I think it's terrible. Has anyone ever thought I wish my Boxster was longer and wider? They seem to be designing out the best parts of the original 986, the curves! The back looks flat now. It's very...

Yeah I think it was the groupon deal. I'm already planning to do the next class when they come back. Sounds great to thrash somebody else's boxster on the track!

The 914 and 924 were designed to be VWs. The 944 and 968 are just updates of the 924.

I guess the 928 has pop-ups but they are clearly trying to hide the fact that they pop-up. It still looks...

Those Headlights.

Headlights are kinda a big deal for me on sports cars. I refuse to own anything with pop-ups from the '80s, even though there are some great cars.

The first time I saw a boxster in person I...

Think Inside the Box.

If you think the Boxster is small... check it out next to my 1966 Triumph Spitfire Mk2.

In every dimension you could entirely fit the Spit inside the Box with room to spare.
