As so often happening with other brands so it's happening here with Porsche because IMO the biggest rival to the 991 sales doesn't come from another brand but from in-house.
Some Porsche Boxsters will be built by VW - report Taking over for Valmet Porsche used to rely on Valmet for overflow production, but output of its sports cars ended at the Finnish plant last year.
That statement might work in some countries but here no Porsche convertible or not is regarded as a girl's car.
This boxster is one of those rare cars where i'm willing to let go of my distaste for convertibles and appreciate it's beauty.
Its a truly gorgeous car. The looks of a Ferrari and finesse too but at the priced of an Audi or BMW.

It's not excessive. It just about the standard basket value of options ticked by a Porsche buyer. I love the reviews so far but a part of me thinks the car would be in near Carrera GT level with sports tires and a 450hp engine.
Haven't driven one only talked to my friend who is sales manager at the dealers and he says the new Boxster and Cayman are on another level, the balance and poise they have is unreal. Hopefully I'll get an invite over to Silverstone soon to drive one for myself.
