Great fun with you as always. Thanks Janko
Thanks ternavasso, It is nice to have you onboard our community.
Janko - so appreciate this video, I’ve watched 3 times and just finalised my spec for car delivering to UK just before Christmas. I did have Classic interior but so much red! Plus reports of windscreen reflections etc. I also paused on buckets and Cup tyres but since driving car at PEC Silverstone with both you feel attached to the chassis. Said to dealer “sorry for late change but blame Janko”😀. As a 981 GTS Cayman owner I will use that for long distance and the Spyder for special drives. Thanks again, love the content and like you if I was lucky to get a 992 GT3 allocation (which I won’t probably), thus is my first GT car and probably a keeper.
Congratulations to you Spyder, you will not be disappointed and thank go... that you ordered bucket. Perhaps you have honoured me with your subscription.
Thanks for the walkthrough, helped me spec out a few interior options.
Thank you for watching :-)
What a stunning beautiful car - great selection of color and options, I get it - "your religion" - your choice is timeless, elegant and goes directly back to your 718 model you have for sure for a long time.
Yes, I had a plan with my spec and I followed through.
Love your video and insight on the options
Thank you for supporting me with your subscription.
Great video yet again ! Your car is awesome. Love it and your channel. Greetings from Canada.
Hello Good from Canada. Thank you for contributing to our community. If you are not already, please subscribe to my channel.
You speak very clearly and heavily pressing on each word; I learned English just listening to you
Ahhh, not sure my English is good for you. Please pay attention to my grammar. But anyway thanks for watching and perhaps you have honoured me with your subscription.
Stunning car and love the passion you have for your vehicle and the thought you put into every decision... Keep up the great work!
Thanks Gareth, its not the last for everybody but it is my religion ;-). Perhaps you have honoured me with your subscription.
@@JankoLind Certainly have! I have a 718 Cayman GTS 4T... really enjoying your content
An amazing spec'ed Spyder. You finished a masterpiece. Very impressive production.
Thanks Lawrence, for the energy. Perhaps you have honored me with your subscription?
Janko Lind I’ve been subscribed for months and watching. But this was a special day of Boxster spyder artistry the way you spec’d you car. A unique expression of your perfect Porsche.
I think you nailed the spec better than any I have seen on RUclips. It’s perfect!!! Congratulations.
Thanks, bmahoney, thanks for spending time on my channel and contributing to our community.
Great video! The car looks nice, especially from the front quarter angle. Love the Spyder. I always wondered how some of those options turn out in real life. Porsche has the dopest configurator on their website. Playing around with options on that thing is so fun.
I must agree, I play around with many models getting to know them better.
I have a 718 GT4 currently on production hold waiting for the factory to restart. This will not only be my first Porsche GT car, but my first Porsche altogether. I was surprised (and a bit overwhelmed if I'm honest) at the level of personalization that was available, so your comments about the ability to make the car pretty much exactly as you want it are spot on. I only wish you have made this video a few months ago as I would have found it quite helpful when doing my own option selections, specifically the options around the interior materials (i.e. leather wrap steering column, etc.) as I feel like I should have made some different choices there after watching this video. I really like the look of the stealth wrap on your car and I am thinking of doing something similar when my car arrives later this year, albeit I have a different base colour chosen. Looking forward to more videos, specifically some driving impressions once you get a few KM's on the car.
Hi, rogueCypherNetwork, Congratulations to your GT4. I made a 45 min spec video a long time ago:

Beautiful build 👍
I love how you speced this Spyder. Taste is everything! Glad I found this channel but sad that I saw this car; I think I have to get one now.
You should not be sad 😔 it’s a beautiful car and you will be super happy 😃 when you have bought it. Perhaps you have honoured me with your subscription
Congratulations - excellent car with a great color & spec. I'm not the biggest Boxster/Cayman fan but the Spyder & GT4 are fantastic. The Spyder looks like a mini-Carrera GT.
