The black & blue theme works so well and balances out the brightness of Shark Blue. Well done @smegman and see you in the “how do I break in…” thread 😜

Did you choose racing yellow stitching or speed yellow stitching?

Looking forward to seeing some pics!

Congrats!
My brain is so fried right now I will just say it was the $1500 one and not the CCX.....so I think that is Racing Yellow????....hahaha!!!

I should just be a few days behind you. The status info shows it was offloaded from the ship but doesn't show it has been through PDI at the port yet.
I was pretty disctracted. In fact, I was on my own time schedule but decided to come on home to get the car. Keep me posted on yours. You will absolutely LOVE Shark Blue. There are people that say it looks this or that in broad daylight....I will say this right now...it looks absolutely stunning in ANY light. Keep me posted!

I "collected" my car today. I will say this as I have said above, Shark Blue is amazing in any light. If anyone is on the fence, I would say go for it. If you like blue cars, then you will love it on this car. I will post a few pics but some of the better ones are in a format that this website does not support. So here goes!!!

Hi everyone, not sure if it's already been posted but Napleton's Chicago has a Shark Blue Spyder in stock at MSRP ~118k. Found out about it yesterday. Look for Anthony Bauer

I suppose that this is the opposite of a few years back when most people demanded/expected a discount, now the dealer is holding the car(d)s.

It shows:

”Pricing: MSRP*…Please call”

Good luck with that. But if I were in the market I’d most certainly call!!

I called about placing an order on a custom built and was offered this car at MSRP. No relationship with them. Obviously I didn't pursue and it was on the phone, but who knows.

Damn...that is awesome. I understand your decline of the offer. I always say, "There is no right price for the wrong car!".
