Well he was definitely able to red line 2 gear a lot so at least beyond 140kph!

What does everyone do to keep the Chalk as shiny and clean as possible? I am planning on Xpel PPF and Ceramic Coating, but wanted to know what everyone is doing and having good results with.

My Spyder is wrapped in Xpel Ultimate, sealed with a Gtechniq ceramic coating, topped with Meguiar's Hybrid Ceramic wax, for detailing I use the matching Meguiar's Hybrid Ceramic detailer...

Default First drive

After a long wait (see the stop sale thread), I finally picked up my Spyder from LA and drove it home. This is my dream car—and my first Porsche—so taking it up the central California coast and wine country with the top down on a crisp, sunny day was by far the best drive of my life. Looking forward to driving it more and sharing more photos as soon as the weather cooperates!

Congrats on a great looking car, not to shabby for your first Porsche!

Looks like you have LWBS and PCCB as well, love to see some shots of the interior too, enjoy!

I love the look of Chalk when the light levels drop, the setting sun just adds a different spin on it. Great backdrops too!
