Ah those extra intakes are new from the one I saw when it was originally posted. I bet they get destroyed in no time on the road!

Forgotten which mag this is featured in this month, but in terms of cost it was 'if you have to ask you can't afford it'.

Its a shame about the price as it removes the boxsters blandness and makes it a far more desireable car to my eyes.

It's 250,000 euros - which is about £170,000.

It's the automotive equivalent of a hand-made Saville Row suit, but sadly it's priced accordingly.

250k was a bit high, now it is 190k euro.

I love it, have not driven it, but the orange one is "sans" kompressor and develops 360bhp, and is very quick.

The black one with the kompressor is very fast,

Interesting that the intakes are so low - the original boxster prototype had them like that and porsche were forced to move them higher due to the amount of crap which got sucked into and destroyed the engine...wonder how Ruf will make it work?
