Your Favorite Detail of the Boxster

[Ronzi]

The roll bars. A much more elegant design solution than the paper clips on the Audi TT, for example.

It's all about the rear, but you have to get low and look at it straight on. Awesome.

I think that comes from the fact of whether the car was originally designed as a convertible or if it was a convertible version of an existing coupe. The Boxster was designed originally as a convertible and thus looks perfect IMHO.
Most of the time when they take a coupe and "chop" the top off, they have to do something with the rear end to make it work and most of the time, they just can't make it look right. I think the 350Z is a perfect example. The coupe is a pretty nice looking car but the convertible's rear end just looks horrible.

As for me, I agree with those who said that the rear 3/4 view of the Boxster with the top down just looks absolutely stunning.

Totally agree. I like mine with the top down, or the hard top on. With the soft top up it just looks funky.

Gotta go with dj on this one

I love the fact that the ignition is on the left, and the fact that the engine is directly behind me...

One other thing, after it's been sitting in the sun for awhile, it just smells so damn good!

Yes, out Boxsters do stimulate all of our senses...sight...sound...smell!

I have not licked mine yet, but it is clean enough to eat off of.

I attached a pic of my '83 911SC. You can see why I love the shape of the Boxster. The front and back bumper panels are rounded and compliament the shape of the car.

The Boxster reflects the 550 and RSR cars which in my eye are some of the best looking cars ever made. Sometimes I just go out in the garage, light a decent cigar and just stare at it.......do I need help???
