Car and Driver reports 2014 sub-Boxster Options

I know we've beaten this topic to death in prior threads, but this strikes me as the most mainstream, trustworthy media source to report on it...

The May 2010 issue of Car and Driver, on page 58, lists the "2014 Porsche 'Baby Boxster'" as one of the 25 upcoming models worth waiting for.

Here's a webcam photo of the artist's rendering from the magazine.


They report it will start under $40,000. Not exactly 914 territory - IIRC, that's what they said about the first-gen Boxster too.

Anyway... here's hoping they call it the 914.

Heck, long as I'm IBTL:

Just like in the '70s, the carmakers will whine and bitch and moan and give us their doomsday scenarios. Then they'll meet the standard by 2016 and spend the next 20 years adding bloat, power, luxury, etc. to cars while staying within the CAFE limits.

Then next time there's a mandate for a mileage increase, they'll start the process over again.

There is nothing new under the sun.
