    As a matter of interest Ian, has your dealer said anything about a V8 Spyder? As soon as the bucket seats are an option I think I'll pull the trigger on a V10 but interested to understand where we are regards V8 power.

    Publicly they have said V10 first, implying a v8 will come after, I will pursue my other sources to get the scuttlebutt.

    I am interested in seeing what the new Carbon Fiber options are. Can one of you scan and post, or maybe put up a list? Thanks!

    My invite hasn't got a list of options, just a list of the carbon impregnated plastic parts and CF parts on the car as standard. I'll scan it later if I get time.

    yeah, it refers to racing inspired "manually adjustable coilover suspension" in the spec - which I'd take as being a traditional setup rather than the magnetic ride.
