The two-seater mid-engine roadster used advanced technology to build on Porsche’s Spyder tradition. Following the overwhelming response to its appearance as a showcar, the decision was taken to go into production with it. For technical reasons the actual Boxster departed from the design study, but it was still accepted as a true-blooded Porsche. While already incorporating certain features of the later 911 generation, it always retained its independent identity.
