Amusingly, the 2024 718 Boxster GTS 4.0 has a base price of $97K in the US, to which more than $16K in options could be easily added. And the unobtainable new 718 Spyder RS sits at a base price of $161K. Somewhere in there lies a cultural-politico-economical observation....
What an amazing spec! I’m loving the minimalist vibe of 096 with AC & stereo delete - LWB, PSE, and short shifter are icing on the cake. How do I convince the owner to sell? Haha

Default Still looking for MY2011 ABM Updates.....

It's been awfully quiet for the past two weeks on the ABM Register (crickets....). The MY2011 section still looks mighty sparse in the "currents" columns. The latest version of the two pages of the Register are still back on Posts 15 and 28. Aren't there more RLers driving ABM Spyders? It is a rare variant of the Spyder, but....

Maybe there's some on this worldwide Gen-1 Spyder FB page?

Thanks! Would you mind sharing the current mileage? Seems to be of interest to folks. Also, if you do not already have it, I could e-mail you a copy of the Porsche Build Sheet (fun reading).

Do we know who owns Eduardo’s old ABM Spyder? VIN 187. Would love to see an update on this car along with VIN 096.

Re. #187 and #096 - Unfortunately, all’s quiet on the western front. Not even crickets.

Default PCCB’S

Can you add a PCCB column?
