2008 Porsche Boxster: the lowdown

Porsche is preparing a string of revisions for the evergreen Boxster. Due for the 2008 model-year, the roadster will be given a visual nip 'n' tuck, as well as some important mechanical changes. You'll spot the tweaked Boxster at the front by new LED auxiliary strip lights like on the 911 Turbo, while the disguise around the headlamps suggests that the main lights will also be redesigned. The whole front bumper will be discreetly reprofiled, too.

And what about the rear of the Porsche Boxster? Much change there?

LED lights will be added to the rear of the Boxster, too; you can just make out the bright shape of the diodes through the gloom of this scoop shot snatched during winter testing in Scandinavia. Although these photographs are of the Boxster, many of the changes - including the LED lights and reprofiled bumpers - will also appear on the Cayman coupe. Expect to see the new Boxster at this autumn's Frankfurt Motor Show.
