SPY PHOTOS: Porsche Boxster and Cayman Facelifts
Little bit more than makeup

Here are the best pictures yet of the facelifted versions of Porsche’s Boxster and Cayman during winter testing in northern Scandinavia. The Boxster already underwent a restyling in 2004, so the new one can be expected in 2008. Both cars will get new front bumpers with LED daylight driving lights as well as re-designed and much rounder air intakes. Furthermore, new rear bumpers and completely new taillights with LEDs are included in these major restylings. Technical improvements are still unknown and so are modifications to the interiors.

Here’s are the clearest photos yet, showing a barely disguised facelifted Cayman during testing at the Nurburgring. The freshened up model will share its new face and LED tail-lights with its sister, the Boxster.

Even though it looks production-ready, it won’t be available until late 2008, giving you plenty of time to save up.

Porsche are obviously trying to increase the appeal of the Cayman, which despite its entry model status, isn't performing well on the sales charts. In this month's EVO, Cayman production is less than half that of the 911 - demand is that weak.

Cayman's biggest problem: it costs more than a Boxster and it shouldn't have to.

The Cayman S is a bargain, despite it's relative lack of power.

I'd take it every day over the over priced and over hyped 911 Carrera.

Give it more power, and preferably a fancy semi-automatic, and it will butcher the 911.

There are rumors going around that the car in that pictures is a Cayman RS. Just look at the non-conjoined dual pipes.

Strange, I always thought the CaymanS was a bargain. Especially when it's the same price as the 335i coupé (in my country at least).

Are you kidding me? In most countries the Cayman S is 30% more expensive.

But that ain't justified IMO...
