Spyder spec & price confirmation

[Monkey boy UK]

Here it is, my specification confirmed and price confirmed, i think the Spyder in the UK represents good value, lots of standard specification over and above the V10 so didnt need to spend too much more

In Europe the standard price of the Spyder is 156,400 Euros, at the moment its 1 .11 euro to £1, that would mean that the same basic car in Germany would be over £140k, nearly £30k more??!!

Order spec & price as follows;

Nice to see a V10 ordered with a manual behind it...outside the usual.

Really would like to see a spyder in the flesh..could be the one next year.

One option I would have loved would have been a see through window for the V10 engine....just like the Gallardo

Congrats on your order!

I have friends in Europe who have ordered cars recently and have also commented that as their income is earned in GBP it makes buying in Europe seem very expensive at the moment.

Congrats - it should be beautiful. Did they provide an ETA for delivery?

Good call Ian, beautiful car, and other than the California ( a girls car in my opinion ) the first Ferrari you can use daily if you so wish, personaly i will be having a 599 ( used ) after the Spyder and getting the new RS4 for everyday.

I looked at the California but in the flesh the proportions look all wrong IMHO I am a big lad but it made my missus fall about laughing as I look so small in it..
