Cayman that will be one very cool looking Spyder! Did you confirm if the decals will be black?

To those of you picking up PTS Spyders, you better take care of them! Spyders are rare enough, these four will be ultra rare.

I didn't ask... Personally either way will look good, but my gut thinks they'll be black.

As for the rarity, I agree. I plan on keeping her pretty stock... all mods will be reversible... No paint work like my current Spyder. First mod will be PSE.

When I bought my Spyder back last September I asked if I could do a PTS in Riviera or Mexico blue and of course they denied me. Definitely one of the best Porsche colors ever!

Here's one more for you Cayman...

And, sometimes I think my Dad's 62 Roadster looks close but I have never seen the 2 colors side by side. His color is actually called Glasur Blue though, but also from the early 70's time period. Seeing them side by side on here this is quite a bit of difference. Both are beautiful shades of blue!

I have always liked Porsche Riviera, it's so close to Ford's Grabber Blue. My grandfather had a 69 GT500 in Grabber Blue, I wish I had that car today

Default want some pictures of a Rivi Boxster check these out.

Found this '99 for sale just a few miles from house just 2 years back for just $10k. I should have jumped on it!

I just swapped out my PSE for my original standard exhaust... I'm shocked how quiet the standard really is! The PSE is going on my new baby!

I love the color but could never own it. I'd have a line of law enforcement officers in hot pursuit. That GT3 with the orange wheels and decals is my favorite pic. Enjoy, but keep an eye on the off ramps and the mirrors cause they're going to see you coming. Hopefully they just want a closer look at a sweet ride.