Hi Trey,
As we all know I am a 911 guy but the Spyder.... OMG it is pure beauty.
Excellent choices!
Thanks, I agree 😁
If you are not already, please consider subscribing.
Looks beautiful! Love the black on silver. So understated as opposed to cayman t which was x10 over the top in my book.
I kind of loved both design, different purpose. Cayman T was all about wight and this one is a gentleman racing car.
I love the red fire extinguisher. My 19 Boxster is GT Silver w tech sport seats in black and silver. The red puts a small pop in the interior. Silver seat belts complete the look. I left red calipers for the red splash outside. Black top. You have an awesome spec
Thanks Max, well you like red dots all over your car, that's the beauty, you could configure it as you like. Big thanks for watching my video.
Very good & clear spec!
Thanks P-driver. There is no right or wrong but I do like my spec.
Stunning looking car both inside and out. Congratulations
Thanks Alan, good energy you give. Thanks for watching and subscribing.
This is one of the top Porsche RUclips channels. Enthusiasts that care about details like this channel. While I am saddened that Porsche EV’s are the future, I will continue to enjoy these ICE cars while we can.
Thank you Jonathan, both for the energy and time you spend on my channel. Yes I will also enjoy the ICE for as long as we can. Please tack care and thank you very much for your subscription.
Very nice spec, it has a lot in common with my own 718 Spyder. I love the stealth look as well as the black calibers and black PORSCHE batch on the rear (too bad that I forgot to order both on my Spyder). Especially when you opt for GT silver I personally like the interior in the same body color as a reminiscence to the historical Spyder. Unfortunately, I did not order GT silver for the AC control panel, as I considered it to be too expensive at that point in time. Now I need to look for an alternative solution.
I look forward to your first driving review, keep up the good work and stay healthy!
Big thanks G-Man for your contribution to our community. I agree AC control panel in silver is very expensive. I gambled with leather interior package and for me, it was a winner.
Perhaps you have honoured me with your subscription.
Unbelievable,what a great car!
I agree, Gord, If you are not already please subscribe to my channel
Beautiful car, lovely build. Be safe and enjoy
Thanks Jeffrey, and perhaps you have honoured me with your subscription.
@@JankoLind I am a subscriber and have been since almost the start of your channel
Good afternoon, Janko,
Congratulations again on the video. Just when I thought you wouldn't respond to my comment, I was pleasantly surprised that you decided to share it with everyone.
I agree that everyone has their own philosophy and world around their car, in my case, I couldn't be more pleased with the configuration I have chosen. Thanks again for giving your point of view and sharing with us all the logic that led you to configure your Spyder the way you did.
My previous comment was only to offer you a new personal point of view, at no time to discuss your criteria.
I'll keep watching your videos! Enjoy your new beautiful Porsche!
Hugs from Spain!
Again, thank you for your contribution to our community Sergio. The world is not black and white. When I produce I need to tell MY story but that dose NOT mean I am always right. I'm quite alone in the world appreciating the 4-cyl displacement in the Boxster and Cayman as an example. Please continue to contribute, it gives a nice angle to my videos in a very polite way. I can not see, but you have subscribed, right?
Hugs from Sweden.
@@JankoLind I completely agree Janko, it's a pleasure to bring a point of view and be able to share it in such a pleasant way, I will certainly continue to do my bit in your channel. To bring a point of view, the 718 platform works very well dynamically with the 4 cylinder turbo engines, the changes are always difficult to appreciate, and I think that in not much time, we will see these engines as real successors of the original 718 rsk, I think there is room for both engines (6NA & 4T) and I think Porsche offers the best range of sports cars in the world thanks to the variety. I have been a subscriber for two or three months and I am delighted to enjoy your videos.
A big hug from Spain!
Beautiful car. Well done.
Thanks Shane, Perhaps you have honoured me with your subscription.
Haha, I know what you are talking about Janko. Especially about specs! 👍🏻
well you know Alexander, it is what it is.
