At the above link they say:

" The basic price for the new Boxster is 37,700 euros. Including sales tax and country-specific requirements, it costs 43,935 euros in Germany. The Boxster S has a basic price of 45,600 euros. With sales tax and country-specific requirements added, this more powerful model costs 53,099 euros."


Figure about $1.25 US dollars per Euro, and it isn't hard to believe our favorite sports car company has jumped up the price of the Box-S in the neighborhood of $9,300. I agree this 15 HP increase is quite pricey especially when one considers a 30 HP increase from the Carrera to Carrera S costs in the neighborhood of $10K US., and that also includes 19" wheels, bigger brakes, and PASM. I don't consider a 295 HP Box-S at $66,375 +/- a bargain compared to the MY 05 and 06 Boxsters and Ss and their corresponding prices.

Just one man's opinion.
