Agree. The Speedster looks positively ungainly to me while the Spyder looks purposeful and poised. I also wonder what percentage of Speedster buyer will actually drive their cars. To me, the purpose of the Speedster is to add it to your collection, impress your friends, and then flip it.

GT Silver looks classy on roadsters, speedster, spyder, or whatever called

While that may be true for some, I generally disagree. The people who I know with Speedsters have multiple Porsches and other brands in their garage and intend to keep and drive them. Their limiting factor is time as they spread the miles over a 5, 10 or more cars in their collection.

i like the 718 Spyder but the Speedster is a more special car and prettier to my eyes.

came across this first Spyder to be displayed at dealer in our Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Thought I would share here, if anyone is considering this combo.

I'll second that, big fan of a dark blue car with red interior (and top!). Maybe i'm a little biased though, as I'd love this spec to go along with my E46:
