I'm not sure that's true.

I think the 986, at least the original pre facelift car with ambers is already past the point where it's looking more and more dated.

It's now looking more and more 'period' and the new 981 only accentuates that. It also helps underline the purity and simplicity of the 986. The 981 is very fussy by comparison.

I think the only Boxster the 981 really hurts is the 987.2. It's no longer the current body shape and for those who want that and will pay a premium for it, that's a major demotion.
