I like the front bumper, but the back looks like an anime character.

Looks good, but all pretty subtle stuff - nothing on the surface that would make me wish I'd waited...I'm interested to hear what's under the skin, though - maybe SAT radio and a standard disc changer that plays mp3s, among other things! What would the world come to then...

I love the look of every model year Boxster. Nice to know that won't change with the '08.

The Winding Road daylight pic is what makes me question their veracity.

It seems pretty obvious that the photographer took a pic of a 987 with a Tequipment Sport Design bodykit and since it looked "different" assumed that it was an 08 face-lift.

The daylight pic just looks like someone modded a base boxster with the bodykit, a set of tail-lights off of e-bay and added an "S" tail pipe.

A face-lift also implies engine changes, which they just did in '07, so the timing seems a little off.
