Doesn't look like it. The interior is basically 991 interior, they're gonna continue using the same parts, and architecture.
I still dislike the interior totally, just as much as I hate the 991.
The front end however LOOKS FANTASTIC and CLEANER THAN 991! 991 has those smily face looking front DRLs that F*s it up a bit.
I also LOVE the way the new air scoop is sculpted, much cleaner and more aggressive looking! I wish they do that on 991 Turbo, but from leaks, it doesn't look like it.
The rear-end, looks messy, just have to see it in person to see if it works in real life.

Agreed. I'm trying really hard not to surrender my 987S to the $80K idea I configured on the PCNA website. As much as I love turning the key in my current Boxster, this new version has my attention.

I guess I'm in the minority here, I'm not lov'n it all that much.
The front lights and side remind me too much of the Toyota MR-S/MR-2...

I think I still prefer the current Boxster Sypder.

Wow the new boxster looks much better then the 987. The 987 just never looked right to me.
What is the new model line called? The original was the 986 then replaced with the 987.
Edit: Its called the 981
