Boxster is one of the few roadsters on the market that men can still confidently drive and it never change, and fuel efficiency has increased.

As far as “lazy” design goes: Porsche is reknowned for an evolutionary approach with each model change. This is good news for those, such as myself, who own a current 987, as cosmetic changes will be minimal, and though performance is up a little (10BHP in my case) I don’t feel obliged to run down and trade in my current car. Maybe the next model change will see that.

Alex is also correct, as I think Porsche have the optimal slippery shape. Why should they change it for the sake of it. Don’t forget, the current 911 can be seen in the original version that appeared in the Sixties. That’s one visual heritage I like most about the brand.

I can’t wait to afford one of these.

It’s good to dream.

It’s unfair to call Porsche designers lazy, after all, haven’t you seen all the kitchens and kettles they’ve been designing? I think it’s not so much that they are lazy, it’s more that they have a very aerodynamic design and there’s not much they can do with the shape. You can only draw so much on a rectangular piece of paper so all they can really do is draw things on a Porsche shaped car. I think it’s time for a new look. I can’t wait to see what they do with the Porsche “Golf”. Then again, I’m sure I’ll only be disappointed.

Surprising to see there is a limited slip diff (LSD) option. I thought the traction control function of Porsche Stability Management would have eliminated the need for LSD.

I wish Porsches would depreciate faster so I could maybe own a 10 year old model
