Miles Overview
The 1998 Boxster is Porsche's entry-level roadster, the one that brought the brand's sports-car feel to a more attainable price. It's a true driver's car, with a mid-engine balance that makes it feel eager and precise through every corner. The cabin is snug but well laid out, and the convertible top drops quickly for open-air driving. Owners note that valve cover gaskets can leak as the car ages, so it's worth a look underneath before you buy. The Base is the entry point for the Boxster range, giving you the mid-engine roadster experience without the S model's extra power. Its 2.5L I6 makes 201 horsepower and 181 lb-ft of torque, and with the five-speed automatic you get relaxed cruising rather than a hard-edged sports-car feel. Fuel economy is 20 mpg combined, and the trade-off for the automatic is that the engine's character is a bit muted compared to the manual.
