Are Spyders Becoming Extinct At OPCs!

It gives you a much nicer throttle pedal feel imo And relaxes the PSM cut in point so you get a bigger slip angle when on but it still cuts in. I run both cars 100% in sports mode. Cost is about £700 fitted with buttons etc.

ORIGINAL: philnotts99 I'm up, just! I wasnt up at 4:55 am though!! [8D] Looking slightly cloudy here though so top down drive out tomorrow morning when the sun is out maybe on the cards as well!

What a nice day you're going to have. Sun is out too. Was on the first Tube to Euston collecting mine. Took two days to drive home.

I'd have had roof down today :-( Nice little B road exposed Cayman's dimwitted steering this morning, it's no Spyder... But Maddie preferred passengering in it because "it's not freezing and it would have been." I don't get weather anxiety too, a major Spyder flaw!

When you swapping it for a R ?

 

[rob.kellock]

When they bring out a new one? [] 99% of the time it is excellent. And I like being in it, being excellent when the Spyder would have been parked in the garage. I have nearly done 1000 miles in it already. []

Hmm, is it really worth £700? Be more persuaded if it gave me another 50 bhp [] Last time out on track the car felt like it could cope with so much more bhp and left me wanting more, although I was chasing down a GT3 RS for most of the day which had an annoying advantage on the straights but we bothered it through the corners.

I think im going topless today !! []

I am beginning to think you should have bought a "R" or at least the Hardtop![] Page 13 of Spyder manual states unless raining or below freezing these cars should be only driven topless 24/7[8D]

 

[zyp]

Me too. I'll be out and about around south Notts.

Anyone want to upgrade their wipers to an aero set. They were fine on my Spyder but this is an unused spare set no longer needed. Yours for the price of postage and a pint if you feel like it. Not Porsche OEM just unbranded set.

I think i get why you need to go topless now! [8D] Oh and i now understand the best kept secret!! []

was it you I saw on Wheatcroft island about 11:10am this morning? I waved but I was just disappearing around the island so don't know if you saw me. Lovely day for it!

Hi. I am the very happy new owner of the red spyder (yes I love the coulor )from 911v and yes I have found my way on here. I have a feeling I could upset some people as I know she is higher mileage than a lot and I don't care as I love driving her and seeing the attention she gets (dirty red Sonia is her name! Lol). I will be taking her down to the Le-Mans 24 hr shortly and was wondering if I would be the only Spyder to make the trip? I understand some people want to keep the mileage down but I can't get the grin off my face when driving here!!!
