El 981 Boxster en Gran Canaria!

Hey guys, here are a few pics from the Boxster launch event in Gran Canaria! The new 981 is an unbelievable car and an even bigger step forward for the Boxster line than the 991 was for the 911 in my opinion. Outstanding performance and road feel are two things we would obviously expect from the new Boxster, but it also feels like a far more substantial car on the inside while still maintaining it's mid-engine sports car roots. The new center console adopted originally from the Carrera GT is a fantastic addition and the seats on the new Boxster are much more comfortable than those found in the previous generation. It's a great car and I know you all will love it!

Great Job Geoffy,
I love the picture From the Black Boxster. Now I am not to sure about how would I order it. These are my two options:

Red Boxster S / Black Leather - SportTechno Wheels Black or Carrera S wheels Black

Black Boxster S / Black Leather - SportTechno Wheels Black or Carrera S wheels Black

I would include everything, Bose sound system, PASM, PTV, Sport Exhaust, etc.. etc..

Not to sure how the SportTechno wheels would look Against the Carrera S.

I`ve wrapped my mind around this new beauty lately and a big question came up,...

so why except for the 911 heritage and prestige should one opt for a base Carrera instead of this Mini CGT?


just awesome by any means!

Nice video. Listen to the throttle blips on downshifts, sounds very cool! Also shows that all the demo cars appear to have PDK...

The video is interesting since there are both 981's and 987's in the groups that drive around the track. It's obvious how much more "aggressive" the 981 looks, especially from behind!
