James Dean Edition Suspension

[dguy535]

Does anyone here know if the James Dean Edition came with M030 suspension? Also, part numbers would be helpful if you know them. I came across a local shop selling a set of Struts from an 04 that they claim are James Dean Edition with less than 20k miles. It's a good deal for a relatively new set of Ft and RR Struts anyway, but I'd rather get the M030 if I'm buying anything. Thanks

I thought the James Dean edition was some of the early 2.5 cars that were silver with red interior and hard top. Is there a chance they are talking about the 2004 Spyder special edition? If so that is M030.

....and the official name is “50 Years of 550 Spyder Edition” Boxster S.

It is an M030 suspension.

You can buy a new M030 from Suncoast Porsche.

Thanks for the feedback. I knew it was available from Suncoast, but these struts are cheap enough that it is worth considering.

Never heard of that but if you want a lifetime warranty on your struts buy Bilstein or Koni
