Now for the track car part. Are you kidding me?? If tracking is that important, BUY A TRACK CAR!!! Do you have ANY idea what kind of real live proven winner race car you can buy for 70 grand??
Since we're all talking pure opinion here, with nothing aimed at anyone, I personally wish Porsche had spent the time effort and money on a lightweight retractable hard top. Give me less noise when it's up, less worry about some butt-head trying out his straight razor on it and less hassle with my neighbor and his four out-side cats.

I'm in Northern CA and from May to Oct no rain and in the winter when the sun is out it's 60 degrees. Not sure I would have gotten the Spyder if I lived somewhere else. It's not my daily driver so the rain doesn't really effect me and out here you know in plenty of time when the rain is coming.
I will say the car really draws attention. Every time I stop and get gas I'm there at least 30 mins talking about the car to the many on lookers wondering what kind of Porsche it is. I entered it in a local Concours over the summer and placed for the road and track award. That award is for the car the judges would most like to drive. I have great fun with the car.
