I didn’t want to get too crazy with the options, they add up so quickly. When I had
my GT4 I went with the standard seats and basic sound system. This time I went for the adjustable 18 way seats and upgraded sound, plan on more road trips with the top down. The down side of not getting my Spyder towards the end of the year, I’ll be dealing with snow and cold temperatures here in Colorado.

Last night, just for grins I tried to spec out the most expensive GT4 I could, with every option checked in it's most expensive form. I got to around $146k. And it looked hideous. For good measure, I went Viper Green belts, yellow deviated stiching and Guards Red dials.
My SA was hoping to have more information prior to the August shut down and said he would
let me know as soon as possible with any 2021 changes. He also said in his experience they’ll usually keep the color options for two years, but and if there was a change, I will have plenty of time to choose another color. I’ll post my build sheet ASAP, it’s at home.
Nice build. Add heated seats. You're in Colorado and 3/4 of the country has seasons (chilly days) which makes heated seats a must for any convertible and more so for a manual top Spyder. You'll use them in CO and they will return more than their cost at resale.

I hear you about options, they add up so fast but some things seem like they are needed others are more like decorations, easier to stay away from. As has been suggested, heated seats would be a must option in my book as would be a heated steering wheel especially in a convertible! I got the heated wheel and have not yet given up on adding heat to the LWBS!
I don’t usually drive when the weather is cold. If it gets into the 30s for a high my car sits in the garage. With the Cup 2s and the degraded traction on wet roads, I drive my truck. My wife on the other hand is always using her seat warmer in her car and I haven’t told her that I didn’t get the heated seats in the car. I’ll make a call to the dealer and add them.😬

Good choice! Anything below 60 can get chilly on a top-down spirited drive and heated seats make it much more enjoyable. There are plenty nice & dry chilly spring or fall mornings or evenings where the heated seats come in handy. I use mine all the time. They make the car more welcoming as it warms up to you right after you start it.
I just got word from my SA that I reached V210 - Change Freeze point reached. What is the difference between V210 and V250 - freeze date? my V250 date is june 12th.
"V210 means the order has been placed (all your options have been selected) and accepted, but you still might be able to make changes. I know once it goes V250 then your build is locked and there are ZERO changes after that" From another RL member

I would treat V210 as order locked... I tried to do a simple change at V210 (deselecting the painted roll bars going back to stock black plastic) but it was rejected from PAG. My dealer was kind of shocked as they told me they could do changes between V210 and V250 in the past... but with COVID factory reboot they have been more tight locking stuff down earlier. Not saying you might be different, but I wouldn’t risk it!

I agree with this, unless you want risk a delay in production time to accept what you have ordered, triple check it now, right now and only change something you can't live with or without and call it done!
