Folks who claim this car is a chore around town are just wrong. This car is no more difficult to drive around town than ANY other small car with a manual transmission. And the fun factor on this one wins out every time. There are faster cars out there, but overall the Boxster's performance at this price is a huge plus, not to mention that you don't see Porsches on every corner like other cars in the same price range.
Guaranteed Fun! Does Not Disappoint!

Purchased a 2006 base Porsche Boxster with Tiptronic a couple of weeks ago. The driving experience is great! The engine is pleasantly loud. I've found it quietest at about 65 mph, louder at low speeds in the 10-30mph range and fairly loud at 75 mph+. If you're looking for a sports convertible in the $50,000 - $60,000 range, look no further. The storage room is great with the front and rear trunks. I can get 2 sets of golf clubs in the rear (even with top down) and a nice sized medium piece of luggage in the front. That's better than the BMW 3-Series or Audi A4 convertible, which, with top down would require using the whole back seat for storage as well. I put the top down at 55-60 degrees with the heat on, no problem!

I used to own the '04 Boxster...now fast forward to November '06 and I just leased the new model. It surpasses a car I didn't think could be surpassed! It has exceptional handling, total control, and an exquisite ride (for 18" wheels). This car does it all and leaves the competition in the dust! The "S" model delivers the high power some of you may require...but the regular Boxster is a driver's "dream come true!" The Japanese manufacturers wish they could make a car drive like this one! The American's don't even bother to try. What a roadster. What an intimate experience between the driver and the road...it's unbeatable!
Fun on the run!

What a fun car to drive. Shifting the manual transmission is easy and fast with tight, short. precise movements. This car will get up to really fast, really fast. The driving position can be highly controlled with the seat adjustments and tilting and telescoping steering wheel. When done right, it feels like I'm wearing the car. This is not an economy car. It requires premium gasoline and maintenance is expensive. The driving pleasure is well worth it though. Putting the top down and hearing the sound of that distinctive Porsche motor makes the world a better place. Someone asked if I was going through my second childhood. I said I never left my first. My whole life I've owned several convertibles and sports cars. This is the best yet!

My Boxster is a blast to drive. I can't wait to go on a long road trip! It takes a little while to get the engine noise off your mind, but the pipes on the exhaust let you forget about it once you get on the pedal.
