Ай бұрын

A 987.2 Boxster S will get you most of the way there. Look for the X73 suspension option, which is the same suspension as the Spyder. And then buy a set of APEX VS-5RS or Titan T-S5 wheels with Michelin Pilot Sport 4S tires to get weight reduction at the wheels and you’ll get a lot of the feel of the Spyder. As you fall down the rabbit hole, consider throwing on headers and an exhaust for more weight loss and visceral fun. When the time comes for a new battery, use a LIPO battery for some more weight loss. And if you really get bit by the bug, throw in some aftermarket bucket seats… part of the appeal of the Spyder is how the stock lightweight buckets grab you… but they are too expensive IMO to retrofit, so I’d personally drop in some Recaro Sportster or Pole Position seats to get that feel. All of that will get you pretty close to the same feel as the Spyder, I’ve got a 2011 Spyder, but I am considering a similar plan for a Cayman to build a Cayman R-style car for half the price.

Will a tuned 987 Boxster S (non Spyder) be comparable to this? I’d love to eventually see a comparison video. This car is rad but it’s still a rare spec so they go for a lot of money. Just curious if I could get the same feel out of a 987 Boxster or even Cayman?

@DasCayman

Ай бұрын

If you're referring to the 987.2 Boxster S, you'd be cable to get the same performance, but you wouldn't get the same ambiance / feeling. It's "like" comparing sitting in a base 911 to a 997.2 3RS and the way the car makes you feel when you sit in and walk away from it. That feeling and what it's worth to you is hard to quantify. Similar to comparing a 997.2 GT3 for $180k vs a 997.2 GT3RS for $340k.... is the RS worth the extra price? "No," but it'll tap into that childhood dream better. But everything has a price, because when the car is cheap enough you can get more joy out of a car that is way more expensive. In summary, different ways to access joy and enthusiasm. Hard to give an exact answer. But I will say that I would not sell my Spyder and enjoy having an extra $30k in my account. But we are all different. Hope this helps?

Not so sure that's a car to modify too much. 1/ It will remain a Carrera engine whatever you do 2/ his bouncy behaviour makes it fun to drive and gives the thrill. I should only work on the following points : a) exhaust to give a better note at high rpm due to shy original PSE (but I like it) b) a light flywheel - the original one doesn't convince me for hill and toe and your proposition seems good ! c) maybe a little ajustement on the front end to improve the feeling of the steering (which is a little to light and missing some emotion but I'm very demanding on that point) - but I didn't find what at the moment. Except that I guess It will change the philosophy of the car up to my point of view.
