Simply set the desired speed and it will maintain that speed without driver intervention. This can help minimize driver fatigue and improve overall fuel economy. Meet your ultimate co-pilot; cruise control.

    • S Model is the Best Roadster!

      By E27 on Monday, November 26, 2012

      We tested the 911s, Cayman, Z4, and Elise and came away with a Boxster S black on black. The jump in hp with the S is noticable and needed. If we could, we would drop in the 911 S engine. With that engine mounted mid-engine in the Boxster the car would be awesome. As it is, the car handles very well in its design envelope and can be driven comfortably as a daily driver. The 911 is rear biased, but has good power - no. The Cayman is closed up - no. The Z4 is front engined - no. The Elise handles well at the track but is not well sorted with a huge blind spot - no. The Boxster could handle a bigger engine but Porsche will never put as powerful of an engine as any 911 engine into this car. 911 owners would cry foul! Overall the Boxster S has everything we were looking for - a droptop, decent power, very good handling, and a classic design. The Bose stereo is very nice at full volume but you will want to turn it off when you get on the throttle as the boxster engine makes a very nice growl wide open. Mileage is ok at 19 combined. Oh, and get the short shift kit on the 6 speed manual for sweet snappy shifts in the power band. At the track you will definitely want more power, but most times you will be driving on city streets so for that, the S has power a plenty. If you really want and need therapy, this car for what it is, will no doubt make you one very, very happy patient... ;-)…

    • A Practical Porsche...The Perfect Porsche

      By 987>911 on Friday, November 05, 2010

      Pros: Supercar Worthy Handling, Supercar Worthy Brakes, Porsche Flat Six Exhaust Note, Very Solid Gearbox and Clutch, Two Usable Trunks, Good Mileage for the Performance, Porsche Build Quality, Top Down Motoring, Nearly Flawless Ergonomics, A traction control system that when defeated, doesn't ruin the party. It will step in at the last moment however, and keep your ham-fisted self from spinning completely. Cons: No factory I-Pod connection ($500 aftermarket). Even with more sedate driving, tires don't last very long (15,000 miles on Continental Sport Contact 2's). Unless you've owned a Porsche before, feeling like a chump for the first few days of ownership when you automatically try to insert the key into the right side of the steering column (It's to the left of the steering column, on the dash, in classic Porsche racing tradition). The low ground clearance coupled with a longish front overhang, requires slow negotiation at entrances to driveways. Suck it up! It's all totally worth it! General Comments: I wanted the best, daily driver roadster that $40,000 or so could buy and for me, this is it. The two trunks provide enough space for a couple to pack not all that lightly for a week long road trip. 30 mpg on the highway(at legal speeds) is easily attainable. Xenon headlights are far superior to the ones on my BMW X3 (and they were great). The wind deflector that mounts between the front seats is invaluable if you intend to keep your hat above 90 mph. (I can personally attest that this works up to 140, for research's sake of course.) Basically, I recommend buying the newest, lowest mile Boxster you can afford and prepare to smile every time you get behind the wheel.…

    • Excellent Car. Period.

      I have owned my 987 S for 10 months now, this is my 4th Boxster , my 3rd 987. The 987S is great value for the money. They pack a good punch, drive very well and still maintain a high level of comfort and quality. You cannot beat the practicality of this car too. A trunk and a frunk along with the drop top make this car usable in almost every scenario. Reliability and build quality are superb, what you’d expect from a Porsche of this time. Do not let the age of these .1 987s scare you away, a car that has been driven well (the way the designers intended) and taken care of will give you many smiles per gallon. Speaking of gallons, the fuel economy is great, considering the amount of power available. Driving rather spirited, I frequently achieve close to 300 miles per tank at about 19 MPG. Maintenance is not at all expensive, the car is not too difficult to work on as long as you have the right tools and resources. Overall a terrific car for any person!…
