turbo, spyder, ...right.

Maybe I'm just a bit too skeptical. I'm guessing that this is just an 04 base that had some front end damage and got an aftermarket front bumper, thereby making it a "Boxser turbo".
Boxser turbo

Still, it appears to be a decent 04 with 64k miles, so not terrible.

It may be a decent 04, but it has pre-03 ambers on the front - can't tell about the rear lights.

This is a 2000-2002. The rear spoiler and gauge cluster tell all
