Rick3000 gave a link for hitches early in the thread, I haven't been able to find any more. Will keep looking and will let you know. Ed

Funny that I bumped into this thread as I recently posted my experience installing a Will Wood hitch and utility trailer on Rennlist. Bottom line is it works great. As others here have said, the tongue weight is rated at 60 pounds. I'm not sure a small foldaway camper would be that light but I just don't know.

My guess is, you can forget what the door tells you. there's a guy on our S2000 forum that tows a 3000lb boat. with a stock S2000!

I guarantee you if that car can do it, a Boxster can. Though I wouldn't do it everyday.
