1998 Porsche Boxster Boxter review from Australia and New Zealand
"I love it! Very addictive!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing serious, last owner serviced the car religiously.
Speakers aren't working well getting old.
General comments?
Well, what can I say, I am very happy with my Boxter despite its not a boxter s.
My friends laugh at me that they say my car is a poor man's porsche, but after taking them for a ride, they all agree that it was worth the money.
This car produce the best sound I have ever heard in any cars beside for ferrari, but in my opinion I think it sounds as good as ferrari.
The handling is superb giving me the sense of in control and the body of the car feels very rigid, I feel confident when cornering hard in this car.
The engine aren't so powerful, but its got more power than I ever needed, what I like the most is the engine feels very strong, I push this car to 5000 sometimes to 6000 rpm late at night, its still feels very reliable after entuhisatic driving.
I am very impressed with porsche, I must admit I never really like the look as much, but I love the inside the layout, the sound, the solid feel. This car is very addictive, a great car to release stress from my business and a great way to get around.
