Default Silver 981 Spyder on Polk in SF

Just saw a silver Spyder tearing northbound on Polk in San Francisco. Not 100% sure, but I think it was a woman driving it. Anyone here? If so, two questions: GT Silver or Rhodium? Stock exhaust?

Looked and sounded incredible.

Took a road trip last Saturday to see a couple of Spyders in the flesh. A white one and a stunning Sapphire one. Wow! such an amazing car. I just missed out on a really well priced barely used Sapphire Spyder a couple of weeks ago. I was out of the country and it sold instantly. I did not move quick enough.

Did it have gt4 scoops? I think I'm the only Spyder in the city that I've seen, and if it was later in the day then it Looks like I need to tell my fiance to slow down it seems... lol! She had just dropped me off for a work dinner instead of taking uber. This is hilarious. Gt silver and fabspeed headers.. Little rule-breaker that she is probably turned on the PSE in the city.

edit: confirmed.. it was my troublemaker.
ME:
honey... were you driving fast on polk with the sport exhaust on?

HER:
Umm.... Yes
Duh
I always turn that little button on
I wasn't going fast - I was just a keeping it in first gear since there was a stop sign at every block
That's why it was loud

ME: SUUUUUUUUUUURE. busted!

My neighbor has one, whose car is often in North Beach. He's a long time Rennlist poster, but I will let him self-identify ;-)

Seem to be a few in the Bay Area. Just saying. I feel like I'm in the wrong place or something.
