1997 the fist year for the boxster in the US. This model has low miles and a great price. It had an automatic transmission which is less desirable than the manual but still this car was a great deal. No doubt one day this year make and model will be a sought after collectible car. Nov 21, 2021

Ive had 2 Boxsters in my life. They look like a sports car but drive like a truck. Not enough HP.Nov 11, 2021

I Love my Baby. Very rare due to the sport package it has. Have not seen any on the road of the year with that package. Was my starter and now I have two more, well not to include the Porsche designed V-rod by Harley Davidson, which I have two of.Jun 29, 2013

Great car, fun to drive, Still in style and looks great. Porsche's power, handling and braking are a great package in the Boxster. An easy car to fall in love with and want to drive everywhere. Long trips are fun with loads of trunk space.Jun 24, 2013

I got this 1997 Boxster base model 2.5L for track fun and future race in the SpecBoxster race series. The acceleration, braking and handling are very good after the weight reduction. The mid-engine layout is excellent forthe high speed fun. Yeah! The Spec Boxster in PCA is called SPBOX, and in SCCA and NASA is called BSR. May 09, 2010

The handling in this ugly looking frog car is superb around bendy sharp corners because of its sharp under steering and it,s very grunty powerful engine that quickly rockets it from standing start in less than 10 seconds which places it amongst other elitie sports cars such as bmw,s Z3Jan 17, 2010

I drove this car as part of a contest about 10 years ago. I am by no means a Porsche fan and would choose a nicely tuned Subaru WRX Sti over this any day of the week, sleet or snow.Feb 04, 2009

A serious car to drive. It is not a fun car. My MG is more fun.Mar 15, 2008

After Supra, i bought this 'che. Everything was amazing in this car, except '80-look interior.
Only modifications were 18" Eta-Beta wheels and -40mm H&R springs. Jan 06, 2008
