Porsche Boxster

The new Porsche 718 Spyder - this is what my husband would buy

Following the last new Cayman GT4.My husband also did it about spider configurations.Since that is so, I would like to share it with you today.

New 718 Spyder

This time, the new 718 Spyder.(Some places on Porsche's website refer to it as a "718 Boxster Spyder.")I tried the configurator of the GT4, but there were quite a lot of choices compared to the GT4, and I often got lost.

At any rate, I made two patterns this time and will introduce them to you.

Pattern A: Spider Classic Interior Package

interior

Perhaps, in this Spider.I think this is the most common choice for the "Interior package Spyder Classic".This will have a Bordeaux red and black combination interior, and in addition to the laser interior, the door panels and center console will be Alcantara.

Anyway, the two-tone seats are cool. Of course, theEven better looking with lightweight carbon full bucket seats.However, since the Spyder's character is such that I want to use it mainly on the street, I personally opted for the regular sport seat.

By the way.If you choose the "Interior package Spyder Classic", you can hardly customize the interior, and if you want to change the stitching or color, you have to remove this package.It seems to be a recommended package for Porsche. In short, it seems to be Porsche's recommended package.

exterior

Exterior color isGT Silver MetallicThe color is my favorite among all the silver Porsche models. This color is my favorite among all the silver Porsches, and it was the color that I was struggling with until the very end when I bought my GT3 Touring.In sunlight or bright areas, it may look like ordinary silver, but indoors or in slightly darker areas, it has a metallic look and is very cool!The following is a list of the most common problems with the "C" in the "C" column.
In addition, in the case of the "Interior package Spyder Classic," the center console and cup holder covers are trimmed in GT Silver, which also matches the exterior color.

The tops look good in black, too, though.I remember seeing a Boxster in silver with a red top that looked very good and cool.Therefore, I chose the red top. Incidentally, it seems that the "Interior package Spyder Classic" is automatically selected when the red top is selected at this time.

And then...Roll bar painted body colorto the new car. This is one of the options I am glad I did when I bought my Boxster GTS. Just by keeping the colors the same.The body and roll bar become more integrated, and the overall body mass becomes stronger.The following is a list of the most common problems with the "C" in the "C" column.(In some respects, that's a good thing, because the entire body of the car looks lower when unpainted.)

PCCB brakes are used.Mainly for street use rather than GT4.The reason is that the reduction in unsprung weight improves ride comfort even on rough surfaces.

You can choose the lights based on your design preferences, but when I bought the Panamera Turbo, I installed the LED PDLS Plus lights, and they are not that different from HIDs in terms of experience, so I'm going to use them again.Selected a regular HID with PDLS.

And just like with the GT4.Door handles are high-gloss black, a recent trendIt is.

Pattern B: Slightly mature spider

interior

Unlike Pattern A, I decided not to select the "Interior package Spyder Classic" but to make my own by changing the stitching color, etc. However, theWhen I do the configurator in Chrome, Firefox, Edge, or other browsers, some choices are not reflected in the image or different parts of the image are changed.This is a problem that we have had before with GT3.

If you do it in IE, you can see it in 3D and the reflection will be more accurate.

So, launch Internet Explorer (IE) and let IE run it.IE allows you to use Unity's 3D plug-in, so you can see the finished image in 3D and your choices will be reflected more accurately.The first is that the software is very easy to use. However, it will be heavy on a computer with poor graphics capabilities, so we recommend using a computer with some high graphics performance.

After a lot of trial and error, we triedYellow interior stitching, door handle straps, and seat belts to match the PCCB yellow calipers. I tried to keep the seats and interior in standard black to avoid boredom.

exterior

The exterior exterior color is crayon (chalk), which goes well with yellow and is a personal favorite of mine. Other options are the same as Pattern A.Black top with chic specificationsIt is.

718 Spyder (B)

Pattern common: Other/comfort equipment, etc.

Leather was chosen for the handles. This is entirely personal preference.But I don't like Alcantara. When I bought a McLaren 650S a long time ago, it was almost completely covered in Alcantara. It was certainly sporty and cool, but I remember that I regretted it because I couldn't feel a sense of luxury compared to leather.

Also.Heated seats are a must since it is a convertible car........ Besides.Steering heaterI also added a new one. This was on an AMG S63 coupe and came in handy on very cold days. This will be even more useful in winter if you have a convertible.Something I regretted I should have put on my Boxster GTS.The first is.

Otherwise, it is almost the same as in the previous GT4.


How was it?
Basically, the color should be your personal favorite, but the other key points are the balance between convenience and design, and how much comfort equipment to add. For me, long-distance touring and winding roads are the situations in which I use my car most frequently.Imagine the intended use and environment, and choose the best specifications.I think.
