Excellent car with plenty of power. Boxster of a very fun car to drive, the top is easy to put up and down. I really do not think that any current automobile can compare to the Boxster. My 911 has more power but is not quite as much fun to drive.Mar 09, 2020

This is probably one of the best roadsters on the market for its price..great handling, pickup is awesome and one of the best braking systems in its class. It is absolutely a lot of fun to drive and a lot of power to go with it. always get the S version. The styling is great too and its definitely a head turner.Jul 29, 2008
