Sorry I have to disagree. A week ago I had my 99 Boxster in for an emergency repair (window would not go down so I could not close the door). While waiting I almost bought a 981 they had on the floor. The dealer was very sneaky, had a totally base car at $50,000 in a great color combo.I fell in love. Luckily (as I am unemployed) I restrained myself (I also refused a test drive since I know my resolve would have faded LOL). So you see I do LOVE the look of the car.

HOWEVER, the other day I noticed what I thought was an MR2 on the road in oncomming traffic. It looked strange, so I took a second look only to realize it was a 981 :-( From photos and even a quick live glimpse it does resemble an MR2.
