Are Spyders Becoming Extinct At OPCs!

While I love red, it's odd why red is a bad seller in porsche, even GT3. Both look great in Red as does the Cayman R, but again not many red R's ordered. I was going to order a red GT4 if no nice launch colours but it puts me off, as I always have resale in mind. I have helped a few people look for cars and all have said "not red" even black before red, and I think the Spyder in black loses its lines.
OPC's have to source tyres through Porsche nominated supplier so always going to be uncompetitive.

Yes the tyres were more expensive than local tyre shops - but the OPC met me half way. I hate tyre fitting shops so was happy to pay the premium to ensure no damage to wheels. (or at least less hassle if damage did occur) and I didn't have to hang around in filthy "customer Service Area" waiting for tyres to be fitted! £700 sounds very cheap though - more like the price of the 2 year service. If this was a 4 year service - including plug change and brake fluid change - then your OPC certainly do look after you!!

OPC Bristol charged be about £700 for my 4 year service as well.
Just to balance the numbers, mine was £950 in Aug'14 but as it's my first Porsche I'm perhaps not as valuable a customer as MrD - PCGB membership does get you a healthy discount.

]to be fair the only decent ones are the black pdk and white 911v ones. the two high mile white ones do look well used in the pics. no doubt the previous owners had mega fun with them. red is nice, but both of those would look way better with spyder wheels and the gt2 buckets. I think one of the red ones was the ex pec car as well if you google the reg plate.
Good spot I have a side on picture on a pdf which I can't separate or upload on it's own but this is the front shot not clearly showing the alloys but could be the same Spyder
On paper has to be the Private 13K car. But much will depend on the buyers preference and if he is a cash buyer or require finance.ORIGINAL: kitchens Did a quick look on PH and the following Spyder are available 3 whites 2 reds 1 black Which will sell first ? 2011 42k mls £39.997 OPC white 2010 18 k mls £43.995 911 V white 2011 (61) 13k mls £39.450 Private black 2010 31K mls £39.790 OPC red 2010 19k mls £39.950 OPC red 2011 40k mls £37.000 Dealer white Changed[
Good spot. I had half a day's fun in that car at the PEC - it was so "full on" we had to come in for a coffee break! The driver's seat was torn on the side where it had been caught by uncaring people getting in and out, some of the decals had been high pressure hosed off and I dread to think how many sets of brake pads and tyres its been through!

The car at OPC Bristol does have correct Spyder wheels.
