• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

    Do all 2015 RT SE's have 1330 motors?

    Too many freakin' choices! I did find this 2015 Rt SE with 20k miles (asking $12K)but didn't know which engine it had. What's nice about it is that it's in SC. Taxes on an out of state vehicle transferring to SC are atrocious.

    Do all 2015 RT SE's have 1330 motors?

    So, bottom line is that all 2015 RT's have the 1330 engine?

    Do all 2015 RT SE's have 1330 motors?

    Thank you. I've been out of the Spyder loop for many years and am looking at purchasing another. :)

    Cost of set of 3 tires from dealer

    Thank you. I just needed a number. If things work out and I go with the purchase, I will look closer at automobile tires.

    Cost of set of 3 tires from dealer

    Actually, I'm looking at purchasing one. :) I'm one of those weirdo's that think tires should be replaced no matter what after 7-8 years. Buttersmooth, what's your location? We lived in the Roseburg/Sutherlin area for a few years back in 2014-2016.

    Cost of set of 3 tires from dealer

    2012 rs sm5. I just need some sort of quote for negotiation purposes. If,say, $450 for three OEM tires installed is a close quote, that would be good. :)

    Does anyone have a ballpark figure on replacing all three tires with new factory ones? Thanks,eh? Brad

    2008 GS Thinking of purchase

    We are still looking. Found a 2012 GS asking $8K with 6K miles at a car dealer. 8 hour drive. All the ones that are in nicer shape are 4 to 8 hours away. Anyone here near Coeburn,VA?

    2008 GS Thinking of purchase

    I never thought about that. Do all the 2014 Spyders have the 1330 engine? I did find this 2016 RS SM5 for under $10K, which I thought wasn't a bad price. 10K miles.

    2008 GS Thinking of purchase

    Oh, one other thing: Ol' Number 200 was purchased out of Lifestyles Honda, a Spyder dealer, in Mt Vernon, WA. I traded it in in 2011, I think. Maybe 2010.

    2008 GS Thinking of purchase

    I went and looked that that Spyder in the above picture. It's weird how something can look so great in a picture,then when you see it in person, it ain't so hot. This Spyder is one of those. The paint job is atrocious. I can still smell the black paint, and it is dull. A crappy paint job...

    2008 GS Thinking of purchase

    I used to hang out over at Spydertalk before Lamont spotted me and bribed me to come here. LOL.He was still building the website. We both were waiting for our deliveries back then. It was an exciting time, as I recall. I was in Seattle,WA when my wife back in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan...

    2008 GS Thinking of purchase

    Back in 2007/08 when Spyderlovers was brand new, I ordered an SM-5. Got number 200 off the line and drove it for 2 years. Got out of the spyder scene and messed with two wheels for a few years. Now, being over 10 years older and possibly a bit wiser, we are thinking of purchasing another...
