They only made 250 but I've seen two of them already. I guess we have a big chunk of the Porsche buying world here in New Jersey, saw one at the mall in Paramus Saturday.
I don't know whose bright idea that was but the thing was covered in finger prints...a rare car deserves better treatment than that. I used to think yellow was the best flashy sports car color but I think orange takes it. It looks great at night under the street lights and has a great shine during the day. What a head turner.

The GT3 alcantara interior treatment was a nice touch, hadn't noticed that before.

Congratulations....... You will be so happy with your choice!

I picked up my 2008 Boxster S "RS Orange" Limited Edition #17 of 250 on Oct 20th and have been in Heaven ever since.

It's so easy to keep clean. The Black rims have grown on me a lot, plus they too stay clean so much longer than standard rims.

No regrets here.

Enjoy!

Did Porsche manufacture 250 S and base LE? Or 250 S, 250 Base?

Nice to know there's something out there more likely to get pulled over than me. I usually try to drive 1/4 of a mile behind a hot blonde in a flashy car -- but I'd happily go for anybody driving an orange boxster.
