I can understand on the base Boxster, but the Boxster S?

And it would help me out here in the Canadian winter with snow-ice covered roads...
Standard story on this was that Porsche deliberately didn't offer a limited slip because testing showed that a Boxter with a limited slip was faster at the Nurburgring than a 911. Can't have that.

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