Mark,
That Spyder is the COOLEST thing!! What a good looking ride!
Help me here though, what is the difference between the Speedster and the Spyder?
I'm still learning. =)

About 1.5 million in real US dollars. The 550 Spyder of mine is a replica. The 550 is the car James Dean died in and they are 1 million to 2 million.
A good example of a Speedster ranges from the 140's and up. Some of the 55's are 250k plus. The Speedster is the original Bathtub so the looks are a lot different. Here's a pic of a Speedster. Like my 65' 356 Cab they all have no power

Yes & no, but of course there is more to it.
Mark, is that buffer trails on the black part left side?
Great shot! You look very happy! Is this the next cool thing, is every one going to get a 550 replica? I've wanted one for years!
Guys, they are starting to make 904 GTS replicas, with a 3.2 engine something like 0-60 in 3.4 sec, & 0-100 is like 9 flat.

I forget who I'm talking to...
Takes to long to explain it, basically, some one with a power tool, doesn't know how to properly use it, & left little marks in your clear coat.
Good news, it's super easy to fix, I'll clean it up for a drive in it!
My bet is PP did it for you, during the delivery clean up.

Okay, I can't help myself! I keep coming back to this thead because I keep peeking at Mark's Spyder! I was reading about how the Boxster was orginally trying to design the lines to be much like the Spyder but without duplicating it exactly. No wonder I like Boxster's so much!
Next time you bring her out to the Gig Harbor meet, please let me know! Hopefully I can make it out. I'd love to see it! The Speeders were always one of my favorites. Now that I've seen the Speeder and the Spyder pictures back to back, my heart is with the Spyder.
Just look at this baby! Great picture Jason and great ride Mark!
