In the new issue of Excellence magazine, Porsche design chief Harm Lagaay says that "upcoming Boxster variants" are going to knock your socks off (so to speak).

I think he's talking about the coupe. But...

I wonder if Porsche has plans to launch a Boxster Club Sports or RS? Anyone have any inclination?

Only high hopes and dreams! I think Porsche needs a car like that for those of us who can't afford a GT3. Either way, it appears that the Boxster will be part of Porsche for some time to come. And THAT'S good news.

That's what I was hoping the Special Edition 550 Boxster would have been. A lightweight, GT3-style Boxster.

Man, that would have been cool.

The article is a piece ranking the top 10 best Porsche designs. Lagaay's direct quote is, "As for the future Boxster shootoffs? You will love it!"

And he clearly distinguishes this from the 987, which he calls "a beautiful evolution." So there's definitely going to be a Boxster "shootoff" besides the cabriolet.

A lean GT-style coupe would be cool (as would an RS cab). It makes you wonder!

I can't vouch for this photo, but maybe this is what Lagaay is talking about...

Fantastic looking Coupe!!!

I hope it looks like this... (I may have to go and speak to the bank manager.. Again!!)

That's been around for a while, so it's probably an "artist's interpretation". But I hope it looks similar as well. Excellence is speculating something of a Ferrari Dino-esque "flying buttress" look to the back. I hope not. This route would be so much more elegant. Dead sexy, I think...

Make it look like a 904 !!!!


Personally I still think the 904 is one of the prettiest porsche's ever.
