Hi everyone, first post here..
I've read an interview with Walter Röhrl in a magazine where they tested the new facelifted 911, he then said that the new 911 was really great and so on, but he also mentioned the Boxster and said that the new one is going to be something extra..
First of all, I guess it's quite obvious that it will get redesigned, but are we talking about a facelift or a complete new car? It's been out for 4 years now, so I guess a brand new model might be to much to ask for.
Anyway, what we will get is the new Direct Fuel Injection, which should add 25-30hp.
PDK gearbox should be available as optional, and perhaps some new wheels and colours.

It makes no sense for there to be a Boxster RS, there might be a harder variant, but it won't be badged an RS ( god willing ).
