Porsche Boxster, never really been a fan of the looks. Just seen the new 2013 model. Wow what a looker. Never been in any doubt of its driving appeal or capability's, but the looks always left me underwhelmed. Have to sat the 2013 model is looking like a good candidate for my mid life crises car i will treat my self to this year.


Yes a very nice looking car IMHO

Save yourself more than a few K and get a Mk3 MR2. Looks very, very similar.

That's silly. The Cavalier convertible had a back seat, so it's much more like a 911 cabrio.

ETA: Maybe you guys need to open your eyes.

p.s. nothing wrong with this fact btw, the mk3 is a good looking car in its own right.

Only if you're visually illiterate and have a bag over your head and it's pitch black and you have your back turned... biggrin

Thanks for illustrating my point even better.

If you people don't see how similar they are, well...I am flabbergasted.

Would tend to agree with OP that's a very good looking car.


The first one looks dawdy the one before this in "S" spec looks ok (as given a new one is £50k) and really smart money would be on one of those for c£10k.

No, you're right. Except for the one tiny detail that the MR2 is fkING HIDEOUS and the Porsche is a bit of a looker. Aside from that they're identical.

biggrin

They look like they are closely related to my eye. This is in no way a bad thing the Mk 3 MR2 is a good looking car.

I agree, the new boxster looks really nice from the front. I like the looks of the mk3 mr2 aswell.
