- unique stainless steel exhaust tip
- 10-mm-lower suspension (M030) with five-mm-wider track (via factory spacers)
- Xenon headlights
- full leather interior (in Cocoa or Dark Gray with matching convertible top)
- sports seats
- black face instruments with chrome trim rings
- aluminum finish brake calipers
- GT Metallic Silver exterior with matching interior trim
- 18” Carrera Light wheels painted in two tone Seal Gray and Arctic Silver
- only 500 of the 1,953 total worldwide production were exported to the US for sale
I understand all that. What I was asking is how Ottomotion knew from the picture of that car in Florida that it was a 550 Spyder. What gave it away? What was the telltale sign?
