If the Spyder RS ADM proves to be excessive, there is always DeMan. The 4.5 along with some suspension upgrades would probably provide a ride that is equally compelling as the RS.

700. Every dealer gets a couple; large dealers obviously get more.

That guess is based on 991.1/2 all GT production/NA deliveries. Looks pretty constant at around 1/3 rd of production.

Then Canada might get ~ 70, not a lot to go around...

Yep. My numbers hover around the 40% mark for the US market.

If they are going to make it a true limited edition final boxster, might as well give it the 3rs engine treatment. The final hoorah and an eternal Porsche icon.

Looking into the cow bell, wasn't there a floor with a small hole before, and now it appears open...?

I'm not seeing any changes on that mule. You also have to go out of your way to wash a car that badly.

Oh yeah, n4v4nod pointed out the "deeper" cow bells in the last spy shots. I missed that.
