What is the overall difference other than weight for the spyders?

 

i believe the spyder's have a little more flex than the hardtop.

 

if im not mistaken spyder's about 130 lbs heavier than the standard eclipse

 

he already said other than the weight. I don't think there is much other difference than the wieght. Its basically preference, wether you like convert. or sunroof

 

Depending on if you get the turbo model or not... Other wise, if you have a GS/GST, and you have a GS Spyder, the motor is a 2.4 instead of the 2.0.. And the motor will sit in there differently/exhaust manifold... You will have less trunk space in the Spyder, (No matter comparing to what model). The back seat is a hair smaller(Less leg room) Yea imagine that.. Less leg room then a normal GS or GST... And you have a little botton on your dash for the convertable top to come up and down

 

there is not much diff i like my spyder very much but they get broken in to more offen and if u dont take care of the seals and wether striping they will leak but outher than that theres not much diff

 

i have a 98 spyder a swell,and i am very curious about how to maintan everything that has to do with the top.can you please tell me?

 

not a prod drop you top and whip down all the wether striping with a good uv protectant like armor-all or somthing like that and do the ones on your top also were the windows meat the top i would do this 1 a week at least and if you here any funny sounds from your top loki it still runs after the top is up get it looked at buy someone who dose tops they can be tricky to find .also check and make sure all the screws in the top are tight they do serve a porpous do this and your top should stay in good order

 

I keep mine in the garage
