I don't know the answer to how the backup lights work, but those lenses are the ones from some special "550 edition" Boxster. I saw them on the Suncoast Porsche site recently.

Anyone who rides motorcycles is familiar with this. Polarized lenses behind a tinted shield do funny things.

I drove a 2007 335i coupe this week. That's an impressive car. The 328 wasn't all that special, but the 335 is fast, tight and has power all through the range.

Oh. You got the little engine :D I actually like the R6 better than the R1. Smaller and lighter and still a lot faster than I am.