Gorgeous build. Makes me eager to receive my GT Silver CGTS 4.0 with Silver wheels and black calipers.
Hi Brad, congratulations to your Cayman GTS. You will not be disappointed.
Beautiful spec!
Thank you ///W, perhaps you have honoured me with your subscription.
Thank you for yet another excellent video. I absolutely love the spec of your Spyder - classy and to the point.
Thanks Eske, as always I appreciate your contribution to our community and the time you spend on my channel. take care...
Can you explain how the auto or electronic hand brake operation is used to help on big hills and how to use it. I could not get an allocation in usa and the dealers are marking up the price 25k US.
I purchase slightly used for only 4k over msrp, 2k miles. I got it with the sypder classic interior package.
Thanks
When you stop in a slop the handbrake will activate automatically, when you press down the clutch the car will not move and you have plenty of time to engage first gear and reales the clutch to start in the slop.
@@JankoLind
I tried it and that WORKED.
Thanks. My first manual car, it's a Blast, chalk paint, what a badass looking car !
I've got a very similar build on order. I really like how you lay out a framework for designing your Porsche. It helped me adjust my build a bit! Question, I also see the silver Spyder as paying homage to the GT. What did you do to the paint job to get the matte like finish?
Hi Will and sorry for a late reply. Autoshield in Stocholm made a high professional work putting Xpel Stealth PPF on the the car everywhere. Gives a beautiful Aluminum look to it. BTW BIG BIG BIG thanks for your subscription.
Great video, great choices. You are correct, new cars in the US must have a reversing camera.
Not sure why they have this rule but on this car it helps. Thanks, 93455Driver, perhaps you have honoured me with your subscription.
I lost count how many times that I watched this video. I am presently awaiting my 718 Spyder for September delivery. The build recently locked and the hardest part was selecting a color. Originally, I ordered Shark Blue, but when I saw some Cornflower Blue VWs, I wasn’t really crazy about it. So, I switched to Chalk…manual, LWBS, silver stitching and seat belts and black calibers. I finally settled on steel brakes after much internal debate. It is not a loud “look at me” color/ build, but it fits who I am.
Congratulations to your build following your thoughts and need, your religion. You will be satisfied. If you are not already please consider subscribing.
Fantastic video man, you are right on calipers. I feel Porsche needs more colours on their calipers. Some ppl like to match their car colour.
Yes I agree, more colour or just make all black. It should be a non cost option to have them in black.
Another great video Janko. I love the spec of your Spyder. It’s such a shame you simply cannot get one new in the UK. I’ve tried and tried and tried. My dealer (which is one of Porsche’s largest in the UK) gets an allocation of 2 per year! However, I will keep the pressure on and you never know, I might just get the call. Great to see the silver wheels against the GT silver which would also be my personal choice.
Keep on pushing its all about environmental regulations. You need to sell x Taycan to put a Spyder in traffic. Yes I start to go back to silver wheels. IF you are not already, please consider subscribing.
Janko - love watching your videos. You express yourself with Passion for the love of Porsche! - Amen!! How did you apply the model Spyder onto the Dashboard? I would like to do the same........
Quite simple, double-sided adhesive tape in several layers. Thanks for the time you spend on my channel.
Wow Janko, thank you for your excellent expression of your opinion. At the moment I have the option to buy a 718 Spyder, but I’m really torn between that and a 991.2 GT3 touring. Have been doubting for one year now. What are your thoughts between the two? You’re the only one with reflections I can actually do something with. My plan is to use the car mainly on b-roads. I have had the 987 and 981 boxster and caymen and I loved the open sky in combination with a good chassis. I value engagement and intensity over pure speed. As a result I lean towards the Spyder but I’m really afraid that I will miss the top end sound from the GT3. Thanks!
You will miss the top end sound, you need to modify the Spyder to get close to the GT3. Thanks for contributing to our community and for the record, I would have a hard time to choose between thous cars.
