That classic silver and red color combo will always be great. It is so good to see that you are enjoying your Spyder as intended Nick! I sometimes wonder if I'm putting too many miles on mine and good to hear you've hit the 15k mark (just exceeded 10K myself). This is such a great and unique car to savor, its great that we have a community that share and understand our insights and passion. The Spyder is one of the few cars that I've owned that I could imagine keeping forever.

I’ve been busy planning my 3rd Euro tour with this car. In June I plan on returning to the Swiss Alps, Itialian Dolomites and a few nights in Venice.
Can’t wait !!!

My best buddy came down with some very challenging health complications this year, which put a lot of things in perspective for me. When my time is up, I don't want to lament how little I drove my car. I suspect none of us on our deathbeds will wish we drove our cars less. If anything, we will be kicking ourselves about that road trip not taken, that serpentine two-lane we bypassed in favor of the super slab to reach our destination sooner, etc., etc.

Glorious night. Glorious car. I am lucky.

Congrats on 10K, Nelson!

Oh oh. Sounds like we can expect more pics from your epic annual summer Spyder escapades. Not sure I can take anymore!

Took mine out yesterday and today (sorry, no pics) and lamented to my wife that we haven’t taken a cross country trip in our Spyder since we brought it home after buying it. I’ve put very few miles on the car since I’ve owned it, only recently rolling over 8k miles, but I am hoping to change that soon. My biggest challenge is that I typically travel with a guitar and amp plus luggage when I am on the road, but I may have to downsize for a trip so I can stretch the legs of my Spyder.
There’s few things less sad than a low mileage Porsche.

With the sheer amount of revenue raising and dbl demerits and now the $$$ tickets to access PUBLIC spaces on NYE - Sydney has got to the dogs. Beautiful sure - but - I will debate the merits of "the best country" all day......
