@HydroLogic the car looks great! For the seat inserts, is that Grey alcantara or did you ask for a specific sample? Looks like a great match with chalk/crayon

Going to my local PPF guy tomorrow to get a full car PPF.
same experience here. Have an order (no allocation) but found a similar spec (CPO car). I will keep my order and the flop one of the cars in the future,

Given the current situation with delays and shut downs a Spyder in the hand is worth two on order!

Very nice find, congrats!

My favorite shade of Chalk is when it has a darker / greyish hue to it. But then again, I like some of the other hues it adopts depending on the lighting.

Chalk Spyder with PCCB's on Autotrader right now. But don't expect to drive it or be driven in it. No test drives and the guy doesn't have time to take you for a ride. Just pony up $150K and cross your fingers.

It'll be interesting to see if it fetches that price. Market is hot right now. Sold my RS6 last week for $15k over what I paid after putting 4k miles on it over 10 months.

I agree, in the subdued light the grey really comes out, and as you say depending on the ambient light, like the setting sun, the hue changes... a classy and sophisticated colour!

Here is a shot from the other side, with the rarely seen roof providing a different silhouette.

Anyone have or seen the chalk with the GTS/Carmine interior? I'm thinking that'll add a nice pop to what would otherwise be a somewhat neutral pallet of using the GTS/Chalk interior and appreciate some comments.

They are out there and they look great....especially with the red top. I think the red top looks best on this car color.

They are cool but technically it's black and gold. Mine has been on order and it's been 3 months. When I originally ordered my personalized plates, the website said 4-6 weeks. When I completed the order and printed the receipt, I noticed the receipt said 8-12 weeks. I still don't have them and when I called the DMV, I was told they're now pushing 6 months.

I guess CA inmates have something better to do than stamping out our plates.

Back in the days, CA used to have blue and yellow plates. I wish they would bring the blue plates back as it might be kind of cool to get blue plates on my blue car. Might create kind of a monochromatic look. After all, these black and gold plates were brought back and they used to only be available for I think cars between 1963 and 1969. CA brought them back because they're in such high demand and so now they're technically called "legacy" plates.
