[Video] The New Porsche Boxster S Roars Runs Like a Million Bucks, Costs $60K

Listen o the roar of the all-new 2013 Porsche Boxster.
Porsche has just released a new promo video for their all-new 2013 Boxster S. The roadster roars, combining power and performance with an extremely modest price tag for a luxury convertible.

The base 2013 Porsche Boxster runs on a 2.7-liter flat-six with 265hp while the Boxster S packs a 3.4-liter flat-six plant rated at 315hp. Both engines can be mated to either a standard six-speed manual or an optional seven-speed PDK. The standard Boxster will hit 60 mph in 5.4 seconds while the S will do the job in 4.7 seconds.The 2013 Porsche Boxster prices at $49,500, while the Boxster S starts at $60,900. With prices like those, affording a luxury roadster combined with sports car handling has never been easier. Both trims will be making their North American debut this week at the New York Auto Show.

Mansory-Tuned Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Roadster Riding on HRE Wheels

HRE Wheels has released their latest pair of shoes, modeled by a Mercedes SLS AMG Roadster.
HRE Wheels has found the perfect model to show off their latest set of wheels - the
Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG. The venerable roadster seen here has been tuned by Mansory and features their 'Soft Kit,' which is fitting since the German tuners are known for their outlandish aftermarket programs and HRE clearly wants the attention drawn to their latest set of wheels.The modular three-piece 794RS rims by HRE are ultra-light thanks to 6061-T6 forged aluminum.
The material is aerospace quality, meaning that you won't see these gray and silver finished wheels very often when you cruise around in your customized SLS AMG Roadster.
Speaking of the SLS AMG Roadster, the outfit from Brand, Germany, has outfitted the Mercedes model with a bodykit made out of carbon fiber. It includes a spoiler lip on the stock front bumper, new hood fitted with gills, aerodynamic side skirts and a rear lip spoiler with optimized diffuser.
Check out the 'Soft Kit' bodywork from Mansory on the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Roadster and the 794RS wheels by HRE and let us know what you think about this subtle combination.
