Default Looking for a Specific 2016 Spyder

Hey all,

I came late to the party and now looking for a Spyder, my bad. I've searched cars.com, autotrader, ebay, etc. Open to new or used, but specifically looking for ...

GT Silver with Garnet Red/Black Spyder Classic Package. LWB seats a huge plus! Infotainment and heated seats would be great.

I'd also take a certain Oliver Green PTS, .

Any leads appreciated.

Tom

Tom, good luck in your search. I have a car to your spec and don't live far away should you ever want to take mine for a spin. WARNING: Doing so will only make you want a Spyder even more! Mine is not for sale, but if you haven't had a chance to drive one you're more than welcome.

Note that heated seats aren't available with LWBs.

rare bird you are after I recently was in the hunt for a spyder and looked at pretty much most of the cars out there left for sale I do not think there are any new cars left to your spec. there was one in CA to this spec but was recently sold.
I do think there might be 1 or 2 silver cars w/ LWB left at dealers but not gt silver and not the spyder classic interior package.
best of luck.

Yea I realize that I'm much too late to the game. Not to many new cars left at dealers. I searched all day and made many calls. I'll have to become flexible with colors/options or just wait for something close to my needs appears on the used market.

On Sunday a SA at Niello Porsche in Rocklin, CA told me about a silver Spyder with LWB, black leather and yellow stiching (incl. PCCB) that was not picked up by the guy who ordered it. It is not on any webside, but perhaps this is something for you :-)

At the cost of starting a LWB thread.. If j were you I would choose an LWB car over your ideal color combination.. The LWB make such a difference in the look and feel of the car while driving. Good luck with your search

I only see a jet black car on the porsche exchange site but it does not have LWB.

OP, this one popped up on autotrader today. Used and it doesn't give much on details yet.
