After only two days, I'm loving this car. I upgraded from a 2017 Boxster S, and while the S was a great car, this improves upon it. The six cylinder produces noticeably less cabin noise than the Turbo four. Suspension is tight and responsive. Suspension feels perfect. Only gripe: The entertainment interface which was clunky five years ago remains unimproved. Love the car though.

My 2020 Porsche Boxter S is the best Porsche model I have owned. It is my daily driver. Over the years I have had a 924, 944, 968 and 911. The Boxter is the best of all of them. The performance is fantastic and I have had many people comment on how great it looks!

I recently bought a certified low-mileage Boxster S. I strongly recommend getting a CPO car, since the depreciation has already occurred. The original MSRP for my car was $89,800, and I got it (with 10,000 miles) for $66,000. That, I think, is a very desirable saving. When shopping for a CPO car, be sure to check the in-service date, since the length of the warranty will be based on that. As far as options go, they can be very costly, as is well known. My car included a very nice all leather interior which cost a lot more than I would have paid on a new car. I recommend PASM, not necessarily for the better ride, but because it gives the car a more solid feeling. I have had cars both ways, and having PASM is better. My car has a six-speed transmission. After driving PDK cars for a while, I decided to go with a manual. I also encourage that, unless a manual transmission makes you uneasy. A six-speed is lighter and less expensive than a PDK, and adding lightness is important. If you do get a PDK, get the Sports Chrono option, which will give you launch control. As for the engine, I like the larger S engine. The car that I traded was a base car, which was fine, but the extra power is nice to have, By the way, you can’t tell an S for certain by twin tailpipes - my base car had them. I considered a GTS, but I don’t think that that version offers any real advantage over the S.

The performance of the turbo four is excellent, but the 4.0 NA engine is a different beast. The Boxster simply drives and does exactly what you ask of it, and feels wonderful doing so. Add in the flat 6 (even with the GPF pipes that Europe gets) and it sounds and drives amazing. The engine note is a little muted versus the 981 (2012 - 2016) Boxster, but has actually grown on me over that engine's note when on the boil, not to mention the added punch through the whole rev range. Put it in Sport Plus with the PDK, and the engine sings along from 3500 to redline the whole time, and feels natural and comfortable doing so. It is not an inexpensive Porsche, and honestly, after a couple of air cooled 911s, I never thought I'd have a Boxster, but the 718 is borderline exotic, and to me feels more like the old air cooled 911s than the current 911 (which to me feels more of a GT, especially at +/- 500 lbs more than the Boxster) All in all, a win in my book, and I count myself lucky that I could put one of these somewhat rare beasts in my garage

4th Boxster, better than ever!

Our Carrera White PDK 718 Boxster S is our 4th Boxster and without a doubt the best overall Boxster yet. The biggest difference in the new series is the motor. The sound is less compelling at lower RPM’s but the power is intoxicating throughout the rev range. The 981/982 series has always felt more refined vs the 987 series and with that a bit less connected at times. Perhaps it’s lightening of parts that’s lost a certain heft to things like the doors closing or the switch to electric steering. There’s a smoothed out refined demeanor that translates to a smoothness in effort on the road along with a maturity about the cars. The new 718 has taken that to the next level of refined sofistication and driving excellence. It’s next to impossible not to be smooth and enjoy this car when driving a backroad. The interior and exterior are subjectively the best looking yet. All in all we are very pleased with this next genation and it really rounds out what one expects or needs in a sports car.
