I drove this and the Carrera GTS in the same day and I was blown away at how well the Spyder drove. It is easily as or more fun to drive than the GTS and probably every 911 besides the RS models (which are realistically made for track use). It's a true sports car for the road.
Am a BIG fan of the Porche Boxter spyder...but I wouldn't buy it even if I was a hundred million 'coz of the roof...manual roof sucks. This turns me out immediately from the car since I've watch that man manually folding off that stupid roof...very POOR, I would have expect a lot from Porsche.
very nice car overall! but i think there is one problem. the manual top! its just not practical for everyday use.. i can imagine people getting soaking wet at a sudden outburst of rain, not only rain, but imagine driving this at night at high speed, or when u just need some privacy in your car.. it just simply is not nice to know that you need to get out of your porsche to put a stupid roof top on! it probably cuts a lot of weight not to have a roof mechanism, but i think its a problem.
Those taillights are absolutely stunning. I have never seen such a nice car in my life! too bad it is $62,000, if it the price of the original Boxster it would be so much nicer.
This is by far my favorite porsche, one off my favorite cars ever, love the outside, interior, speed, but i reeeeally wish that it had power roofing, maybe ina couple years when i can afford this one and trade in my Boxter S, they will make one with power roofing!
WHAT?!! DON'T DRIVE WITH THE TOP UP? What are you kidding me? So you might as well put it garaged winter/spring and drive it summer/fall? come on please...
@iroll4mysoul what kind of idiot are you? where in my statement did i say "daily". WTF do you think winter/spring mean to you? IT'S SEASONAL you dumbfock! Now complete your GED and stop dreaming of cars.
I would buy the regular boxter S take out all the same things they took out with this one and it will be not only cheaper but probably as fast. By the way he did say pounds when he should had said revs.
people with pagany zonda f roadster , lambo lp 640 roadster, corvette have to do the same and the sometimes its more difucult to put the roof than this porsche but its a car thinking to be driving in a sunday day on the track or a higway enjoying the wind in your face.
great looking car, looks like a mini supercar....but, for $62k, i'll take my money elsewhere...what happened to the boxster for $50k, options drive the car to 911 levels...
lol dumbasss not really the Z-06 Starts at $65, 950 and it has 505 HP.. if anything the price has risen since it was introduced in 2006..now its near $70,000
Actually this is more of a true sports car than the 911. 2 seats only and engine in the middle. The 911 is a 2+2 and a flawed car to begin with because it's engine is in the wrong place. They should get rid of it and put it's engine in the Boxster/Caymen.
@monsterenergy713 Car & Driver lightning Lap...Carrera S 3:05.8 Cayman S 3:05.8 BMW M3 3:05.0. Think again about what a true sports car is. They drove the Carrera S twice, just to be sure it wasn't faster. Has 65 HP more than the Cayman S. Look it up for yourself.
yeah, thats why they had to remove all that extra weight, becuase as this car revs higher it gain weight, so by 90mph its 4tonnes and thats its top speed haha
They should change the inside door handles. that strap thing. this car is beatiful though even without the top being manual.

It's easy for him to say "forget about the roof" WTF!

2) as fast as possible I must find P stop somewhere, get out from car, and do myself.
3) I seat back to car, and my interior all WET
