No, it is not true.

The story is mixed up with a real problem with late '98 Boxsters covered Here . Look under Slipped Sleeve

So there are "approximately" what... 97'~07' ten years, avg 25K cars built per year, so 250 thousand boxsters cruising around? That explains why I see literally, 4 boxsters a day where I live. (San Jose) Thats cool!

Hi,

I think that avg. is high - 20-22k/yr. seems like a better number to me...

Hi,

It's Porsche's Annual Report and you can find it online. The one attached is Porsche's '04 Annual Report.

Porsche does not distinguish between Base, 'S', nor between Boxster/Cayman Base or 'S' since these are Boxster variants, or between Manual/Tiptronic S. It's an Annual Report, so simplfication is the goal and they only list total Boxster Production.

But, for Boxsters alone, Base and 'S' are 50/50 since '00, Manual/Tiptronic S are 50/50 since '97. For this reason, there are 56,934 more Boxster Base Models ('96, '97, '98, '99) than there are 'S' models. Hope this helps...

Happy Motoring!... Jim'99
