Default Found my Unicorn

Hi everyone. I'm new to the board and about to be a 987 Spyder owner. I've been in search of one since 2015 and let two low mileage ones get away from me. I stumbled across this beauty a few weeks back when I ended my frustrating search for a newer GT4. I can't wait to get it on to the open road.

Cheers!

Tony

Congrats Tony - most certainly one of the most unique spyders produced. Glad you plan to enjoy it.

I'm near Ann Arbor with some great roads at my doorstep - perhaps we could get the twins together sometime!

Great choice... the 987 Spyder will be more fun than the GT4 in 90% of driving. Enjoy

Another Michigan guy here, with the cousin Cayman R. There is a fall tour on October 8 with the Rally Sport Region PCA, but more fun, the last track weekend of the year here with the Lotus Club at Grattan that weekend. Bring these out!

Congrats! Drive it in good health. Yet another Michigan 987.2 Spyder owner here. I live in Grand Rapids. The Mrs. and I will be at the Fall Color Tour in TC. Possibly going to DeutscheMarques too.

That's fantastic! 3 Spyders and a Cayman R all in the state of Michigan

My car just left Redwood City CA yesterday. No eta estimate yet
