Default Hey from Aiken, SC

I'm bout get my first spyder in a couple of weeks for my B-day in August. Having a hard time deciding between the 2011 RSS and 2011 RT A&C, leaning towards the RT for storage and the trailer capabilities, but I like the looks of the RSS, not to mention the bronze and black paint job on the RSS matches my Eclipse I currently drive, any suggestions?

Welcome to our corner of the universe!
RT versus RS... This is an argument that you'll have to have with yourself. They are both very capable machines. The RT is more of a relaxed ride while the RS leans to the sporty side of the marketplace.
I've got the RT and love it! (But I'm a low-performance rider!)
More than half of the fun is in the shopping, so enjoy the process!

Welcome!!

I suggest test riding both models if you can. Many prefer the RT, though there are those of us who prefer the RS camp. Your reason for choosing a Spyder will probably play into your choice; if medical challenges sent you to the Y Factor Family, it may depend on which one situates you in a way that you don't hurt when you ride. If its because you like the look, it could be the distance factor that makes your choice. Hop on both, see what you think!! Be sure to let us know!
