Porsche Boxster 2.7 2d (2004/04) Owner Review
Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
-
Economy
Value
Compared to a 911 or even a Cayman, this is a steal.
Costs
Cost nothing in nearly two years, other than consumables. Not yet had it's first (two year anniversary) service.

On the road
Driving
Brings a smile to my face every time I turn the key and listen to all that precision machinery whine in the background.
Performance
Great. Just great. Who needs more power? Not on the public roads you don't. Reckon the chassis would handle a load more for track day work. But in the real world this is fast enough! Road holding and handling on a par with my previous car, a Lotus Elise.

Living with it
Reliability
Perfect so far!
Image
Watch out for jealous people, so park carefully! Don't expect traffic to let you out at junctions because of badge inverse snobbery!
Comfort
It's a sports car so ride is hard but not unduly so. Found it very comfortable, two up, touring around Switzerland for two weeks.

Security and Service
Security
Cloth top excepted, seems pretty good. Even the interior storage box is alarmed.
Service
Exceptionally well cared for. You are made to feel as special as the product.
