Used 2001 Porsche Boxster Consumer Reviews
Maneuvers more deftly than an NFL free safety
So I own the base model Boxster. It is not the fastest car, BUT the handling and maneuverability is so incredible that I think it is better than most super cars. I also test drove 911s when I was looking for my fun car - this was WAY MORE FUN to drive than the 911s give or take 5 years from this, my 2001 model. That's why I bought this. Once, some 911 owner tried mocking me for owning a Boxster, little does he know that his hubris landed him a less fun, more expensive model to drive from Porsche than my own. Hahaha - jokes on you dude!

2001 Boxster S M030 Suspension - Curvy road Fun
ROW M030 Suspension is VERY stiff. Fantastic road holding comes at cost of uncomfortable bump handling.

It only gets better
Driven 45,000 miles in 3 years. Snow, blizzard, sun and rain. Absolutely better each month I've owned it.
Boxster
I bought it used with 18K miles and have put over 20K miles in a year. It has been very reliable, comfortable, has plenty of luggage space and gets 24 mpg. Buying used, I saved about $10K and I get an extra year of warranty and did not have to deal with the teething problems it appears a brand new one has. Overall, it has been a fun wonderfull experience which the dealer has been a big part of.
the best roadster out there
i have owned a 97 and a 99 boxster and for 01- they fixed all my minor complaints!love the new steering wheel, love the key fob access to both trunks. as always the engine and transmission are perfection. just buy one if you're thinking about it - you won't be disappointed!
