That is far quicker than the old car’s 18.0 sec and not far behind Boxster S’s 14.2 sec. What a pity it still drive through a 5-speed manual from the old car, without Boxster S’s 6-speeder to choose from.'

What a nonsense thread!

Thanks everybody for the education re the 2.5 vs the 2.7 but have to agree with this last line above!

My favourite quote say's it all:

'the new Boxster 2.7 should settle the embarrassment facing by the old Boxster since the arrival of Honda S2000.'
