I'd bet he didn't get a ticket, the Cop probably was more interested in seeing the car, and seeing how the Boxster would keep up with the "big dog"

Hey it also looks like that CGT had body work done to the rear of front wheel. Might be the angle of the light, but it looks like it doesn't match.

Yep! Is that the explanation or speculation about the difference. I've scrutinized these cars pretty closely and I never noticed that before

Wanna know the truth?

Thats our Boxster they put CHP emblems on for the Palo Alto carshow. That CGT has never had a scratch on it, perrrrrrrfect car.

Nice try though ;-)

Heres another pic we took of Mike Hobgood from Carlsen's Boxster

In the picture the panel doesn't match, so what's the technical explanation?

"technical explanation" is your spending WAAY too much time worrying about it,
must have been lighting or something,
Im telling ya, there is nothing wrong with this car.

What would be really Cool if you photoshopped it in reverse. The CGT. with CHP decals pulling over the Boxster or anything else that didn't get out of the Number 1 lane....

hmmm, strange, appears someone has editted the orginal picture that I posted. I scroll to the original pic and it looks fine, that last pic you posted clearly has a darker tint to the fender.

Im not going to loose any sleep over it, but believe me, that car has no miles on it and is cleaner than when it was new.

Arling is trying to explain it by saying the reflection created off the front panel is going to be different than the door panel due to the different shapes. There is about a 8 inch seperation between the door and the fender becuase there is an opening between the two pieces. Its just the angle. Next time, ask the camera man to take the photo in a vaccum under perfect lighting conditions and it will magically go away.
