2008 Porsche Boxter RS 60 Spyder review
 

"Porsche will present on April 4th at the 18th Auto Mobil International (AMI) in Leipzig the new Boxster RS 60 Spyder. The RS 60 Spyder is a vivid reminder of the Porsche racing era of the ’sixties in color, shape, fittings and philosophy..."

This is from a new review on 2008 Porsche Boxter RS 60 Spyder, from Top Speed. It includes info on the design, safety and performance of the model, as well as other features. Also available is a video and wallpaper / photo gallery.

I think that article was posted here once before.

303PS=299bhp, so this car gets 4hp over the standard version, or in other words, nothing.

Saw one of these at the dealership today, not really too special, but a nice box nonetheless. But those bright Orange Special Editions...THOSE are in yo face!

Mind you it took Honda 4 years to add 0 horsepower to the S2000 and 8 pound-feet of torque.

4HP in a year isn't bad, considrering the Boxster has 201HP in 1999.

That's not 4 hp per year, that's 4 hp for a model that they charge a premium for. The other S's don't get a boost at all.

I thought the 2007 and 2008 987S had 295 HP? Still, 295 vs. 303 is no big change.

PS is a metric measurement of power that is a little higher than BHP. 303PS=299BHP. All other 3.4s have 295BHP. You'd never notice a 4 bhp difference.

Here's a link to a post I made in another forum- it has a picture and the price tag of an RS60 in Denmark. It'll make anyone in North America happy with what they paid for their Porsche.

That's almost US$240,000!!!!

:eek: :eek: :eek:

Try buying a new boxster in Singapore. They boast the highest retail prices on cars anywhere in the world. A new S class Mercedes is now $500,000 bucks, even with a weak Singapore dollar against a weak US dollar.

We have one forum member who bought a used 2001 base boxster and paid $120k USD for it in Singapore.

We US buyers are very fortunate indeed.
