If there were one thing to hate about the boxster, what would it be?

BTW, I hate the blind spots, too. Gotta get those Euro side mirrors.

You mean a Boxster S with a limited slip differential is faster around the Nurburbring than a base 911?

I doubt that.

Given the chassis design I have no problem believing that. The 550 spyder was not a car of enormous power either. Racing isn't a fist fight, a lot of times the ballerina beats the brawny bruiser.

PS The RS Spyder is a mid engined design, spanked the more powerful Audi's this year. The 911 is iconic and remains Porsche's flagship, the truth is it is not their best design but when the public buys doughnuts you make doughnuts.
