Default Spyder



Hi guys
Posted on GT4 forum on 981 side but not much response.
For those of you considering a spyder, would you go with the Sport bucket Seats or the Full Bucket Seats?
I have the full buckets in my GT4 and love them but just feel that the sport buckets suit the spyder more, especially for the seat heating function.
This is the spec i'm looking at at the moment.
This is in South Africa

We don't get the sport buckets in the US (at least not right now). We only get to pick from Full buckets, sport seats plus or adaptive sport seat plus. From your picks, I think they look great.

Ok, now that makes sense. I was wondering how come everyone spec'd the full buckets on the other forum.
I think I'm going to stick with the sport buckets for now.
Also my SA just advised me that we won't be getting the particulate filters in South African spec cars so I'm hoping the engine sound will be better than what most reviews suggest.

I am speccing the sport seats because I am a wimp and want heated seats.

Have been thinking about the dials in Bordeaux Red.

I think the sport buckets are a winner on this car.

I'm struggling between getting metallic white with this exact interior (but with full buckets) vs going Chalk with silver stitching interior instead.

I have the full carbon fiber buckets in my Spyder. Not only do they look amazing, they really allow the car to communicate with the driver.
