Maybe a Chevy V8?

Check out this site. I just emailed them on the Boxster and whether they have anything in development of us.

I will keep you posted.

This is EXACTLY what I would do...


www.electricporsche.net


I sent those guys an email about your situation. I was meaning to do it just out of curiosity (or peace of mind!) in the event that similar fate were to befall my beloved BoxsterS. Seems to me that dumping $15K into a 10 year old car is a losing battle. Now on the other hand if its got no need for $5 gas you might have something good on your hands.

This is sucks, that converted a 959 into an electric car. I'm sorry (this is kinda hijacking the thread), but thats like drawing over a picasso with glow in the dark pen saying, "hey look, this is just better!" (in a Jeremy Clarkson manner of course)

I was never a fan of these conversions before, but given my current situation it seems like a bargain, if they were to make one for the boxster. Definitely keep us posted.
