I am suprised that they could only pull 180 pounds out. Aluminum doors: yes, there's a couple of pounds... the manual top should have saved more weight. Maybe the engine cover / hump should be carbon fiber. At $61, there should be a pile of carbon in this car to save weight.

Maybe I'll order one next week... it I can only get those six numbers right!

There are alot of things Porsche could have done with this car. Is it something inamorata going to buy....no. But, I am thankfully they arendoing something with the boxster besides letting it be ignored.

Growing up the car magazines said how amazing Porsches are. Was I brainwashed? Somehow...I doubt it.
