New Porsche Boxster

Porsche has been a brand that has always worked towards perfection, instead of building a new a car they just continued to work on the old eventually building a drivers car. The Porsche Boxster is one of those cars, after the initial success of the first Boxster Porsche has continued to redesign and perfect the driving experience.


The Boxster has never been a good looking car and even after many years of slight face lifts the car still looks like it was only half designed and then folded in half to make the back look exactly the same as the front, so you never know when its driving forward or backwards. Porsche designers have seen this flaw and have decided with all new Porsche ranges to add some spice and in the new Boxster this is done by a nice new back. The body had been widened and a slit spoiler put in with wide style in takes in the side behind the doors all this add to make and actually descent looking car.


The Boxster is still using its legendary mid-mount engine, it is equipped with a 2,7 Liter flat six with direct fuel injection (DFI) and VarioCam plus that pumps out 265 bhp. The Boxster also has a new coaster function, along with PDK (Porsche Doppelkuppling) gear box enables you to save more fuel. The engine is decoupled from the transmission to prevent engine braking and thus deceleration allowing more use of engines momentum and saving fuel.

The performance of the Boxster in around the 164 Mph and a 0-100 Km/h in around 5,5seconds. It has 265 Bhp that reaches at around 6700 rpm and fuel consumption has yet to be assessed but we expect around 7 to 8 liters per hundred kilometer. There will be a manual version available as well and a Boster S, the price for one off these starts from around R589 000 upwards but be warned it is easy to go over board on extras, inflating the price a lot.

The Boxster is a great sports car that has built its name on good build quality and excellent drive even though the look has be some what desirable the car has still been extremely well like and sold very well. Having said that the people who have purchased the vehicle tend to only be middle age mid life crisis men or hair dressers or hot shot young stock brokers on there way to buying the 911. We will have to wait and see whether or not the new one will be the same or its new design will change people mind all I can say is its changed mine.
