  quality not there - 2002 Porsche Boxster
  By knuckles - May 22 - 10:00 am

  too many problems--rear seals seem to have problem on their bulletin boards, clutch is weak, hydraulic front hood that needs to be jumped to open if the battery is dead is a poor design feature

  Boxster S Fun, but not best for $60k - 2002 Porsche Boxster
  By Tim Gaither - May 30 - 2:00 am

  Bought Boxster S preowned w/9k miles. Great looks and top easy to drop. Tiptronic acceleration not to good - 0- 60 at 5.9 secs. Handling is cars strength. Interior is very plain even with sport touring package. Cabin is a little tight for me at 6" 3". Still fun to drive. Wish engine compartment was easier to access.

  Proud Owner - 2002 Porsche Boxster
  By Val Taylor - March 31 - 12:50 pm

  This car is the funnest car that I have ever driven. So balanced that it reminds me of the racing carts I had when I was in my teens. The only problem I have had with it is the ignition switch had to be replaced (factory recall or something). Car is reliable, high performance, and certainly lives up to the Porsche reputation. Have driven some friends 911s and the Boxster definitely handles better.

  So much fun... - 2002 Porsche Boxster
  By nola mike - March 16 - 6:43 pm

  Bought the car with 40k miles. Had been looking at a few other cars, Honda S2000 was close, and on paper seems better for the $$ (xenon, glass rear, reliability, great shifter), but I couldnt get myself to like it more. I was a little worried because this model didnt have PSM (stability control), but the handling is so good, and so neutral, that I havent had a problem. You can kick the rear out with ease, but its very easy to control. People have lots of complaints about the interior, but Im not sure why.

  nice boxster s - 2002 Porsche Boxster
  By yelloboxsters - May 17 - 5:56 am

  Only thing I could complain about the car is the very high profit margin to resell value. Mine retailed for almost 60,000 and I am needing to get a coupe (need backseat) and it only has 7,770 miles on it and the best I can get for it is 45,000. that to me is pretty poor. If you are considering buying one please buy a used one from a individual. Save yourself about 15,000 dollars and pick up a nice pre owned one. This is a review for a 2001 boxster s that was purchased new in may of 2001.
