Used 2007 Porsche Boxster Convertible Consumer Reviews
Great Car One Problem in 9 years
Very reliable car, A joy to drive. The one problem is, the release buttons for the two trunks are electric. If the battery dies you cannot get into the trunk to get to the battery. There is an emergency trunk cable release behind the drivers front tire but you would need a lug wrench to get the wheel off which is IN THE TRUNK! There is also a place to connect jumper cables in the fuse panel but if the battery is completely dead it will not help.

Awesome Car
This car is amazing. Handling is second to none. It is like this car is on rails. Classic Porsche styling and surprisingly comfortable for such a capable sports car. Love the flat 6 engine note. This car loves to be driven and comes alive above 4,000 RPMs. In a day and age where the driver is electronically insulated from the driving experience, this car offers an immersive driving experience where you are connected to the road. Dollar for dollar is possibly the best value out there.

Porsche for everyone
I bought a 2007 2.7 987 with 106k miles ten months ago for £10k - the base car in my opinion is fabulously smooth to drive, its fast enough but won't scare you and it sounds wonderful. The build quality is such that it doesnt appear 16 years old. I bought from a dealer as I wanted a warranty. The issues I have had include corroded exhaust fittings that led to a horrendous noise but this was easily remedied as a Porsche specialist for £27 in parts although I did end up replacing rear coffin arms and coil packs too. I had a few niggles with the hood not seating correctly but was able to fix myself by replacing a couple of elastic straps that pull the fabric into place. I would strongly recommend to anyone who's ever dreamt of owning a Porsche to take the plunge but have a couple of grand spare to sort out issues that might need fixing to get the car "well sorted" No regrets whatsoever.

Performance, no customer brand immersion
Exhaust note and handling captured me, over leasing another BMW Z4. Just 400 miles on it, but getting 18 mpg around town. Needs Bluetooth and assist like BMW or Northstar.
My Boxster S
Coming from a BMW 330i, a daily driver that I've adored since 2001, I wasn't expecting to enjoy this car as much as I do. I still only have 250 miles on it (picked it up with 6), but it puts a smile on my face every time I start it up. The car draws plenty of attention, and even though it's far from broken in (I'm trying my best to keep the RPM's under 5,000), the car is a real blast to drive. I even enjoy it on my lousy commute up/down the congested Rt. 7 here in N. Virginia, and if you know anything about Rt. 7 during rush hour, that should tell you something about the car!
