I have never seen a white Boxer before. Very interesting. However, personally speaking, white does not bring out the sensual lines and forms of a Boxer. So it's a RH Boxer. Jimmy

I am not a white Boxer fan. To stark. Is this the one that was for sale via Mike Wheeler-Rardley Motors ? I have also seen one at a Ferrari event in Portugal. It was an Italian registered 512 BB and was still in the possession of the original owner.

well, that car is so amazing that even without any paint it look great

but I still prefer it in red =)

Haven't seen a Boxer I don't love
but white would not be my first color
and I don't think I would check the white piping trim on the option list.

One observation on having seen 2 white Boxers, one of which was parked next to my former red/black 512 BB, white makes the Boxer look a lot smaller.

I'm guesing that wouldn't make it any easier to manouvre!
Not my 1st colour choice either, but the history was great...

The one thing I do like about the white Boxer is that it makes the NACA duct more noticable. When you have the black it just disappears.

I kinda like the look when the duct is the upper body color.
