Boxster spyder
Check this thing out at porscheusa.com
From briefly scanning the info standard items:
176 lbs lighter than a standard boxster
no AC, no radio, no mechanized roof, no cup holders, no door storage compartments
lightest 19 inch wheels Porsche makes
RS door pulls
sport bucket seats
aluminum doors
red belts
special aero
20 mm lower sports suspension
LSD
320 hp
black exhaust
$61200 (only $3200 more than the S)
I'm probably missing a few other items as I read through the info rather quickly. I've considered replacing my S2000 with a boxster for some time. I've been waiting for something like this from Porsche and the price seems more than reasonable. I just hope you can add the radio back in.

That Spyder is hot as hell. All the right specs. And if for some reason my RS allocation doesn't come through I would buy one of these in a freakin heartbeat.
The boxster/cayman at PSDS on the autocross were awesome to drive. With the superb specs of this car, you may well spank a 911 on a road course. For sure a non-s version.
GO PORSCHE!

OMG, a step in the right direction indeed!!!
2,800lbs, LSD, 320HP (20-30 more with software?) 7,200RPM...all for $60k. This totally makes up for the Pana.
