Porsche manufactures incredibly nice cars, that being said getting one that way and keeping that way is the challenge. My boxster drives great, looks great and the performance is approximate to what they say; but from the beginning it was 🙂↔️ so. It's a really unusual 📦 and I like it that way, now. - 5.0
Fabulous car
by Walt on 4/24/2025 4:29:15 AM
Super fast, super agile, awesome brakes, very well-built. And fuel efficient when not pounding on the turbo. I just completed a 700 mile 1-day trip averaging 74mph. 33.2mpg. Was in cruise control, nice day, light traffic. Rarely got on the turbo. But on other days, you use your turbo a lot and are in the low to mid 20s. 2017 718 Boxster S. - 5.0
A More Fun Car (compared to my 911)

When I saw this absolutely gorgeous, graphite blue metallic (light gray blue) 2017, 718 Boxster with light tan interior and low miles 9 months ago, I couldn't resist. It is coincidentally the same year as the black, 2017 base model, 911 I'd owned earlier. It is less luxurious, a tiny bit slower (but not much), has a comparable ride, corners sharper, and the retractable top makes it way more fun to drive. The 911 is more macho, but I get at least as many compliments on this 718 Boxster. My golf clubs even fit in the trunk! I wanted the amazing smell of full leather, but it probably would have required buying the "S" variant which you don't really need. 0-60 in 4 seconds in the base model is quite fast; all of them now are turbo-charged. Hope this was helpful to you. Btw, avoid black: it will show every, tiny rock chip.
