Much like the exterior's treatment, Porsche has worked to recreate the atmosphere and style of the 550 Spyder in the Boxster. Here, much like the original, oxblood and silver is the predominant color theme. The deep red leather covers the seats, door panels and steering wheel, while a similar treatment upgrades the dashboard. All trim items, such as the door pulls, transmission tunnel, shifter gate and handbrake are finished in silver. Standard equipment is equivalent to that of a fully loaded Boxster S, including climate control, a hi-fi self-adjusting stereo system, and a wind buffer device.

Destined to become a collector car this special edition's price has yet to be announced, but don't expect it to come cheap! Still, compared to the original it will be much more attainable.
