  1. So , started to have some more spirited drives in the 25 , letting the revs build , and some full throttle bursts , sounds fabulous going through the gears and rev range , but underwhelming and muted on the way down , holding gear through corners and downshifting, all far too muted , no overrun burble in any mode , all together very disappointing, while the RS60 by comparison just feels and drives better , with a fantastic soundtrack at all times , maybe the 25 will sound better as the miles increase but its crying out for a good aftermarket exhaust….

    My Lotus Emira should be arriving very soon , late July , so probably late August , It’s a manual first Edition 3.5 , let’s see how that drives and sounds , if it’s a keeper than one of the Boxsters is going and the scales are currently in favour of the 14 year old 987 .

  2. Hi all , so , I cancelled a GTS 4.0 last spring had better things to do with my cash at the time , however still wanting to get another Boxster I bagged a very neat manual RS60, having had one new in 2008 I knew what a peach they were , then maybe a 992 GTS to go with it , I have since ruled it out as they are speccing up at £120k plus , more than I wanted to tie up , then along comes the Emira , looks great , probably £85k ish , so £2k down on launch day to join the priority queue  , that’s me sorted then , hard top and soft top sports cars , but oh no , Friday morning get a call from OPC , got you that Boxster 25 you wanted , October build , need an answer now , hmmmmm , ok then I will have it , £5k down , and replicated the RS60 spec with a few other options , even requested the same build number .So will end up with two special edition Boxster , same colour scheme , 13 years apart , will make for some good pictures , and the Emira hopefully arriving spring 2022 , grab em while ya can .
