2008 Porsche Boxster Base

The 2008 Boxster is Porsche's entry-level roadster, a mid-engine convertible that puts the driver right at the center of the action. With its low center of gravity and balanced chassis, this Boxster feels eager and precise through corners, making every drive feel special. The ride is firm but controlled, a trade-off for the flat, planted feel that makes it so rewarding on twisty roads. Inside, the cabin is snug but well laid out, with quality materials and a straightforward dashboard that focuses on the essentials. The Base Boxster gives you the same mid-engine chassis as the RS 60 Spyder, with a smaller engine and fewer standard luxury touches to lower the entry price. Its 2.7L I6 makes 245 horsepower and pairs with a five-speed automatic, good for 23 mpg combined and a relaxed feel on the highway.
