I'll shoot you a PM for the next time I go.

Thank you! I'd love to see a signal yellow Spyder in person.

👋 That's my Oslo Spyder, @bvita we said hello briefly. Honestly, I never paid attention to the wind screen so cannot really comment on what effect it has. I'll remove it and let you know!

I've only driven it 3 times but have gotten compliments about the color from random strangers each time out.

Just seeing this. Congratulations my friend, great choice of color, one of my favorites from the early days!

Definitely was at least nice to briefly say hello! I'm sure I'll catch you at another one. I'm up toward Riverside County and decided to make a last minute decision to check it out. Was a nice drive down at 6:30am lol.

Dark Sea Blue

Finally picked up my Spyder in Atlanta after euro delivery was canceled. Loving it, and the color, so far. Dark Sea Blue (A5G).

Thanks for the kind replies. Honestly after driving it through the tail of the dragon and along the blue ridge parkway I think I’ve found the perfect daily driver. Fantastic steering, comfortable but direct suspension, enough power for the street.

I debated on the color for some time. Aga and Albert were top contenders but the amount of black in Dark Sea Blue is a perfect compliment to the trim/wheels while retaining enough red to work with the interior.

Don’t know the stitching but Jesus that car is beautiful. I would have done silver stitching myself.

Video of that same Maritime Blue 2021 Spyder...

Video color looks very different than the pics color to me.

I suspect several of the colors in this thread are off. I haven’t seen them all in person and don’t know what’s wrong with what. If there is an expert floating around, feel free to call the colors out that are overly misleading. Certainly not trying to give anyone the impression a color is something it isn’t.
