Where are all the 981 Spyders?

[Billy_Whizzzz]

Unless i’m missing something, none on AT or PH. Where are they all? Historically there have always been a few for sale. Plenty of 718s, so it isn’t a seasonal thing

Less produced than 718, so the numbers currently for sale shouldn’t be a surprise.
I’d expect some to come on to the market in spring, prices will be higher than ever though.

Couple added to the market in the last few days, as stated will be a few more of the 237 coming to the market in the Spring no doubt including mine when it comes out of hibernation

There's a Facebook group where cars seem to be advertised. I know last summer when one of my friends was looking to go from a 981 GTS to a Spyder, that there were very few available (and that was peak buying time) and he was looking for a couple of months.

My friend bought his from RPM Technik and literally spotted it within 1 hr of it being listed - you might want to contact RPM as another friend sold his 981 GTS on SOR with them as well and it didn't even get advertised before someone bought it.

The marketplace for these is craigs spyder club.

I was considering one of these last year after i sold my 981 GT4 which I loved. Problem was it was impossible to teat drive as there was only 2 on the market a long longway from me. I tried a 718 spyder but it felt a bit dead compared to my gt4.

I worried the 981 might be a bit ‘soft’ after the gt4. Ended up getting an V6 Exige 350 and 991 turbo s which is a great combo bit Im still wondering if the 981 spyder would ofbeen a better choice

As I'm currently weighing up options, ive been down a similar thought process.

Appreciate your views on the 718 Spyder however, the 718 does at least get the same setup the GT4 gets.
No so the 981 Spyder from what I've read.

And just like that…..now 5 on autotrader.
Prices have firmed up a bit, £70k-ish seems to be the ballpark.

[scrounger73]

A few have sold on cars and classics for ~£60k and one sold at Tom Hartley for ~£55k.

Makes sense .

Similar ballpark to where 981 GT4's sell on Collecting Cars for good examples
