Anybody know what type of spoiler this is?

He's got an "RS" badge on the back...guess he lost his Type R.

Rollbar extensions may be mandated by some sanction bodies for track events, but I doubt that car has ever seen a track...only the local ricer hang-out.

... and AFAIK it's the only OEM Boxster RS ever made.
I saw it in 2008 at BRBS and I can tell you that it is an incredible machine.
Factory RS tuning on the engine, tons of Carbon Fibre and PCCB.





Happy Boxstering,
Pedro

an ugly one.

I cannot believe the factory would produce something that ridiculously fugly...
there must be more to this story.

Anyone out there old enough to remember JC Whitney? We used to kid that cars like that were magnetized and driven through their warehouse.

Haha I just ordered heat shield tubing from them, they are still kicking. Remember the hood ornament collections they had? Including a man thumbing his nose which lit up... Before you guys go running for the credit cards, I think they discontinued it.

I suspect what happened was that Porsche did build the car to RS specs for the owner, but that the owner personalized the car by adding on the multitude of tacky Porsche crest decals on the side of the spoiler and top of the trunklid and then tacked on an RS badge on the rear portion of the bumper. It may be an amazing Boxster, but it sure ain't pretty.

it's def not as bad as those park benches.
