Here are some pics:

What I meant by getting the car cheaper, is not that the new model will increase in price (though with the weak dollar it probably will), but that dealers may not be giving such agressive discounts on the refreshed models.

I read in this month's Car&Driver that DFI was going to give both the Boxster and Boxster S an increase of 15 horsepower.

"I'd buy the RS 60 on the floor... "

Do it, you are probably going to have this car for some time and nothing is worse than getting the car you bought home and then wishing for the next five years that you had gotten another car like the RS 60.

The RS 60 has great options list which saves you a lot of money if bought separately, it looks great, is a limited edition, has a few more hp, and has a much better sounding exhaust. In my book, if you can afford it, what's to decide.

My next car will be a 2010 base Boxster (or Cayman -- did I admit that?). I want DFI for fuel economy -- but I'd like to skip the first model year for reliability reasons. DFI is a big change.

Tend to agree if you want the RS 60, its a pretty easy decision.

Would the RS 60 be the RS 60 with different wheels. That's one of the only reasons I am not running out and buying that beautiful car. That, and I wonder if they'd ever discount a car. Couln't hurt to ask.

2010? All New? HUH? I though 09 was the tweak... I sure wish an insider could tell me some info. If the 09 is just a carry over, I would spring for an 08 or that sweet rs 60 (and new shoes for it).
