Default Spyder Featured in Panorama

The January 2022 issue of “Panorama” magazine is a Special Design Issue featuring four special Porsches: GT3 Touring, Carrera GT, 987 Boxster Spyder, and 356B Coupe. Interesting company that the 987 Spyder keeps. In the article, the Spyder is paired with another iconic mode of transport: the Concorde. Hmmm….

IMHO, no less random than the pairing of the 911 GT3 Touring and the GM EMD F7 diesel locomotive!

I'm always in for reading more about design / design analysis, but this year's essays were too meta!

Just like the blind boar occasionally finding an acorn, my decision (finally) to get mine 15 months ago is starting to look like Pure Genius! 😁

Just read the article last night! Fairly gushy about the 987 Boxster Spyder (expected for a design issue). I appreciate the call out that you could get it with a radio/ac delete but does that really matter. Maybe matters to some but personally I am super glad that I can bomb up the road on a hot day with the A/C blowing, AC/DC blaring, and a silly *** smile. Man I love my Spyder…

My two passions: aviation and sports cars. I was like a kid in the candy store, especially when that sports car is a 987 Spyder.
