Anymore in the wild ?

It would seem that some asian (Chinese?) markets are getting four cylinder motors in their 25s. I assume this would be the same spec as the 2.5GTS?

At 13:10 they have a shot of the exhaust and it seems pretty conclusive.

Yeah. Strange. Why would some be the 2.5 ?
A big attraction for me is the 4l 6cylinder engine
Although the 2.5 in the boxster s I’ve driven recently is
Really good IMO

I stand corrected !!

I was somewhat surprised too when I found out.

A strange beast but clearly works for the Chinese market and their tax rates. A lot of the promotional shots show the car in Frozen Berry too.

Their Spyders also have a GTS front end.

My May delivered car, had arranged to have the gold front bits wrapped in silver pre delivered, but once it arrived it looked good, a lot better than the pictures. driven 1100 miles in it now.

Agreed, it looks much nicer in the flesh, more subtle. Really looking forwards to getting mine.

Good read cheers

My 25 edition goes into build tomorrow apparently.

[Voodoo Blue]

Had a great time at the PCGB event at Brands Hatch today with lots to see and some great racing. I also managed to find two B25s the first of which was all black and looked fantastic with the Neodyme bits added, very JPS if you can remember those. And a GT Silver with all the red bits which I still think is the best colour for this model although I'm still happy I've gone black inside.

Hopefully mine will be going into build in 2 weeks fingers crossed

B25 is a classy looking thing.
That black one at Brands belongs to a friend, really nice car.

I had a chat to the owner of that gt silver 25 at brands today. Nice chap. Looked v good .
The black car also had black hood and interior so missed the point a bit for me.
Super day out.
Helps i live 10 minutes away.
