wonderful car, its beautiful. only problem is I am 6’ 2 lol. I understand its not supposed to be the most practical car but I can see areas where they couldve made it more practical like the fact that it did not have a glovebox? Jul 16, 2023

The vehicle was not valued at what it should be, the convertible top needs to be replaced that’s $5,000 for a new one. This vehicle has a lot of cosmetic work that needs to be done to it.Aug 16, 2022

Great car, enjoy taking it out on the road. Drives smooth, comfortable and real light on gas. Interior very relaxing, excellent all round appeal. Holds the road well and a pleasure to drive on long or short drives, turns heads wherever it goes for sure.Apr 25, 2015

i can throw this Boxster into a corner and comfortably slide through it at 40 mph. the mid-engine makes it easy and i fell comfortable doing so. I'm 6'3" and i fit, better with the top down; which is the best and only way to drive it (unless it is raining).Aug 27, 2014

love the motor and handle. a great way to get started with the world's best sports car...until you can afford a 911. easier to slide into corners with the mid-engine. everyone looks. hard but it's possible for a 6 foot guy to get inAug 27, 2014

Best first Porsche. Suitable for everybody from beginner to expert drivers. The chassis is stiff for a convertible. Inexpensive to operate both on fuel and maintenance and repairs.
Styling is excellent compliment to efficient design. Plenty of storage because of the 2 trunks.Jan 23, 2014

fell in lve right away..allright this is one of the best headturning vehicles , the engine is strong and most parts are made by audi , one of the greatest german carmakers , although porsche salesmen don't tell you. overall this is a exotic car for a domestic price !Oct 24, 2013

Could not ask for a nicer weekend car! When kept in great shape it is a real looker! Of all the color combos this one and maybe one other always looks great and never fails to turn heads!
It's a great car for a babe and/or a great chick magnet! Mar 12, 2012

Just a great car to drive. It handles like a dream and just around 5,000 rpm it
sounds amazing. You shouldn't worry too much about the cost because the fun you
get out of it makes it all worth it.Nov 04, 2011

Handles the road very well, has all the bells and whistles, and very fast. Just getting old and don't need the speed. Easy to install the hard top. Takes 2 to place the top on. Come out and see it and take it for a rideAug 23, 2011

It is a truely fun car. I can use it open top and close top. In California everyone should own a convertible. I bought this car to turn in for the Spec Boxster race. And I decided to keep this as a street since the condition of the car is really nice. I used it for commuting to work, autocrossing with Porsche club, and doing Driver Ed (DE) at the big track. It is an excellent multi-function fun car. Since I bought another Boxster for track, this car is back to the street trim. And enjoying it for the tours on the California back country road with fellow Porsche owners in the weekends.May 09, 2010

This is Porsche's version of a Miata. Solid,responsive,fun to drive, makes you look forward to driving to work. Easily used as a daily driver with a remarkable amount of storage space between the front and rear trunks --which will easily accommodate golf clubs. This car is not driven for its speed (which is actually quite good)but for it's handling ability. Handles well in the rain but you live for those sunny top down days. Gas mileage is good and maintenance costs are less than the other Porsches. All Porsches seem to have their various vintage and model related idiosyncracies but none detract from the pleasure and quality of the Boxster. Of the four Porsches I have owned, the Boxster is THE BEST PORSCHE of all because it remains a wind-in-your-hair SPORTS CAR. Feb 27, 2010

The car was kitted out with side skirts, spoiler, and front bumper. Even with the lowest displacement 2.5L 201HP engine it was pretty quick, but the car excelled in handling. I would ramp it at ridiculous speeds and because it was so short, cut through traffic with ease. The sound of the exhaust was beautifully harmonious; heaven to my ears flying up the gears especially with the top down. Cost of ownership was high: an oil change was $300 and brakes front and back were $890 and $880. However, I sold it for $1500 less than I bought it for 3 years and 20,000 kms later, so it was well worth it!! May 18, 2009

Wish I had never Wrecked it. Greatest vehicle I have
ever owned. Never had a major problem. The only
downside is that it should not be used as a daily
driver, but a weekend/fun car only. Also not that
comfortable on long trips, but then again it is a
porsche, I'd still buy another one.Oct 02, 2008

Engine died with 3000 miles on it. Just stopped dead on the highway pulling out of a toll booth. Another time it died with the motor fine, but unable to move - broken CV joint or something. Last time on a flat bed was a shift cable falling off so I couldn't get the car in gear.Jun 20, 2008

Hated selling mine, but it was time. Great handling car, incredibly fun to drive, better-than-anticipated trunk space (front and back!), people notice you.
Mileage nothing special (about 24 mpg highway), tires need to be replaced every four years or so.
