Daro, bring that over here and you can get a second job delivering the mail...

Nice! Haven't brought mine to AZ yet but noticed a saphire blue spyder tonight in my neighborhood when out for a walk but couldn't flag him down...

Beautiful. Congratulations!


The only 2012 US 987 Spyder that was able to be ordered
PTS by an actual end customer (JSF101) was this exact color - 'Speedgelb'.
You can see it below, with 'Speed' in contrast to the newer 'Racing' hue!

Afshin: After the .2 987/987 models, PAG incorporated
a heating option on the 'gt2-style' folding 'Sport Buckets'
that it continues to offer in ROW on the new 981/991
models.



PAG did not offered us that on our 987 Spyders!

Keep a lookout for 'Signal Green', 'Nardo Gray' &
'Crystal Blue' in your neighborhood now!

Enjoy- would love to drive the English countryside in a Spyder! I had to do it in a rental Ford, but at least it had a stick...

Does anyone know if the PTS 'Pantone 296C' 981
Spyder ordered by Schmitwerk in Oregon is now
owned by someone with a home in Scottsdale, AZ?
I believe I saw it yesterday at Scuderia SW's 'Cars
& Coffee' on Mayo Ave at Scottsdale 101 Shopping
Center!

Thanks Anonymous! We need you to post
more about your recent Porsche orders &
your new mega-garage. Are you by chance
ordering a PTS .2 991 gt3? If so, can you
explain to the 991 gt3 forum how that
request was handled by the '918 Spyder
Circle' program & when was your PTS slot
confirmed & went into V200+ status?

garage updates are coming soon. after multiple construction delays fingers crossed cars are hopefully moving in next few weeks. stay tuned for pictures!

yes I do have PTS 991.2 GT3 coming. i simply just ordered it through the dealer. pretty sure 918 Spyder Circle program had nothing to do with it.

best...

Well, do tell us the status of your order!
If having ordered two 918 Spyders has
left you presently in V180 status for the
.2 991 gt3, you are right! Welcome to
the 'Porsche Commoners Club', which is
'PTS Limbo (or is it purgatory?)! There
everyone belongs to the choir & sing their
sad tales since July 18th, 2017!





If on the other hand your PTS .2 991
gt3 order is V200+ (e.g. V215), David
Donohue has taken care of you via the
PTS allocations reserved for the '918
Spyder Club' VIP members! Like with
the 'Platinum' American Express card,
membership does have its priviledges!

Please do tell us since it could shed
some light on the PCNA's PTS request
'cue' that they have initiated for non-
VIP customers re: the .2 991 gt3!

Default Owning a Spyder

Dear all,

I own a 991.1 GT3 and consider buying a 718 Spyder.

What do you think about the Spyder?
What are your experiences?

Thank you for sharing.

Cheers.

J-P
