To commemorate the 1960 Sebring win by Hans Herrmann and Olivier Gendebien in a Type 718 RS 60 Spyder, Porsche is building a limited run of Boxster RS 60 Spyders.
Using the same front-end treatment as Porsche's SportDesign package, the RS 60 Spyder has a more aggressive stance, thanks to spacers that move the 19-in. wheels further outboard, more completely filling the wheel arches. Dual tailpipes and modifications to the exhaust system bump output from the 3.0-liter flat-6 from 295 to 303 bhp. And the Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM) is made standard equipment.
The RS 60 Spyder is painted in silver metallic paint, while the interior in trimmed in Carrera Red, with a matching red convertible top. A dark gray interior with black top is an available option. Other interior touches include a racing-inspired gearshift lever and the removal of the binnacle atop the gauges, which have been set farther apart, which adding to the competition feel of the cockpit.
Only 800 of the 1970 cars slated for production are destined for the U.S., with sales beginning after the car's North American debut at the New York International Auto Show in March. The RS 60 Spyder will sell for $64,900.
