Sport Auto test (from GCF)

It has to be perhaps the perfect sportscar for today.
The only downside would probably be the price. Porsche has put a pricetag on it of two base Boxsters.
However, those who spend such a money are unlikely to regret it. Considering it's the last ICE car of the Cayman/Boxster line, the price for it will probably be close to the Carrera GT and 918 in the future (if it really would be the last one of course).

please comeback and add you're weird cars

7 speed what? A manual or pdk?

I'm not a fan of all the big fins, takes the elegance out of it. a convertible with an aluminium chassis cannot be a hardcore sportscar. I would have prefered it to be a 9000rpm GT convertible.

this sounds and looks very promising! I also like that they left out the ugly rear wing of the Cayman GT4 RS.
