I believe it fell off a Honda Civic...

That has to be one of the worse items I have ever seen on a Boxster; or any Porsche, for that matter.

The extra roll bar that looks like it's designed for land based parasailing blows as well.

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.

That car IS an RS...

... 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

Don't let the guys from Brey-Krause know that....
You know I drive with a mounted B-K rollbar all summer as it's too much of a pain in the butt to replace it between track days....