Hi may I ask you how much km did you make for your engine break-in before to get the highest rpm ? (8000) thanks
About 3000 km
Hi Janko! How do you cope with the ground clearance of the car? Where I live, speed bumps are more than traffic lights (lol) and parkings are mostly underground (with the usual inclines). Even though I love the car and the dealer has some allocations available, I am really worried I will be scrapping the car a lot.
I have never had any problem with ground clearance with speed bumps. Sometimes I need to go vertical going down parking houses.
Great video Janko, it helped a lot to spec my Spyder, as I still can do some changes on it, I am not sure if I understood well about the 2 zones climate control, is doesn't work when the roof is open? Thanks and keep with the great independent work.
When the roof is down it dose not effect the comfort, N/A
When the roof is closed well yes then it has a beautiful function but on a Spyder, It should be down 99% of the time.
@@JankoLind Thank you very much Janko, now is clear. I agree Spyder roof is the sky, but...in Spain in hot summer we would need to close it sometimes or we will get fried ; )
Great info as always Janko! I completely agree with you regarding brakes color and tire brand! On my RS6 black brakes were standard while red brakes were optional at appr. EUR 450 -- for the 718 GTS it is the other way around (except that the optional black brakes are appr. EUR 800)... Also it appears that all 718 GTS come with P-Zero tires, and since I cannot specify Michelin (neither PS4 nor Cup 2) in my order, I will now have to try to sell the Pirellis and buy my own Michelins and then have the dealer switch before delivery :-(.
I feel with you, the tire question is ridiculous and is something Porsche need to handle as a cost free option for their customers.
I didn't hear you talk about the brakes you selected. Did you go for the carbon ceramics??
No no need to, HRE wheels instead.
awesome spec and love how you put it your thoughts behind them. not sure though what benefit the Alcantara sunvisor brings in the open top. But great that you have the shift and button console trim in leather and not a reflective material! Love also your personalized door sill. Personal yet neutral if you ever wanted to sell it!
Thanks mike for your contribution to ur community. I made the desition for the personal doorsill based on my thoughts not making any value if they are neutral or not. Perhaps you have honoured me with your subscription.
@@JankoLind I am subscribed... feel free to subscribe back lol... I am currently posting about my 981 GT4 Euro delivery on IG and am planning to edit and publish some of the videos later on my youtube channel
Hello! Nice review and nice channel! I subscribed and watched a few of your videos and enjoyed them. I wanted to know your thoughts on the 718 Boxster and how it compares to the 718 Spyder?
More videos to come, welcome to our community and thanks for contributing with a comment.
Congratulations on the spec the Gt silver with satin ppf is stunning , loving the black interior .
Question was red available as an option and if so the 918 seats would still of been black correct ? Therefore an RS60 would not of been possible .
Stunning driving ahead 👍
there is no red interior available, only Bordeaux red with the classic package and that's not my cup of tea. Also red instrument cluster was never in a RS60. Thanks for watching as always.
Nice video Janko! I also had a flash for this car with pretty much similar specs EXCEPT the seats! I have NO experience with bucket seat and TODAY the Porsche dealer mentioned they are very uncomfortable in large trips and that I should not option them out! Comfort is also key for me (nothing to do with religion here) and I can understand Sergio but still have my doubts!!!! Leaving apart your personal taste and connection with the car for those buckets seats, are they as comfortable as regular seats! We are planning to get the car in Leipzig and drive up north towards Denmark and Sweden.
Before I punch the button and order, still want to hear from you and whoever had both experiences!! Again Congrats on your channel
Since you don't appreciate the bucket then perhaps you should consider the Boxster GTS. The ride itself is NOT for long trips. Thanks for watching and subscribing.
Can't wait to hear that engin!!! :D
Still running in my engine...
c'mon Janko, I need your Spyder content as soon as possible.:-) We have no Spyders in the US, so I have to live through you and Thecarguys
The factory starts production again on Monday 4th of May 2020, they will arrive soon to US.
