	Full Test: 1998 Porsche Boxster (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Porsche, however, got it right the first time: the Boxster comes standard with a six-cylinder engine and a five-speed manual transmission, with an optional Tiptronic auto-manual transmission.
		In fact, Boxsters are selling so well that they’ve had to open a plant in Finland just to keep up with a demand that has not tapered off since the car’s introduction.
		Used Boxsters are appreciating in value on the market, sometimes selling for $5,000 more than the cost of a new one.

	PORSCHE BOXSTER S (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Porsche's new Boxster may sit at the bottom of the sportscar makers' pile, but that doesn't mean it lacks any of the marque's historical character or single-minded approach.
		The Boxster is suspended by coil springs, variable rate at the front, a maze of aluminium suspension arms and using variable-ratio rack and pinion steering, it appears Porsche has spent the maximum amount of time getting the suspension right.
		Then there is the fact that Porsche's service and support structure isn't fully operational yet or that fuel of a higher octane is only available at select outlets, or the fact that the canvas top may not be as perfectly watertight a few years from now.

	Porsche Boxster & Boxster S

	Inside Line: Full Test: 2005 Porsche Boxster S - Plenty of Porsche Magic (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		According to Porsche, nearly 55 percent of the newly redesigned 2005 Boxster and Boxster S comes directly from the newly redesigned 2005 Porsche 911 Carrera, including the steering, front structure, seats and electronics.
		The base Boxster rides on standard 17-inch rubber and is powered by a 2.7-liter horizontally opposed six-cylinder rated at 240 hp at 6,400 rpm and 199 pound-feet of torque at 4,700 rpm.
		Of course the key is to the left of the steering wheel, which is a Porsche must, and the window switches have been moved to the door panel, which is proper old school 911 stuff.

	Preview: '03 Porsche Boxster - The Car Connection (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-13)
		Porsche had taken us to the area to try the 2003 Boxster, which will go on sale in August.
		The Boxster was introduced in 1996 and has remained unchanged since, although the more powerful 'S' version was added to the range in 1999.
		An eight-year model run is fairly lengthy these days, even for a firm like Porsche, but it has to be remembered that back in 1996 the Stuttgart firm, now the most profitable carmaker in the world, was struggling back to solvency.

	Porsche Boxster
		Porsche has taken flak on both counts but you have to admire the company's commitment to design and concept in these fickle times.
		Inevitably, though, the Boxster has put on a few pounds so outright performance has barely changed: top speed is now pegged at 166mph with the 0-60mph sprint coming up in 5.5 secs.
		A stiffer bodyshell is a good starting point for the Porsche chassis gurus to work their suspension magic, although the choice of 19-inch wheels might be a questionable one for Brit buyers.

		The new Boxster is in its element being pushed to the limit on a tight circuit.
		Porsche's meanness when it comes to optional extras is legendary and, thus, the standard Boxster comes with seats and a wheel and not much else.
		The Porsche 914 (1969-75) was the original "poor-man's Porsche", developed, like the 924 that superseded it, in partnership with Volkswagen.

		Porsche was sure to follow the trend but it prefered to show up in the market late.
		The Porsche Boxster introduced in the late 1996 has taken the crown of the roadster segment.
		Still some pure Porsche enthusiasts have been complaining that the 2.5lt engine just wasn't powerful enough, so mid-1999 saw the introduction of the 3.2 liter Boxster S which with 252 hp should silence all doubterst.

		Launched on a welcoming public in 1995, the mid-engined two-seater Boxster was the affordable real Porsche that so many had been waiting for.
		Developed by Porsche in response to a show-stealing Audi concept car in the mid-nineties, the Boxster drew heavily on Porsche design heritage.
		The Boxster sold well from its launch, and it remains one of the most popular cars in its category today.

		Of all the Porsche dreams inspired in the years since that fateful October evening in 1955, most of them probably featured a Spyder in the starring role.
		The various fl plastic trim bits were all removed and painted to match the leather, while areas like the center dash and console between the seats were color-matched to the body.
		Porsche executives sent the two packing back to the States and later even attempted imposing a cease-and-desist order to squash the project altogether.

	First Drive: 2005 Porsche Boxster
		Porsche launched the Boxster in 1997, and since then, it's spent much of its time in the shadow of its famous big brother, the 911.
		Bad enough that the Boxster has had to duke it out in the marketplace with the likes of the BMW Z4, Chevy Corvette and Honda S2000, the biggest challenge it faced was not from competition without, but rather from comparisons within.
		Weighing the Boxster against the vaunted 911 is probably inevitable, given its lineage, but this has kept some people from seeing the car in its own light, and that's a shame.

		The Boxster’s variable-ratio steering rack and [optional] 19” wheels responded to the smallest steering input with a fencer’s speed, a surgeon’s precision and a Rottweiler’s tenacity.
		(The Boxster S sprints to sixty in a scarcely credible 5.2 seconds, races from to the ton in 12 and tops out at an entirely respectable 167mph.) But what really separates the Boxster from the 911-- or any other sports car you can name-- is its handling.
		In practice, the difference between the “old” Boxster and the latest iteration is the difference between owning a pair of prescription sunglasses and wearing them.

		The Boxster is available with two types of seat, both with electrical backrest adjustment: either the sporting but comfortable standard seat or the sports seat with even better support at the side.
		The flow of coolant is the same as on Porsche's racing engines, applying the cross-flow principle to keep all cylinders and combustion chambers at the same, consistent level of temperature.
		The Tiptronic S transmission on the Boxster differs from its counterpart in the 911 not only through the number of gears, but also through the configuration and use of the selector lever.

	R&T ROADandTRACK.com -- Road Tests, Comparison Tests: Fun Factor (8/2005)
		Do it in a Boxster S and the whole sequence seems one fluid, interconnected move.
		Mid-engine cars have a well-deserved reputation for being twitchy at the limit, but the Boxster seems to regain rear grip just as quickly as it loses it...and losing it in the first place takes some doing.
		But that rear bite isn't at the expense of excessive understeer either — the front tires seem to cling to asphalt like geckos to a stucco wall, the shock damping and suspension geometry doing their utmost to maintain grip.
