Nope, it's a 9x6 era car, the steering wheel and instrument gauges are 9x6 design...

I didn't like the 981 much when I first saw it, especially the fussy rear end. Then it grew on me a bit. Now I don't like it again. It just looks a bit generic now, has lost too much Boxsterness. Pre facelift 986 with ambers is still easily the prettiest Boxster to my eye (well, except for the concept).

Only other production Boxster I really like the look of is the 987 Spyder. They did a nice job on that.

I guess this is true, ekam. Started out in 2004, which was still 9x6, but it went through to 07, right?
