I watched the video and was frankly shocked that after the driver mows down 11 people, he calmly gets out of the car and walks away without rendering any aid to the guy laying on the ground in front of him. Unbelievably callous. I'd be surprised if this guy doesn't end up in jail for this.
Edit: There is no way he had PSM engaged. These cars just don't break loose like that on dry pavement. He was probably trying to squeal wheels for the crowd and turned PSM off.

With the proliferations of C & Cs and the need to show off for the video bloggers afterwards, this was bound to happen. Won't be long before businesses will refuse to host them for liability purposes.

The general public can't tell apart car models. They just know "stupid Porsche owners"

Installed GT4 front lip. Pics as well
981 Boxster Spyder ChatShout out to the Freed Performance guys who are local to me for doing such a great job. I am definitely going back there again for future upgrades. Very happy. Always had spoiler envy and this scratched the itch! Let's hope now I don't scratch the front lip soon! Was a bit nervous pulling...- 3

Should I Trade my 981 Spyder for a 718 ???
981 Boxster Spyder ChatKind of had thoughts in back of my head about possibly trading my 2016 Spyder with 6000 miles for an 2020 718 Spyder. New car warrantee; bigger engine, more HP, bigger wheels & tires, PASM, Car Play, backup camera. I like some things that are new like Apple Car Play since 2016 can't do anything...- 56

Has anyone seen a Spyder on the road?
981 Boxster Spyder ChatApart from the lucky people who already have their own Spyder, has anyone seen one on the road? I live in Orange County (California), which is usually a haven for all things Porsche - but haven't seen one on the road.- 31

Configuration questions for a 2016 Spyder owner
981 Boxster Spyder ChatA couple of questions (so far...) ;) Is the included shifter a Short throw model (SSK) and or was it available as an option? The roll bar, when unpainted, I know it has a non-smooth finish, but did it come in other colours to match the interior colour? I though I saw a picture where it was...- 24
