Faults:

Have had to replace the rear main seal, which was still under warranty from the previous owner.

General Comments:

The car delivers more than I expected. Acceleration is quick and handling is amazing. It never fails to put a smile on my face each time I hop in, turn the ignition, and put the top down! It still turns heads.

Faults:

Nothing.

The 2002 Porsche Boxster S, as I would assume all Porsche Boxster models, wants to have fun. Upon purchasing this car I realized just how much enjoyable a drive to work could be. Its like being a teenager again. I don't think there could be a mass produced car that is more fun to drive for the price.

Acceleration is great, handling is amazing, trannsmission is smooth and tight. The mid-engine completely out performance other rear or front wheel drive cars when it comes to handling. It may not be the fastest car out there, but put the top down, head into the mountains and you will experience what a roadster was meant to be.

Porsche is about performance and driving... this car lives up to its name.

Faults:

Nothing.

This vehicle is everything a Porsche should be.

Acceleration smooth and constant - no 'weak' spots in the engine's range.

I've only put about 350 miles on the car but have ad the top down and this vehicle attracts attention! Alot of people stare as I go buy and the kids on my son's school bus all gave me the thumbs up when it dropped him off.

Acceleration is flawless - there is no weak spots in the engines range and I've consistently done 0-60 in less than 7 seconds [no stop watch so no exactly numbers but this is without really trying to get the numbers better.]

This was a base Boxster S - called a 'port car' by my dealer. [spent a lot of time sitting unsold at CHS] Was a 2002 - not sold til Jan 2003 - NO options - a base level car with 17" 2004 wheels and Michelin tires. Exactly what I was looking for - I don't need traction control or big computers displaying oil level and my McDonalds order, nor did I need auto headlights or heated seats or anything fancy - the car handles and accelerates the same as car with $40000 in options and certainly looks the same - yet I paid $28k for a Boxster with 2 YEARS left on the warranty and only 12975 miles at delivery. A BARGAIN and a Porsche, all at the same time!
