They have determined, that there is probably a defect in the windshield. Unfortunately, I’m the second owner and the car (2019 Ford Edge) is out of warranty. For $700 I can get a new windshield, but can’t quite swing that, yet.

    The concept seems good. However, using the squeegee and directing the liquid into the pillars. Really? So the water soap residue goes into the sides of the pillars facia. No way you clear or dry that up unless you want to dismantle the pillar facia and wipe all the liquid residue. NOT Just use a microfiber cloth, wrap it around your hand and spray a mix of a 60/40 water vinegar blend and wipe with the backside of your hand.

    • @GaryTheCarNut
      @GaryTheCarNut 8 дней назад

      Not directing the soap into the pillars just to the outside edge it the windshield. Most of it flows down due to gravity, the rest it cleaned up with the microfiber towel as directed

      @@GaryTheCarNut Hi Gary. Absolutely no disrespect here, since I know your intention was to simply get the inside of the window cleaned properly, but if you look carefully, you will see that you put way too much product on the window, and therefore it flows into the A-pillars and also behind the dash. Try to conceptualize what is happening based on what I am describing: While you are using the squeegee on the passengers side, you will see the soap migrating down behind the dashboard. Your squeegee does not get the liquid that has reached these areas. I do hope this makes sense.

    Gary, nice review on your Spyder. Like you I had a few Porsches. Most recently a 2022 992 911 Carrera manual. After two years of ownership, I just could not get used to the size. Did not seem like a true Sportscar. As luck would have it my dealer had a very low mileage 2021 spider so I bought that. It only had 2000 miles on it. Love it so much. My car is GT silver with a red convertible top and a manual. Yes it has the black rims that you don’t like! I like contrast and this is perfect for me. I was never a fan of the black rims, but on the spider you can’t go wrong with either choice. Thanks again for the review and many happy miles.

    The suspension is tuned softer in the Spyder. 103k USD after tax? Are you sure? Your CAD to USD may be off because base price was about 99k. Add tax and you're over 103. My 2023 was relatively well optioned and came to 130k MSRP plus the ADM.

    • @GaryTheCarNut

And again I agree with the bright colors. Shame on me for getting the bland chalk. Next Porsche will require a lot more considering lol

      Sure, I get it but what do you get after having a 718 Spyder?

      @@GaryTheCarNut sigh….watching you enjoy the drive! I’m into raw and unfiltered driving when not commuting. Something that needs to be within legal territory lol. GT3/911 is way too much and I’m not a track guy. Probably the 987/981 boxter + ongoing hardcore modified BRZ. My mother drives the Mx-5 😂

    You're getting a steal paying $525/year for insurance.. Is that comprehensive? I thought I was doing fairly well paying roughly $180/month for my GT4 (in the US).

    Hi from Uk-agree with nearly all your comments you hit the on the head - I would not swap the manual roof it’s part of the experience for me and gives me a chance to walk round and appreciate the car - in Uk service interval is 2 years minor 20000 miles and every 4 years major with no interim oil change required

      Wow 2 years with no oil change? I sure hope there aren’t any track days in those 2 years!

      @@GaryTheCarNut that’s UK standard main dealer - even for GT3 and GT2 including RS that get a lot of track time - having said that many including myself do do extra running in and yearly oil changes - but if you ask Porsche UK they say no not necessary 🤷🏻‍♂

    Thanks for the informative and honest owners review. I have the following dilemma ! I have ordered a 718 Boxster GTS 4.0 and expect it to arrive spring 2025. I have a 2016 981 Boxster S PDK from new and like you it's a summer car. Problem is I really like the idea of a Spyder. Out there are low miles good spec Spyder's at almost the same price as a new 718 Boxster GTS 4.0. I know I am lucky to have such a problem ! Did you consider a 718 Boxster GTS 4.0 ?

      Great question! But no, I did not. I really, really, really wanted a GT car for the adjustable and track orientated suspension and the only convertible option was the Spyder. If you are never going to track it, you are 95% there with the 718 BGTS. But really there are no incorrect decisions here.

      GTS is better as a daily with its automated roof and comfortable wheelbase. Spyder is a weekend car with the ability for track use. But if so I recommend the buckets for highest sensation 😉 And if you really want to listen to music the Burmester sound system is a great choice. Regarding the headlights I warmly recommend the PDLS Plus.

      @@GaryTheCarNut Thanks for reply and your comments are 100 % correct.I do like track days in my 981 BS but not enough to justify a Spyder. We live in Scotland have some of the best roads (NC500) and in any Porsche it is a blast. . Visit to OPC yesterday and order for 718 BGTS 4.0 is still on for spring 2025. Look forward to next video.

      @@franzhuber7361 Thanks for reply. We are lucky enough that our 981 BS is not a daily and is in fact off the road as of last month.(Scotland) You are totally correct that the roof is a issue and the ride is too hard. Yes buckets in a BGTS 4.0 now that's an option !

      Thanks, your 981 bgts is pretty close, so much better than the 718 B and BS. I sure understand why you love it. Yes, the Spyder is a great next step!
