Something else to think about on a pumped up Boxster is that it really could fit in the line up and could be for two difference customers.

The base 911 starts at 69xxx the Boxster S is 51xxx. That's an 18k gap. That a good amount of room to work with. You could easily make the pumped up Boxster more like the GT3, something for the racer crowd. Make the sport chassis, sport seats, etc. standard. Then you could charge 60k for it.

Poeple would continue buying the 997 for a GT and the Racing Nuts would go after the Boxster RS or whatever they feel like calling it. Also it could easily be made by just using the 3.6 liter engine in the 997 Carrera. I'd be pretty happy with a 325 hp Boxster with high 4 second 0-60 times. They could even detune it 10 hp back to 315 if they felt they needed to..but I'd rather they didn't and with a sports emphasis, I don't think it would be needed.
