I guess it was more of a knock on the engine than the Boxster itself.

"..overbraked for its performance and weight...its just the frustration that even this mighty 3.8-liter flat six fails to acclerate the SP370 as well as these (uprgraded) brakes can stop it-making the mix feel subjectively unbalanced."
all that money and time and they still aren't satified because the brakes are TOO GOOD???

Who is driving this car???

I guess maybe its a case of less bark than bite?

Really now, if a 3.8 huge by P-Car historical standards still leaves driver yearning then what's the point of adding the "power game" to the Boxster equation.

THE BOXSTER IS NOT A TOP FUEL FUNNY CAR!!!
I think I'm going to have to write Excellence a letter on this one. Please no more reviews unless you (or a pro) have tracked the car. Hopefully we'll see this project car making an appearance in another magazine like Road and Track.
