I didn’t realize this was out, but there’s some great footage of the coming Porsche Boxster Speedster on both the track and on the street in Germany. Here are the anticipated quick specs: Various aesthetic changes including twin “power domes” Porsche Ceramic Composite Brakes (PCCB) A tuned version of the 3.4-litre flat six engine currently [...]
Porsche Boxster Speedster Pics
September 22, 2009 By 7 Comments
The Internet was abuzz late last week with reports and spy shots of a coming Porsche Boxster Speedster. It appears the car has a redesigned front bumper, new side intakes and a larger rear spoiler. You also have the usual speedster “hump” over the retracted roof (at least based on the pictures I’ve seen). As [...]
2011/2012 Porsche Boxster Spied
September 9, 2009 By 8 Comments
Motor Trend originally reported this as a likely candidate for the 2012 Boxster model, but Global Motors is calling it a 2011 model. Regardless of who you believe, you’ll want to check out the footage above of the test Boxster blasting around the track at the Nürburgring. Most of the changes are fairly subtle. The [...]
Project Roxster – The Ultimate Boxster (P.R. Part 2)
September 2, 2009 By 11 Comments
Yesterday I described what I feel is a gap in Porsche’s mid-engine model lineup. If you missed it, you can read it here: Porsche’s Mid-Engine Gap. My solution to Porsche’s mid-engine model gap? I call it Project “Roxster”: Building a Rocking Boxster. Maybe not quite powerful enough to challenge a Carrera GT, but certainly closing [...]
Porsche’s Mid-Engine Gap (P.R. Part 1)
September 1, 2009 By 7 Comments
When the brand Porsche is the subject of conversation without the benefit of an image, I am betting it’s likely to most that the image of the classic 911 in all its forms one way or another comes to most enthusiast’s minds. It’s without argument the most recognized shape attached to Porsche and quite possibly [...]

Porsche 944…Yesterday’s Boxster
July 10, 2009 By 25 Comments
I was thinking the other morning while in the shower, about the little Boxster argument we’ve seen come up several times over the past few months. Don’t get me wrong, I love the lively discussion and don’t even mind a little name calling here and there as people take sides. All part of what makes [...]

Drive a Porsche for Free

I have a buddy that used to buy and sell used cars. He would always find a great deal on all kinds of cars. Some of my favorites were several Porsches (a 944, a slant nose 911 Turbo look, and a 911SC), a Corvette, and a Mercedes 450SL. The amazing thing was his ability to [...]
Cayman…Cayman…Cayman. Oh, and some Boxster afterthoughts
January 27, 2009 By 9 Comments
I read a couple of interesting articles today, both pimping the Cayman. This despite the second one being ABOUT the Boxster. Both are worth reading even if they are biased towards the Cayman. Even though I’m not a huge Boxster guy, I still think the car deserves a fair shake in it’s own right and, [...]
