    Frozen Boxster in Versoix Switzerland

    This photo was part of a powerpoint slide show that got e-mailed to me from a friend. I have seen this type of ice occrance before, but never on cars. I think this is a porsche boxster!?!?

    I would love to know what the driver did next!

    I think the car is an MGF.

    Yeah, i think you are right, the wheels don't look right for a boxster.

    The antenna isn't right for a Boxster either (that icicle pointing straight up on the rear deck).

    The "F" you have in mind refers to the company, not just that car model.

    Unreal photos! Amazing. Of course they're genuine but it's so bizarre it doesn't look normal...

    I don't think so fritz (?) - I think MG is the company name (Actually a brand owned by Rover Group at the time). The F was the first model under that brand name for many years. I think the last stab they had at resurrecting the brand before that was the RV8 - around 1990ish?

    Hmmmm. It doesn't happen too often that I'm accused of being subtle.
