1997 Porsche Boxster review from North America
"Outstanding bargain!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Convertible top stopped working at 10,000 miles, fixed under warranty.
Leaves clogged the intake at 14,000 miles.
Don't bother getting the hardtop, it is hard to remove and replace, and it rattles.
General comments?
Awesome car, easy to live with, lots of room in front and rear trunks.
Very comfortable for tall drivers.
The best handling car you can buy!
Get the sport package.
