The Definitive Porsche Roadster ~ The New Boxster Spyder

The new Boxster Spyder is the lightest car made by Porsche and was designed for open air driving with only a modest cloth top to keep out the weather.

A lightweight version of the mid-engined Porsche Boxster roadster, the Spyder, represents the true, purist form of the Porsche sports car - light, powerful, open-roofed and very efficient.
Weighing 1,275 kg, the Boxster Spyder is the lightest model in the Porsche line-up, and continues this clear-cut philosophy in a package offering full homologation for the road, and fulfilling a popular wish expressed by Porsche customers.
The new model becomes the third version in the Boxster range, joining the Boxster and Boxster S, yet at first sight stands out clearly from the other models.
