretty minimal compared to most on here!
