Porsche has anounced a new "Light" (sort of) version of the Boxster ...
The Spyder weights "only" 1275 kg (2810 lbs) and will have a 3.4Liters 320 HP engine
It has aluminium doors and a "cheapo" soft top "a la" Lotus Elise.
And of course it is a sucessor of the 550 ... bla bla bla (usual marketing shit)
