mcdelaug:Welcome to RT! When will you take delivery?
Thanks mcdelaug!
I have been here for a while but I haven't posted since the forum data loss.
My original delivery was end of December, but I was told to add a 16 month delay for PTS. My order has been accepted, but I'm at V170 status and was told I will be for a few weeks... According to Porsche Exclusive my paint has been ordered.
This is my order: http://cc.porsche.com/icc_pcna/ccCall.do?userID=US&lang=us&PARAM=parameter_internet_us&hookURL=http://www.porsche.co...
I have one CXX option not listed: Interior Trim Package painted Exterior Color.
Beautiful scenery and car offcourse :-)

navanod:m4ever:Great looking Spyder. It is just a pity that you cannot customize color wise the interior parts .
You can... I did for my PTS Spyder. It cost me $2k!!!
It's a signature Boxster Spyder detail that I felt was good.
That is great. When I enquired about a PTS/ITS Boxster Spyder (in May this year) I was told that the interior plastic parts could not be color coordinated on PTS painted cars due to the material testing and related homologation issues. Glad that you had it sorted out. I think it is well worth the wait, you will have a very personal and unique car. Please post pictures when you receive your Spyder . Congratulations again!

Mike S:I put in an order for one a few weeks ago. Build will be at end of the year. So delivery only in 2016
The reviews have been all great thus far. Can't wait to experience it personally!
Compared to all your other horses in the stable it'll be a pony i'm afraid... Looking forward to your review , undoubtedly very truthfull because of real world comparison with your horsepower monstres.

Hahaha, pony's have their charm
It's not about the black and white figures that caught my number. The price is extremely competitive and despite the lower hp, the car is not slow by any stretch of the imagination. Plus I love the look and feel of it - I'm also not sure if the next generation will still have the lovely NA 3.8 engine or the manual box.

That's exactly what made me go for a boxster for the first time, pricewise it's a bargain compaired to a 911, more excusive and haopefully a blast to drive... still 2 weeks to wait...

Any rennteamers about to take delivery or thinking about it ???
Have thought numerous times these past weeks of trading my boxster for one. What a big dilemma, specially for my pocket
i just cant let it out of my mind. . Think its a keeper and will mantain its value very well. Cant think of anything better for the ¨money¨and fun factor that gives. Open top, manual, sound, has all ingredients to be a keeper.
this is my heart vs brain situation right now :

Gauss:I thought they were sold out ?
I havent even called my dealer to start things out, but I guess there is still allocations for Spyder's. I am sure I call our dealer and they will get one.
I still have to think about it because if I make the call, I cant go back .
I am very happy with my little boxster, but I am sure I can trade it with no depreciation and jump into this beast. And hopefully it will be a long long keeper, no doubt. The fact that it can be the last pure porsche before turbo engines and pdkera rules the world.......I see the Spyder and GT4 a future classic for sure.

Hi Alex,
Sorry to lessen your expectations, I was lucky enough to get one of the last ones, because it was already sold, but after some reflection the customer didn't want it anymore?!?!!
That was around the 01.08.2015 after that there were no more free "Spyder spots" available, that's what a few dealers told me...
But not all is lost, you still can get a few from dealers, mostly more expensive than from Porsche
Mine will be build next month, can't wait!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Good luck though, surly it's one of the best Porsche's in very long time! A pure driver's car!
Once Porsche, always Porsche!
4-6 weeks ago in Germany all Porsche dealers got new build slots for 2016. The bigger dealers got 5 to 6 new slots for 2016. But with the waiting list most dealers had, I think they are now gone. Maybe some slots free up when a customer decides to get another car.
Alex, put yourself on waiting lists. Not only at one dealer!
