Cool looking, but for $7,000 plus shipping and handling, I think I can find better uses for the cash. That's a lot of money to turn a boxster into a cayman wannabe!

very nice, pictures always seem to have alot of finger prints on the car. Yeah for $7000 bucks, it better be a targa or have an automatic sun roof.

How about a convertible top for $0?

that looks really good. im sure that if it was like 300 bux wed be all over it, but since its so much money we call it rice but deep inside we just cant justify getting one for that much cash. if it was dirt cheap i know id have one, but well thats not the case so i dont have one

i bet that thing would look nice as hell if the windows were tinted and tails changed to updated ones, and some nice wheels

yeah that looks pretty cool...$7000 is not affordable, to make the car a hardtop....kinda dumb to spend that much to go backwards, n get a roof.

True that, might as well sell the boxster and buy a Cayman.

Question Why?

Why would anyone put a top on the Boxster? A lapse of reason perhaps.

Would a hardtop like this get you around the SCCA/PCA broomstick rule for track days?
But I agree with the others, for 7 grand, I can thick of other things I would buy.

I wonder how long it takes to convert back to a drop top. Cool idea but not too practical.

When people risk their lives, shouldn't it be for something very important?
Well, it better be.
But what is so important about driving faster than anyone else?
Lots of people go through life doing things badly. Racing's important to men who do it well.
When you're racing, it's life. Anything that happens before or after is just waiting.
