Still looking! I appreciate those who have reached out or help to connect with yellow owners.

OP - though I have an idea, what makes you want a Spyder (981) vs just keeping your 981 GT4?

Good luck in your hunt! According to this, there were only 28 Racing Yellow 2016 Spyders for North America. It was the rarest non-PTS color:

For sure. I have become a bit 'locked in' on this. Have converted that spreadsheet into a database that I use to quick glance at specs. Even developed a custom scoring system to my taste to rank them.

I LOVE this GT4. It's the desire for an open-top experience and lack of likelihood that I'll put my car on track that has me going this way. But it is something I have gone back and forth on many times... but at the end of the day, it's Spyder for me.

I believe this is what you are looking for - auction ends later this afternoon.

i hope that in 15 minutes you’re going to update us that your “not interested” was just an auction tactic.
