This made me laugh out loud- so sad

I am a fan of the Boxster- great cars, best "affordable" roadster out there- (Elise is sweet too)-- anyway, we all know of the horrid 959 kits etc that have ruined good ol 911's over the years- so sad to see a "good one" go down, sacrificial lamb . . .

I laughed out loud when I saw this- I mean, really, this is skimpy- reminds me of those guys who pretend they're all buff and walk around all flexed up with their arms all raised even though they are 160 pound wimps- not that the Boxster is a wimp (they're great!) but really, it's no Carrera GT, what is really? There is no substitute . . .

This one isn't fooling anyone! NO-BO-DY!

this is comical!

"...IT IS TARGA OR CONFERTABLE"

does that mean the roof goes down, or that it feels nice to sit in??

Seriously, from a distance (say, Guatemala), in the right light (new moon at midnight), if you squint (with welders goggles on) it does look a bit like a GT. Kinda like how most chicks look better at closing time I guess.

Spend all that money, and if I didn't have my glasses on I'd think I saw an MR spyder...(from the front).

Can you imagine showing up here being the proud owner of your new purchase. Your first post brags: My New 911 Slayer, What Do You Think?

I'm amazed he spelled 'Carrera' correctly....

Then again, it could have been a mistake.

It looks like a Halloween costume for an MR2.

"This is your Porsche..... this is your Porsche on crack"

That car definitely qualifies for a Porsche on crack! So sad.

I think you guys are all jealous of his car......

It actually isn't that bad-- besides pretending to be something it isn't and lots of people on this board are guilty of that (think RSR, RS, R replicas). Before I get thrown off this board, I agree an RS replica is slightly different but still in the same vein of making the car look like something it isn't.

BTW, 75% of people wouldn't know that his car is not a Carrera GT....

That's not surprising, given that 98% of people don't know what a Carrera GT is.

An RS replica is just that, something that at least visually reasonably replicates an RS.

To call that Boxster a "replica" of a Carrera GT is a joke.
