Read the following independent drivers review:Boxsters are entry-level Porsche sports cars, if entry level is an appropriate term for any automobile in this marque. They’ve been around since the 1990s and received a significant upgrade in the mid-200s in response to intensifying competition in the segment. There were minor tweaks to the external appearance, numerous other small changes, and, above all, a significant, and needed, upgrade to the interior. The result was a superb automobile that evolved smoothly from the original versions and sold extremely well. Boxsters of all vintages are commonplace on California roads, and with good reason. Lower the roof directly you get in the car, for this is an automobile that is, above all, a convertible, and one of the safest on the road. The seats are cozy and supportive, also surprisingly comfortable on longer journeys. For obvious reasons, Boxsters have relatively stiff suspension, but you certainly don’t feel uncomfortable at slower speeds or on rougher road surfaces. You cruise along in traffic using second to fourth, the engine a gentle thrum in the background as you shift effortlessly from gear to gear with minimal throws involved. A tap on the accelerator and the car comes to life very nicely, but it is only when you put your foot to the floor that you appreciate the vociferous power that is to hand. Head for a freeway ramp or a convenient, uncongested straight and push the car hard in second. The quietly vociferous growl turns to a visceral roar as you hit the higher revs. Zero to sixty well under six seconds would be my guess. On the freeway, you cruise along at 65 to 70, with a restrained murmur accompanying you. This is not a particularly quiet convertible for civilized conversations, but that’s not the point. This is first and foremost a sports car. Head to the twisties, put it into second, and you realize at once that this is a car to be driven hard. The suspension keeps the Boxster flat and controlled, the steering is a wonder of precision, and the acceleration open ended. I pushed through the hairpins at speed, carving aggressive lines with wonderful surges of acceleration at just the right moments. Left, then right, left, then right: I rocketed along through the S curves with delicious abandon. Few drivers will take the Boxster to extremes, but for regular, hard driving there are few rivals. Add superlative brakes and wonderful poise and you have an automobile that had me saying “yum” time and time again. Heading back home, I zoomed along a nicely curving highway playing lovely tunes with the gearbox for miles. I could have driven for hours. If you have an ambition to own a Porsche, the Boxster is undoubtedly the best place to start. It is easy to drive and utterly controlled for average drivers like me. Yet one knows that it will handle extremes with aplomb. This is a lovely weekend car or daily driver, a machine for rollicking drives that are simply fun, and a convertible that appeals to drivers young and old. As far as the 2005 Boxsters are concerned, there’s no point in going for the more powerful S version unless you have ambitions to race. This is fast enough for almost all of us. A used mid-2000s Boxster in good condition and with relatively low mileage is a thoroughly sensible buy—and you may keep it longer than you anticipated. It��s that good. This is a very nice example, with 19,000 miles on the odometer that has been thoroughly checked out and is in near-spotless condition. There are no rattles or creaks; the acceleration is clean and flawless. In short, if your yen is for the Porsche experience at an affordable price, this is a very good place to start. Strongly recommended.
