Oops. It seems that Porsche doesn't know how to spell the name of its entry-level roadster.

The photo above is 100% real and shows a billboard in London advertising the latest incarnation of Porsche's frankly brilliant Boxter. Sorry, Boxster.

For all these years, we've been under the impression that the Germans are sticklers for accuracy and precision, so it comes as something of a relief to discover that they're just a sloppy and half-arsed as the rest of the world.
