Ah the day the boxster is powered by an engine similar to the heart of the Subaru forester. Really though it isn't terrible, however, I'd rather it be a NA 4 in a light weight car, sure they could get at least 250 that way. If only cars got lighter over the years and not heavier. A modern 914 of sorts would be great, however, this likely won't be the case because the Porsche assumes we want sat nav cup holders and 16 way power seats these days. So if they keep it light and NA (and consiqiently a lower price) it'll be awesome, maybe give up the price and give it a carbon fiber chassis. The 4c is pretty good thanks to this. The only alternative to turbos id be okay with is an electric supplement, again only if the weight can remain low.