@@JankoLind great video. I will spec mine almost the same way but skip the climate control and the bucket seats. keep up the great video and insight!
@@bradw922 OMG NO BUCKET SEATS? Get the 4.0 GTS ;-)
I did the same mistake on mine not specifying the rear view camera. On my previous 718 with front & rear parking sensor i had the graphics with distance on the PCM. On the Spyder, having only sensors on the rear there is not this and i'm afraid that camera can't be installed later.
Also for the seats they have been not able to tell me the weight difference between carbon and full carbon seats, so i' ve gone for the former but these are not adjustable in height.
Hi Roberto, I believe this video will help you a lot:

@@JankoLind Thanks Janko ! Unfortunately i already collectect the car mid February, even if is still stuck in the garage for the Covid 19 but my Porsche specialist already told me that is not possible to fit the rear camera
Cheers from Italy
The Spyder makes more sense now its comparable to the GT4. Great looking car. Being in a convertible opens up your visual and oral enjoyment to drives. Enjoy what in my eyes would be the pick of the Porsche range for a road car.
I agree, the 718 Spyder makes sense with the touch from Motor Sport.
killing car love it.
She is a beauty. But not a 928 ;-)
Thanks Janko, new subscriber here. Took delivery of my GT Silver 992 a few months ago but feel its so big. Should I search/order a Spyder??? I welcome your opinion.
Spyder is a motorsport product, if you are focusing on drivning and not commuting then yes. IF your intensions is to drive to work, no.
@@JankoLind Makes total sense…thank you!
Great Video! Beautiful build and the Satin Xpel is a great after market add on for looks AND protection. Did you opt for the CCB or Steel?
Sorry but what is CCB or Steel?
Janko Lind carbon ceramic brakes or steel :)
@@redgasman7569 He has the steel rotors with optional black calipers, @4:20.
Janko, because of you, I have put a deposit for a new Spyder but in Miami Blue!😆
OMG, Miami Blue....
With red stitching 😃😃😃
@@kttan7318 Check out Autogefuhl videos, he’s all over Miami Blue!
You've given me some new thoughts about how I'm going to spec my 718 Spyder; I was going to do the yellow stitching, seat belts etc., but the silver looks great too. Great video Janko.
Thanks Mr. Congratulations to your Spyder. Perhaps you have honoured me with your subscription.
Is it possible you could make a video or just a detailed comment on which you compare the 981 Spyder vs the 718 Spyder Janko? After years of admiring the 981 I still find it hard to choose the 718 over it. The sound and experience of the 981 is just on another level in my eyes, plus for the price, compared to the 718 it might be a bargain. In my mind the 981 goes down as one of the all time greats even though it might not have the same precision of the 718. Or is the precision difference between the 981 and 718 even noticeable other than on paper?
I am already planning a head to head video. Thanks for contributing to our community.
Again, you’re the best Janko. Thank you.
@@JankoLind thank you very much
I went for the 981 Spyder and do not regret it. Emotional wise it is so much better than the 718. If you use the Spyder as a track tool the 718 will be the better choice as the suspension is better. Still the suspension of the 981 is not bad at all.
Very helpful, thanks! Seems to me the red or yellow calipers are about the owner, not the driver. The owner wants everyone to know he could afford the PCCB; the driver just wants the performance. So your choice is right for a driver’s car. (Would be my choice, too.)
Exactly. If you are not already, please consider subscribing.
Enjoyed your video. Owned a ‘16 Spyder in silver. Doesn’t sound like you would like my GT3 Touring in Miami B with 18 way seats. Lol. And yes, I speced it that way.😉
Hi closer to truth, I would love to by a Miami blue GT3 but with bucket seats. The Color matches a GT3 perfect. Thanks for watching and subscribing
I just picked up my 981 Spyder, GT Silver over Garnet Red. Yellow calipers 😹
@@clu4u You will love it!! Congratulations.
