Is it me or isn't this is the type/variation of model Porsche - and quite frankly any other manufacturer who produces competition minded autos - ought to be producing all of the time. It doesn't even need the extra power so much as it could use a less-is-more approach (except for the price). Porsche should offer "stripper" boxsters and caymans in the same vein as the GT3, with less weight, less frills and a lower price tag to attract a more enthusiast crowd.
Mazda should also do this with their Miatas, and perhaps even the 3 and 8. I think there could be a significant enthusiast market for cars like this (let's face it, most of them are weekend/3rd cars anyway - save for the mainstream Mazda 3 and 8). The only options should be: beefier roll-bar/cage, racing seats, sport suspension. I'd think a stripped-down, sub or right at $20K Miata would be a winner (remember when you could buy one brand new like that? I know I do!). What they have now is too bloated, and I'm sure the same can be said of the Boxster/Cayman lineup.
Manufacturers it's time to stop catering to the fat and lazy croud and at least have an offering that gets back to what made your cars great (and attracted all the attention to them) in the first place!
Sorry for the rant, but I've felt this way for a while. Seeing the article I linked to above just sent me off!!!
In fact, I seem to recall stripping one apart that only had 80 miles on it - we invalidated the warranty in just about every way possible.
