Only 500 (250 Boxster and 250 Boxster S versions) will be produced. They will have many standard features that normally are
options on the Boxster/Boxster S line, including black wheels with silver rims, Porsche’s SportDesign body-kit package and an
Alcantara-trimmed interior.
Topping the value-added standard exterior and technical features is the SportDesign package that includes spoiler lips that
mount on the standard front trim, an automatically extending and redesigned rear spoiler, and modified rear
trim with integrated diffuser not only provides a more striking and sportier appearance, it also improves aerodynamics by
reducing lift on both the front and rear axles without increasing aerodynamic drag.
A performance-enhancing sport exhaust system with silver-colored twin tips is included, and the safety bars, designed to help
protect occupants, stand out when dressed in 911 GT3 RS orange paint. Complimenting the orange paint are the black exterior
side mirrors and front and side air inlets, the car’s model designation in black on the rear deck, and a black convertible top.
The orange and black motif carries over to the interior with seats, carpet, dash, door panels and other surrounding soft
surfaces in black and orange adorning the interior trim pieces such as the door lever surrounds, the trim panel covering the
dash-mounted cup holders, and the shift pattern on the gear shift lever. Adding to the performance theme is the use of
Alcantara trim, a suede-like material used on performance Porsches like the 911 GT3 and 911
GT3 RS. Alcantara is pleasant to touch, but it also helps occupants stay planted in the interior during aggressive driving.
Alcantara trim is used on the three-spoke steering wheel from the 911 GT3 RS, the seat inserts and handbrake lever.
The Limited Edition Boxster and Boxster S roadsters start with the proven Porsche Boxster platform. To this day, print and
broadcast automotive media worldwide have picked the Boxster/Boxster S and their Cayman/Cayman S
coupe siblings as the winner of numerous sports car comparisons, and have presented many prestigious industry awards to the
Boxster model line, including Car and Driver Magazine’s 10Best Award eight of the past 10 years and
three Automobile Magazine All Star Awards.
Official pricing has not been
determined.
