981 Roll Bar extension

Looking for a new drive to the track car -- considering a newer Boxster S.

I know the 986 and 987 needed roll bar extensions and BK sells them.

Does the 981 need them? I haven't seen one available.

thanks,

mike

I don't think it does. I just came from a PCA NER/NNJR HPDE. My instructor had a 2013 981 S which had no rollbar extension and he said it wasn't required. There were also a few other 981s that didn't have anything extra.

How about a 981 Cayman S as an option? I'll have one for sale in a few wks.

PDK
bi-xenon w/ PDLS
14-way pwr & memory seat
heated & vented seats (great in hot weather)
Bose
rain sensing wipers
2 keys + owner's manuals

Maintenance includes:
new Bridgestone Potenza S007A tires (a street / track combo tire that's the replacement for the RE-11)
new brake pads
brake fluid flush
new engine air filters
oil & filter change

Clean carfax, no accidents or paintwork, very clean nose, no bolster wear. Very sharp car. Haven't pinned down a price yet but will be somewhere in the mid-40s.
