Is the Porsche Boxster Spyder a good investment?

The thesis

Stripped-back, manual-only roadster with 3.4L flat-six (320hp), lower and lighter than standard Boxster. Last hydraulic-steered, naturally aspirated Boxster special. Limited production (exact numbers unclear but low volume). Currently £35–50k; sits below Cayman R in recognition but offers comparable purity and the open-air experience. Porsche collectors increasingly prize analogue specials; Spyder name has equity. Fits top of budget, credible appreciation path.
