Selo, the PDK variants are faster than the MT, first time in Porsche history an automatic was faster, I wonder if you can figure out why that is true?

Nothing wrong with it, I learned to drive and was solo at age 8, manual transmission, had one for the next fifty years. I still could never approach PDK nor can anyone else. People just like to cling...

I've done other windshields, I agree with Pep, find a good Indy and have it done, it's not the kind of job I would remotely think about doing.

I was unaware that the sticker has to stay in that spot for resale ( I honestly don't know since we don't use it) so I don't know if you're being sarcastic or real. What I do sometimes wonder is if...

Mensh, Then being fastidious with small details on maintenance is arbitrary. As I said in another thread my Ford has seven year old brake fluid, stops fine. I'm confident the Spyder could go three...

For my tastes 81K is a high mileage to have as a start point, it's not just the engine everything has that wear, bearings, water pump, starter, suspension, etc. You will spin it over a hundred...

I don't see the logic in running the test, fluids are the cheapest thing you will ever put in a Porsche besides gas.

I have no doubt the car is a screamer. I'm not necessarily opposed to four cylinder cars but the price point? Makes my car seem like a unique bargain.

PS KG11, the car you're looking at and believe to be a good buy is certainly no slouch and if well cared for will keep great appeal to those who like flat six engines.

If you buy it drive it as it is, you won't save what you think trying to spyderize it and you won't have a spyder when you're done or any higher residual value for the trip.
