My 2 Cents: If you have a chance to meet up with other Spyder Owners, the you should do it because you'll have a great time.

The route had sweeping turns


The route has S-curves


The sun shined on our behinds lol.


Lots of turns on Mt Palomar.













Beautiful Spyder.


Early December Morning in Temecula California.

Andrew thank you for posting the pictures, you captured some amazing action shots!!!

Great group of Spyder owners here in SoCal and it is always fun to catch up and go on these drives.

I met a gentleman on a NYE drive a few days ago who mentioned this.

What is it? Where can we learn more about it? I'd love to go if there will be a good turnout of Spyders. I'm currently obsessed with this car so much more after our drive - these cars (and the people who drive them) are in the 1% for me. Much different crowd from the 911 guys (no offense to 911 owners if you are reading this!)

Ale, the graphics on your car look so right to me and I'm not one who normally digs graphics other than the OEM side stripes. Very unique and a great green. Well done!

And I just realized that it matches the office garage



Jokes apart, many thanks. And the thing I like most is that these stripes have been put on just because I did not want to spend money to respray the car (it's full of stone chips and the bonnet has a slight different shade of white. Cheap job done by the previous owner)

I will be there but I will be driving the 964. Regardless I would love to meet up with the Spyder owners and check out the cars, let me know if this gets pulled together.

I think this is the 2018 Reunion thread started a while back:

https://rennlist.com/forums/987-981-...eunion-vi.html

Hopefully there will be a bunch of attendees from this forum. Would love to see a great Spyder turnout in the Boxster Corral.

Heresy! Sacrilege!

We've still got nine months to work on you and see if we can't get you to reconsider.
