Boxster S RS Spyder Now Official

I agree with DrBurton!

[Chills]

So do I.

I'm disappointed too, that these new special Porsches just have BNG. (Bold New Graphics)

303 hp makes it the fastest boxster yet right?

Stock, yes, the '08 S reaches 295HP. Porsche engineers yet again meet the claim that a Boxster will never replace the HP in a stock 911. Give us 325!

303 HP makes it faster than 98% of the Porsches ever built.

Ho hum. Doesn't do a thing for me. Come spring when I've saved up the money and get my monster Turbowerx engine makeover, the special edition Spydyers will be watching my plain old 04S tail lights vanish in the distance.

so I always am in the Camp of more horsepower but I saw in I think motortrend a cayman that had like 395 horsepower.....some aftermarket do up....that ended with a price tag of over 100K....and even they said while the HP was great, the gar was 4 tenths of a second faster than the stock S.....with that being said....give me the horsepower anyways!

oh sorry, I like the color combo....but I do think the interior is too much with alternating silver and red but then I thought the black wheels on the orange SE sucked, and the Cayman SE was a waste of paint

RS = REAL STUPID
RS = REAL SLOW

Stupid that you would put an RS on a car and only bump the power by a few horses. You have to be a Real Sucker to buy this RS and pay the premium.

If it's priced in a manner similar to the orange special edition, the "premium" is actually a "discount".

Very true, as the Orange Edition is a relative bargain, if you priced out the Sport Exhaust ($2,000) and Sport Design Package ($5,800), they are almost $8,000 if ordered alone, and then there is the Alcantra, etc. Perhaps Porsche will do the same here with the S RS.