Nice one, Janko. I specced mine as a female GT4! Think Naffi Thiam: a sprinting goddess with muscles. You've seen the pics. It's the yellow one in the black mancave. Yellow is also the historical Belgian racing colour.
BTW: I do like the Cayman GTS 4,0 very much also. What's not to like? I'd still spec the buckets with it though. If you cannot get out of the buckets, one should go to the gym is what a wise man once said somewhere ;-)
LOL, I still stick with that statement. Gym first bucket next. GTS 4.0 not sure. Better of with the 2,5 GTS.
how is the ride quality compared to 718 GTS?? much harsher?
In comparison to a proper 718 GTS, the 2.5 liter, it is harsher.
What a perfect sport car! the only thing i dont like about boxter spyder it just the manual roof,imagine it is an automatic open it would be better than most of other porsche in my opinion. But still this car its really(one of the best porsche) Also silver its my favorite color for porsche 🍻
For me the manual top makes the car perfect. It is a true blast to drive. If you are not already, please consider subscribing.
I just ordered mine today!!!
A 2021
It was work to find a US dealer that had an allotment.
I’m on cloud 9.
Congratulations Michael, I hope you selected a manual gearbox.
jävla ja.
Working on getting the interior just right. More leather, less Alcantara.
On the fence about headlight upgrade.
wich car drives now the best the 718 spyder or the T-version
Well, I will tell on my review, please be patient with me. If you are not already please subscribe.
Great video and gorgeous SPYDER!!! I am in 100% disagreement with you about the bucket seats. I spent all day at the track driving a SPYDER, GTE & my 911 Turbo S. After 2 hours in the 718 SPYDER I had to get out of the car. My Turbo has the 18-way sport seats and you still have great feel through the car and massive enhancement in comfort level. I have had 5 back spinal surgeries after flying the F-16 for 32 years so I am not choosing the GTS 4.0 because I cannot live with the bucket seats. I don’t give up on my choice of car because of seats!!! I raced Porsches for 10 years back in 1989-1999. So if you drive relaxed you drive faster on the track. Smooth = Quick Times. The other Porsche seats were made for driving Porsches. PS: I am SUBSCRIBED!!!
Check Six!!!
Hi Gordy,
I'm sad to hear about your spinal surgeries and I hope you are fully recovered.
You are right we are in a disagreement when it comes to the bucket seats and that's the beauty with Porsche, there is no right or wrong, just different religions. With your flying skills, I would buy an airplane before looking at a Porsche GT-car, and then enjoy the comfort with your 911 Turbo.
Big thanks for your subscription, your contribution to our community, and the time you spend on my channel. Take care.
How would you spec a 718 GTS 4.0?
With a 4-cyl displacement. ;-) Not a fan of the GTS 4.0 Sorry Stephane, please do not hate me for that and I understand I am the only one in the world. I would by a Base Carrera instead.
Could you list the full option package.
You have my build code in the descriptions. Perhaps you have honoured me with your subscription
Test driving a 2021 Spyder today…GT Silver/Red top….holy hell it’s a disease!
Janko Can't wait to see the GT4 front splitter on your car. Thanks for the great videos
Coming soon! Coming soon! I have a plan for my videos.
You should wrap the fire extinguisher in black
Yes, or paint it silver...
Give me one reason why you selected the Spyder and your best friend selected the GT4? I like them both but I decided to pick the Spyder?
For me it was very simple, I could choose he could not. Allocation is hard to get. There is a misunderstanding that this vehicles will not have a limited run but they will. The production time is the same as for the 991.2 GT3 and believe me, that was not enough.
In the same breath, having a GT car with out a roof, that's something special. Not many produced in the Porsche History and I needed just seconds to decide.
@@JankoLind Thank you Janko, all your videos are very helpful to me and others. Can't go wrong with the GT4 without roof. Enjoy your new toy and looking forward to your new video. Cheers
Wish i had the money for this Janko
I understand, both me and Johan is trying to stay humble towards our luck. But one day Neil, one day...
