Porsche Boxster Review Summary
"Light and eager, the Porsche Boxster steers through the corners like a roller skate, as always. "
"A completely redesigned cockpit with a new center console and 911-style seats is set off by a fully adjustable steering column with a 3-spoke steering wheel. Although the instrument pod retains its familiar three-dial layout, the speedometer, tach and gauge modules, which feature black faces for the normal Boxster and white faces for the S, are set farther apart for better viewing."
What reviewers liked least about the Porsche Boxster:
"With the top in place, the Boxster seems to run into a barrier of wind resistance at 151 mph (8 mph shy of Porsche's claimed top speed)."
"At $53,100, the 2005 Boxster S costs (and weighs) a bit more than its predecessor. But that's because it has more standard equipment, which makes it a better deal than the old S."
Porsche Boxster Comparisons:
Best one-liners about the Porsche Boxster:
"The second-generation Boxster has slightly more muscular proportions; it now looks like a genuine statement of style, not just a bite-size fashionista."
"Value aside, however, I like the new Boxster because it finally looks and drives the way I would expect it to."
