I like it, but the cost must be extraordinary. One thing that is impressive is the level you are able to customize your car new from the factory. The Honda S2000 in contrast, if you want a red exterior, it only comes with a black interior, and there are no factory options. Makes the buying decision very easy, but not very unique.

I like the interior. But my 1st Boxster was a white 97 with red leather.

I like it, but I also drive a Orange Infiniti with a matching Orange interior. So, I might have skewed taste . As far as the 70K price, I would buy a 996 GT3!

looks like the same color as some of the cgt's interior.

Nice car, but not a convertible.

Call me crazy but I dig it. It sure beats my plain black interior.

Well, if that interior is really terracotta as claimed, then those photos have some extreme problems with color reproduction! The terracotta I've seen is much more like a dark clay pot, not the bizarre orange in those pictures.