What do you think the best wheel width is?
I would go with 305 in rear, I've tested it.
@@JankoLind He is what mine comes with:
Wheels and Tires
• 20" 718 Spyder wheels in Silver
• Front: 8.5J x 20 wheels with 245/35 ZR20 tires
• Rear: 11J x 20 wheels with 295/30 ZR20 tires.
What about the front and wheel size? Which rims did you put the 305's on?
And right after the wave... the home owner came out on his deck and screamed, "GET OFF MY LAWN!"
LOL, did you know that there is no tress passing in Sweden? In fact, you are allowed to walk over someone else land if it is not close to the main building and you don't disturb nature or not make any marks. In fact, you are allowed to tent anywhere for one night if the tent is not visible from the main building.
Bruh.... This ain't South Central.... Chill out son...
@@JankoLind that gives a new meaning to "What are you two doing in my bed?" 😋😂🥳🤣
Janko, You are the first person who thinks like me on brake caliper color. A body color or some other bright color detracts from the beauty of the car body and the wheel style and beauty. The brake calipers are a mechanical device and why people want to draw attention to them is beyond my understanding.
Best words every Carl...
Floor mats are not standard in Sweden?!?
No
Janko - Spyders are just starting to appear in the US. On the few models I've recently seen in dealer videos, it appears someone at Porsche has made a terrible design decision to mount the square antenna receiver right between the most beautiful lines (buttresses) on the rear trunk. I assume it is part of the radio/satellite function and there is no radio delete option. I have not seen this on any of the European models and do not understand why this would be different for us here. Why, oh why would they want to put a 'wart' on such beautiful art 😭 ?!?
My eyes are filled with tears reading your comment, please accept my condolences. This is a sad day for US.
Yes, very sad indeed! I am depressed over it. Janko, where is the antenna mounted on European versions? Who can I voice my concern to!?! Porsche needs to change this!!
How am I going to wait 23 hours?!?
Not sure JK 911 :-)
can only watch this guy at 1.25-1.5x speed
Well, we all appreciate that RUclips have such option. I try my best to talk fast but as you already know, English is not my mother tongue. If you are not already, please consider subscribing.
13:04???. Is that all? I could watch you all day.....!
Thank you, it you would watch me all day long we need to do it live, other wise, no time for edit. You would most likely fall a sleep. BTW thank you for your subscription appreciated.
This Spyder is the prettiest Porsche in recent memory, no question. Enjoy, summer is coming.
I agree, William, it is. You actually feel it when you drive it. In Sweden where people do not pay attention to cars or consider it as a luxury item, people turn their heads. Thanks for watching and perhaps you have honoured me with your subscription.
Great video ....and I don’t think you are lousy .... maybe lazy
That might be the case. Thanks for watching and subscribing.
I should point out that there are no 21 inch wheels on the Porsche Usa Build your own website
Hi Lui, there is no 21 inch wheels in Sweden ether. Have I missed something?
Thanks for watching and subscribing.
Janko Lind yeah it sounded like you said 21 inch wheels at the 5:10 mark.
Stitching on the steering column reflects too much in the gauges. Stitching on the dashboard reflects in the windshield. That is a no-no. Porsche should have an option for a full RaceTex dashboard with no stitching. And, the original 718 had red seats. Oops!
I have not experienced any problem with deviated sticking reflecting in the windshield. Yes 718 had red seats.
Who would dare to paint it in Miami Blue! ;)
LOL I do not know Roger... Nice to see you contribute with a comment. BTW do you like the thumbnail picture, it is done with a white DJI Mavic Air from www.elefun.no
Well, Roger Bailey did! ;) I’m not a fan of that color for the Spyder, but my GT4 is stunning in that color imo. 😍😎
I would never pronounce a pseudonym from some stranger who created it while taking a dump..... The funniest ones are those, who use it like a real name and put them under a email.
