Well done mate and glad you are enjoying it..... if anything like the 987 it will only get better the more you drive it (like the S2000).

One thing I would say is that I felt the same about PASM sport mode being a bit too firm for normal UK roads but forced myself to drive in sport mode for a few days....... you soon get used to it and I now drive 95% of the time in sport (I have PASM and Chrono) and only turn it back to normal when on really bad roads or when sat in traffic. Sport mode in the wet is great fun....... as PSM kicks in much later than a non chrono car you can get the back out quite a bit before being interfered with....... you can have a nice controlled slide without any PSM activation but if you mess up it WILL help you out.

Give us another review after you've run her in!

 

Lucky bugger!

You will have to shrink your pics using Paint or Photoshop, then relaod them I think.

Should have got the dealer to include the coloured wheel caps though, the b/w ones just look a little wrong.

There you go your first mod and only ~

Looks great Good luck with it, I'm sure its going to be loads of fun!

Only criticism is the alloys... my favourite Porker alloys are the new Carrera S ones.

I would go for yellow too

 

In the flesh I like, pictures don't seem to do it justice.

Have sort of been thinking about Porkers for a while, priced up a new turbo earlier, stopped configuring it when it went above

 

Looks very

 

I think that's a fair enough description. There are obvious improvements to bolting a roof onto a Boxster in terms of rigidity, and yes by all accounts it seems to have the same 3.4 litre engine as the early 996's.

But the way Porsche have put it all together I really think it is a car in its own right. And a pretty one too.

 

Im not a porker fan and those pictures make it more so.

The whole rear quarter, the front bumper, the wheels and tacky alloy trim make it look like some cheap ass Korean coupe.

 

I hate porkers but somehow i think i will probably own one at some point, however this is basically a Boxster coupe isn't it?
