With the advent of the superbegeerlijke Cayman GT4 should be the small cabriorijder at Porsche, of course, also be operated. The picture above seems to point to a new (RS) Spyder version of the Boxster.

Of the previous Boxster (987) came out in 2007, RS60 Spyder version (1960 copies) on the market. In addition to some nice lightweight frilly resulted in the cabrio with the sports exhaust a little more horsepower than the regular Boxster S, 302 instead of 295 horsepower. Later (in 987 Mk.2) a Spyder that with 320 horsepower, 10 hp more than the Boxster S.

The current generation Boxster (981) is available as a 2.7 with 265 hp or 3.4 (GTS) with 315 (330) hp. How a Spyder here in-between or above would fit the question, but the new Cayman GT4 also offers opportunities for an open derived.

In the US, a Boxster with a Spyder-roof and a registration number of Porsches German test area spotted, on nice big rims. It seems therefore, that there is again a Spyder is come, about the specs, we can only speculate. I expect myself that it is definitely not as rough as in the GT4, but who knows… (via Planet-9)
