Yes I know that. Sorry I think I didn't word my previous response clearly. I have gone for the other two alcantara options, but not the alcantara package. Out of the steering wheel, shifter and e-brake, I only really like the steering in alcantara. So I would probably just get that on it's own from the parts list.

I really like aqua blue and look forward to seeing a picture of one. I'd consider one in blue with black wheels.

Would anyone be interested in starting a registry to provide numbers of each color
chosen, etc.

I was going to make one... I have 987spyder.com already registered. I'll let you know what I decide on when I get there.

Looks nice, but I think I'll pass.

Might be different if they put a Turbo in it ...

Pretty slick how it all fits into the compartment. It would be better to watch a more exciting demo, say involving a bikini.

I'm a total fan of this car buy that video scares me. Maybe if I lived in CA and never had to put the top on. Seems like the car is going to get a little beat up putting that on and off. Still love the car.

WOW. That looks like a total pain in the ***.

I hit the power top button and BANG, 12 seconds baby, I'm done!

I love my Boxster S more every day!

I do love the Spyder also, but that top! WOW!
