Archimedes

So I put a deposit down on a Spyder in transit to my local dealer today. Build is very close to what I would have spec'd, with a few exceptions. One of them is the full leather interior, which isn't really my thing. This car has a black leather interior, but the build sheet doesn't indicate any deviated stitching. Wondering, does that mean the stitching will be black or grey? I'm fine either way, but was curious what it's gonna be.

Anyone? Anyone? Bueller? Bueller?

Idk for sure as I've not seen one in person yet but it looks like black from pics here

The door, dash and spyder logo on the seat stitching all look black

Thanks! That looks exactly like the interior specs my car has. Love it.

Congratulations on scoring a Spyder. You are in for a treat!

As for the stitches, the standard seems to be light-color. Here is my plain Jane interior:






I can't go down to garage to verify, as the car is covered. From the pictures, the stitches seem silverish.

I'm really excited about it. Sold the RS5 and went all in on Porsche. It'll be my first drop top.

Fantastic - you move quick! When does it arrive and what is the build?

You will love it!

Ship is supposed to dock Monday. Dealer says 5-14 days to delivery, depending on when Porsche releases it.

Don't have the build sheet with me but it's black, black, platinum satin wheels. $98.5k sticker, fairly optioned up except for LWBs or PCCBs. Has a few things that I wouldn't spec but I don't hate, and figure I can't be too choosy right now. It has all the key things I definitely would want (heated seats, leather steering wheel, Bose (I like the wart), etc.), as well as a few things I wouldn't choose but might come in handy like the reversing camera.

The biggest bonus of making the switch is now I'm going to daily drive my Cayman S rather than the RS5. The RS5 was a very nice car, but it just can't compare to how good I feel in a Porsche. So the Cayman is my DD now and the Spyder and Carrera are my special 'retirement' weekend cars.
