The case of the missing Boxster boot logo!

Does anyone know why some Boxsters do not have the Boxster name logo on the rear boot, but rather have a plain lid? I noticed this on a early model- is this an import or what?

Just curious

Curious T ... It's personal choice. The Boxster Badge gets nice and dirty in no time and also some prefer the plain look. I have had all my Boxsters de-badged and the first example back in early 1997 use to have people behind arguing what the car in front was [;)]

Amusing at the time as the Boxster was a rare old site back then .....
 
It is a no-cost option to have the model designation deleted.

Or,

You can do as I did, and order with the badge, then remove it by sawing with dental floss through the double-sided tape holding that holds it on.
A quick polish to remove any trace of adhesive - and voila!
One clean and tidy badge-free rear end, which is easier to clean and dry (no snagging the badge with the drying cloth).

And you get a free souvenir!

Nope you are not imagining it ... Boil a kettle of water and pour it over badge the glue melts instantly and the badge lifts off dead easy [8D][:eek:]
 
It looks far better with out it.

When I first had the car, 4 years ago, it was quite amusing watching the people in the car behind at traffic lights craning their necks trying to identify what car it was.

JCB..
 
I agree they look a lot better debadged, but this would confuse a few people
