Porsche Boxster
With a 0-60 time of 5.7 seconds, the Boxster S is quite a quick
roadster thanks to the 260bhp on tap from its 3.2 litre engine.
And the 2.7 litre standard car doesn't hang about either, producing
228bhp which in the 5 speed manual version gives a 0-60 time
of 6.6 seconds. Originally launched in 1997 with a 2.5 litre
engine, Porsche enthusiasts demanded more power, and they got
it, but to be honest, every Boxster ever produced is a masterpiece
of engineering.
Both two seater Porsches are so much more than a quick blast
to 60mph. There are people who wonder how the little Porsche's
can cost as much as they do, but we reckon those people have
never driven one. Both the standard car and the S are so much
more than their component parts, adding up to an unbeatable
package. Drive one, and you'll want one - its as simple as that.
So don't even think about taking a test drive for fun; not unless
you're prepared to put your hand in your pocket.
