C2 Turbo,

That's not my 2022 Porsche Spyder.

It's Jim Dillard's new Spyder I just did the pictures of it last evening for him.

Jim is on the Left in picture.
That's my GT4 in the Racing Yellow in picture.

Hi Randy,

I did that Sign for Jim Dillard when I drove over last evening to check the Spyder out for him.
I live maybe 10-miles from Porsche of Nashville.




It's a Super Nice Machine,
Terry

Randy,

I have the C-A-R-P-O-K-E-S 3D-printed "No Drill" 718 license plate holders ready to install.

I had an e-mail from Porsche NA this morning inviting me to add the Spyder to my "My Porsche" account. After a verification text, etc, it appeared as one of my vehicles on "My Porsche," and had a PDF copy of the official Monroney Window Sticker which I've posted below.

Now the real obsession starts. When every pic someone takes of your car makes you catch your breath...

Where did you get your side decals that say GT4? I've been trying to find them to buy for when my car arrives but the best I've been able to find are ones that just say Porsche

That looks like a very nice interior with lots of extra leather and deviated stitching.

Please post more pics after delivery.

Congrats.

Thank you sir! I'm taking delivery tomorrow however, if their schedule allows, I'll be leaving my Spyder with PON Service Foreman Nick Gwozdz to perform some additional mods I'd like to get done, including adding the SOUL Resonated Ceramic-Coated OAP's and Cargraphic controller. When that's done it's over to the PPF/Ceramic shop so they can do their thing. The work never ceases...LOL...but I promise to post photos when she's all put back together and "streetable."

I'm puzzled by the 'no drill' on the rear plate. Is that just because you want to do it--and make sure it's not off-center or too large? If not, are you just going to use double-sided tape to affix the plate?

...and AWESOME car! Lifetime keeper!

Thank you! Actually...a bit of both. I hate drilling bumper plastic, so purchased the C-A-R-P-O-K-E-S 3D-printed 718 license plate mounts that use the ULTRA-STICKY 3M double-sided tape for adhering to the flat rear license plate area. I've attached a few photos and a PDF of their instructions.

Jim Dillard,

I might have gone with the SOUL Resonated OAP but actually didn't know about them until (After) my SOUL OAP with Jet-Hot 1300-degree ceramic coating were installed.
I know you have the Spyder where I have the Coupe but I'm still going to be interested to take a Long-Extended afternoon ride in your's to hear what it sounds like.
Oh, and to drop by the same Fairview Mexican Restaurant ........ Hint-hint

Deal! And I'm going to make you drive my 6-speed manual so you really appreciate that beautiful 7-speed PDK in your GT4 that's got you so spoiled!!
