Are Spyders Becoming Extinct At OPCs!

ORIGINAL: kitchens Doing a wee troll of the car sites and it looks like a total off 13 cars are up for sale 13 to many i hear us owners all say [:(]. And not a red one in sight [;)] Private and Independents 4 White 1 Silver 3 Black and range from £33K- £39K all various spec and mileage most 2010/11 OPC 4 White 1 Black 1 Silver and range from £36 .5 for a 2009 to £42 K
Back to 5 OPC cars. One of the White ones has gone. Was the one at £40K but couldn't tell you the spec other than it had sports seats as they all did. Was only around a couple of weeks but don't know what set it apart. <Edited to add a 'new page' pic[;)] >

That was OPC East London and what set it apart was they wanted £40k for a 06/10 car! Seriously expensive but in fairness circa 6135 miles from new

[:D] It's a unpredictable market. Early 2010 car sells in days with an asking price of £40K. Which one will go next nobody knows. They've now put pics up for the £36,850 car that they said on the spec sheet has buckets, but the pic shows sports seats[&:] That together with a claimed registration date of 09/09 is a bit sloppy in terms of accuracy, but maybe this one will go next based on price alone. Who knows!
 
another thing I have noticed early on is I need to upgrade the Steels on my Cayman R ASAP as the PCCB are freeking awesome on the Spyder :) So PF08 pads and GT3 master cylinder is going on. Which ever car I sell or keep after a few years, I am swapping the PCCB over to the keeper that's for sure. I also really don't like the Spyder steering wheel, I might buy another Sports design wheel for it.
 
nice private one for sale http://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/used-cars/porsche/boxster-987-05-12/porsche-boxster-spyder-2010/1319574
 
At least he is not giving it away .....like the one for for sale at £35 .. nice spec .not sure about cruise only good thing you will keep the license clean a bit longer [;)]
 
Why are people so warranty scared ? It's a Porsche oem part !!! I guess you did not see my last cayman.

I didn't say I was scared, I asked if it will affect the warranty, because it is well known that Porsche can be difficult regarding warranty renewals if non-standard parts are fitted. I guess you don't know the answer, but am happy to be corrected!

Quite unbelievable pricing considering they were cheaper 12 months ago with less miles on the clock too [&o]
 
You better believe it. Whilst asking price and selling price are 2 different things, values are fairly stable. Compared to these OPC asking prices i'm chuffed with what I paid (OPC) a year ago for a late 2010 with <4000 miles[:)]
 
thats a really early one with high miles for £40k.mind you it has the right spec.makes mine worth what i paid new 16 months ago so thats a £2k premium for right wheels and buckets over the silver which is off the same age
 
Dyllan Why settle for second best?[&o] Everytime you look out of the window and see your second choice on the drive you will think 'if only I would have waited! The itch will not disappear and one day you wil have to scratch it. I had to wait some 6 months for mine - I would have still be waiting now had the correct spec/colour etc now come up.
