Absolutely fantastic sports car .

When Tyson worked at Hergeshiemer Motorsport we set it up for weekend fun duties .
Spec racing set-up minus the big-poundage Springs ..
Was still too much for daily use ..

Be carefull you don’t ruin it .
They’re good stock , and GREAT fun .

I’m still using it now , sold the bilstein pss and tarett stuff and now all stock with 18” wheels .

Evey review, on TV or magazines I have ever read about the Boxster has only good things to say about it. The only complaint is lack of power in the earlier models, and that is from guys used to 911s or high powered cars.

I am often tempted to buy an old Boxster because they are so cheap. My 3 car garage is full, and it would have to sit outside, and I would just hate that. So that is my excuse to not get one.
