Um, yes. Before my Z, I've owned and tracked a boxster s for the last for years... all the necessary luxuries, with nothing unnecessary I agree... still, it only got light after I swapped out parts from the factory for aftermarket... had it down to 3050 with driver... even then, had 7" nav/dvd, a/c, even door and door handles!
... porsche is all about balance and handling, not absolute min weight... And, yes, I've driven Ruf cars as well... here's a couple pics from a recent 'pilgrimage' I made to Pfafenhausen... door handles everywhere
Ruf customers are not driving at the racetrack, they are generally mega-rich guys driving on the street or collecting
I'm personally looking forward to a new Rx-7 ! Had a gen 1 ('79) and gen 2 ('85)... wrecked both sadly, so hopefully now with a few more gray hairs I can keep the next one out of trouble!
First one especially was a great car!
