Any word on a group buy between us and the Renntech group? I am going to buy soon but would like a good deal before spending more than I have to...

Hi Guys. Latest info was if a bulk order of 5-10 units could be placed then a 8-10% discount may be considered. From the feedback i got at the time it did not seem to be enough for most interested members to commit.

Even at $4500US I think there will be very limited demand for this top. It's primary use is for winter driving. At the current price you can drive a very nice used car in the winter for that price, particularly if you need to put winter tires on the Boxster which makes winter driving even more expensive. Unless you are limited to one car for other reasons it seems many people would just drive another car in the winter. If you're going to drive the Boxster in a northern climate in the winter and want a hard top it's also less than half the cost to put a Porsche top on. It just is a lot to pay it seems.

price comparison

If I can pick up a hard top for my 986 for 1200 to 1500 dollars, i would certainly purchase one of these tops for $3500....with out delay. But the current price of 5 grand is a little pricey, even though it looks nice.

I know that doesnt make sense. But in my mind that is what I would pay for this top.

Get a commitment for 20 at 3500, see if they bite
