It looks like the right hand door sill reads 'Boxster' and the left hand one is spaced to read 'Boxster S', but you can't quite read it in the light.
well spotted !!
Blimey 458, are you Inspector Morse or something? How did you spot that!

i apologise to all 981 owners in advance but the spyder looks the dogs up against the 981.now how about a picture with the roofs off to show the spyder in all its glory.
the 981 is now a more jap/mercedes cab. and the spyder pure porsche!

SFO:

have you also found the annoying need to disassemble the key to unlock/lock the main glove box?

I also found the the other internal storage areas small; centre console storage is too shallow and the door pocket doors are too low.

not tried lock/unlock main glove box ..

agree re:storage areas .. but still love the car.

I have some felt pads ready to stop the clanking noise caused by the passenger seat belt buckle hitting the plastic panelling while going over bumps.

Guys,
Is there more space in seats of the new 981 as I am 6ft 4in and could never get comfortable in the 987 seemed like another couple of degrees recline or couple of inches seat travel would of been perfect. Is the 981 any bigger interior space wise?
Thanks

I'm the same height as you (although im built like a brick sthouse and am a company director) and the 981 I sat in does appear to be more roomy than my Spyder.

Certainly, I could get comfiest in the 981.

Love the car - it looks superb. In fact, I've changed my spec to be almost identical. Just a quick question about the inside of the red roof though? Is it Red or Black?

Thanks for the confirmation! Thought red might be just that little step too far!

Full red leather is perfect. Even Jimmy Dean specced it.

It's a friggin' sports car. Why would you want it big?

Anyway, interdesting pics. Prefer the 981 front, but prefer 987.2 rear.
