2014 Porsche Boxster S 2dr Convertible (3.4L 6cyl 6M)

After driving a 2003 Boxster for the past seven years, I was ready for a change. Something larger and more practical was in order. Not another two seat roadster - I was moving on. Then, out of curiosity, I test drove the new Porsche Boxster. I was instantly hooked. It is hard to describe just how much better the new version of the Boxster is versus its predecessor. It is better in every way - substantially better. The former was fun and competent. Enoyable. The new Boxster looks, sounds and drives like a supercar. It is incredible. If you really need/want a practical car, avoid this car like the plague - lest you be seduced too.

I purchased a new 2104 Boxster on 10-2-14 at Checkered Flag in Va Bch. I drove both S and base cars, thinking that I would surely want the S: I was wrong. The base car does not have, as the Edmunds "con" headline asserts "mediocre acceleration". It may be somewhat slower than the S version, but it is far more than adequate for normal use. In fact, it is faster than the 2006 Cayman S that I once owned. The one option that I recommend as essential is the PDK transmission, which is a remarkable unit. Those who insist on having a manual six-speed are making a mistake. In the recent past I have had several versions of the Cayman, a Audi TT RS and a Corvette GS. The Boxster is superior to all

I've had my Boxster for about one year and have put 2,500 miles on it. The overall fit and finish, and build quality on the car is extremely high. I have not had any problems with it. It's a blast to drive. As another review stated, it is deceptively fast. I ordered my car with the 6MT and the shifting is the best of any car I've ever driven - the location and feel are just perfect. The handling surprised me - the rear end slides out on fast corners but in a very controlled manner which just contributes to the fun to drive factor. Overall a great driving, very high quality, stunning looking car.
Beautiful, reliable, & so much fun!

I’ve owned a few sports cars previously: BMW M3 - 2003, Porsche Boxster S - 2007, and now my Porsche Boxster Base - 2013. The 981 is hands down the most fun I’ve ever had in any car besides off-roading in my Chevy Colorado ZR-2 (different type of fun). The car is a comfy cruiser below 3k RPMs, but kick down a couple of gears, hit the gas, and hear the H-6 engine put out one of the sweetest sounds you’ve ever heard! The Boxster isn’t the fastest car you can get for the cash, but it handles, responds, and makes you feel like you’re driving a car that is $100k more. Get a Corvette if you want straight line performance. Get the 981 if you want to have fun at any speed, around any curve, and classy feeling that comes with driving a Porsche. It really feels like you’re glued to the road when cornering hard and the PDK transmission has the smoothest, quickest gear changes I’ve ever seen in any car. The car is truly beautiful. The 981 is far more aggressive looking than the previous generations, and looks more like a super-car than even some of the base 911s in my opinion. The interior is beautiful and spacious for a two seater. The front and back trunks provide enough storage for a couples weekend get away, or for grocery runs. It’s honestly a convenient car if you don’t have kids or animals that need to ride along :) I couldn’t be happier that I ended up buying the 981 Boxster. I haven’t had any issues with it and am amazed I still feel myself smiling every time I drive it, even after all this time of ownership. I’ll never get rid of it. Find a CPO approved 981 and just drive the heck out of it. You won’t want to drive anything else on a paved road.

So I decided I wanted a sports car. looked at the BMW z4, Mercedes SLK and the Porsche Boxster. There is no comparison, it's not even close....Box! I test drove the 911 but it didn't have the same balance as the Box. I ordered mine with the red leather interior, Agate Gray exterior and 6 speed manual. I pull down the street heads are turning. The car is quick. get on the highway with some curves it's all giggles. I have never driven a car that was just so much spiritual fun. corners are a blast. be careful you will catch the car in front and you won't need to slow down because it lives for the curves. No problem you have the best brakes on the planet. "there is no substitute"
