Refinement.
If there was a single word to describe the continuous progression of the Porsche Boxster, this might be the one. For Porsche in general, actually. Just look at the 911. Over the decades it has continually evolved, each successive generation building on the prior. You can see it in the design language, always familiar, a continual evolution.
Same goes for all four generations of the Boxster platform. Each one taking the good bits from the one before and refining them into something even better.
With that in mind, and with the help of a friend with a 3D printer, we REFINED the design of the jack 'pucks' to be something a little better.
I know, I know, the refinement link is a bit of a stretch, but with the rain chucking it down all last week and weekend, there's not been a lot of driving to write about. So we 3D printed little 'keys' to allow the pucks to be inserted into the underside of the 718's jack points and then turned 90°, locking them in place.
This holds them to the car, making messing around trying to get them aligned a thing of the past, plus no longer needing to carefully make sure they don't fall off the jack when lifting it into position.
A touch of coloured marker to indicate the correct orientation and there you have it.
Pucks refined.
(now to clean those filthy rockers!!!)
