1. The wood clashes with the interior silver highlights.
2. Stock S bumpers look pretty good to me. I think if they came on the Cayman and the Cayman ones came on the Boxster, people would still be doing a Cayman 'upgrade' -- bcause they can.
3. Not even mentioning the badges.

I'd take my stock S over this one, even if it wasn't $30k+ cheaper.

I'm in agreement with the masses, here. I don't like the wood, the extra chrome trim, or the badges. Too much on the car.

It's a Boxster, not a Cayman, and should look like a Boxster.



lol@dcporsche99 Yep, but you barely beat me to it.

"Looking for that extra flare in the Boxster..."
Get a Boxster S

"...or perhaps a desire for a Cayman Roadster;"
Get a Boxster


"The original MSRP of this Boxster was $71,600.00; cost to replicate this car would be over $90,000.00."

So what exactly brought the total up $18,400? Oh right, a conversion at the dealership. Smart. Seems like it'd be cheaper to chop the top on a Cayman...

The Boxster is just not a woodgrain car imo. The rear diffusers looks terrible, especially a different color.
