man... is this a joke or what... a 685 steps removal and install roof design that eventually need to slam on your bonnet's paint job? and stretches using A10 Warthog jet alike emergency release 'red' handles? You got to be kidding me... NO, I would never buy this car but instead move up in the Porsche food chain right away. Disgusting.... can't imagine one minute my wife, my girlfriend and both sisters together to be able to bear removing that thing... or even less putting it back.

Try to picture the onlookers' face when you do those amazingly complicated and methodical procedures. Real potential for being hilarious....

Besides, the guy in the vid, yea that's right.... that was too much btw. Spooky looking dude

There is no moving up in the roadster food chain. You'd have to go into another category of Porsche and those don't handle as well as the Boxster Spyder...unless you go full on GT3 and there's no top down driving in that scenario. Oh and you're not doing much of many other types of year round driving in the GT3 either. Improper alignment in the wet on a nervous car? No thanks. Also, the Boxsteer Spyder was quicker than the Cayman R in one test with an ALMS driver on a karting track, every last lap was easier and faster.

Also, this car wasn't designed with your ball and chain (female passenger) in mind.
Which makes it all the more brilliant. If you want to keep the female unit happy buy a Cayenne. This is a sports car.
