This Year's Model Updates:

For 2004, the Boxster S adds a sports exhaust system to the options list. The Boxster and Boxster S are also available in two new colors -- Atlas Gray and Carmon Red.

Pros:
  • Supreme handling characteristics, plenty of usable power in "S" format, relatively generous cargo capacity, fast power top operation.
Cons:
  • Costly options push price up quickly, interior not all that impressive considering the price.

  • Stunning looks, immensely fun, practical - 2004 Porsche Boxster
    By -

    The handling is extraordinary. The ride is firm but surprisingly supple with standard suspension and 17 inch wheel upgrades. The engines voice is perfect: refined aggression without ostentation. Buffeting is mild with the top down. The cockpit is a bit noisy with the top up. The 2003 model has the cup holders, glove compartment and glass rear window (sweet!). The seats are well sculptured but could use a bit more lumbar support. The base radio is abysmal. You definitely want to upgrade this. Or, just leave the radio off, put the top down, find a beautiful winding road less traveled and have a blast.

  • This car cant miss.... - 2004 Porsche Boxster

    If its the best sports car convertible for the money you are looking for...the Boxster is the car to get. It out handles most every other automobile on the road...including some exotics! While the "S" model is the one to own if extra horsepower is what you want...the standard Boxster has plenty of power to dust off most wanna be sports cars....like their marketing campaign says...Porsche..there is no substitute!

  • Best sports car for a value - 2004 Porsche Boxster

    Possitive: Great handling(better than 911), comfortable ride(17inch wheels),lovely sweet engine sound, well built body. Getting better every year. Negative: 5 speed manual, expensive oputions. Truely best buy pure sports car. No other cars come close around this price range.Why buy 911.

  • 2004 BOXSTER S...YOU CAN BY LOVE. - 2004 Porsche Boxster
    By -

    BUILD QUILITY IS LIKE NOTHING IVE EVER OWNED BEFORE. ITS TOLERANCES WITH PANEL GAP CAN ONLY BE LIKENED TO A SWISS WATCH. THE TORQUES NOT THERE COMPARED TO A V-8, BUT WHAT HOWL THE EXHAUST MAKES AS THE REVS CLIMB TOWARDS RED LINE ARE A EXCEPTED TRADE OFF. GOOD ERGONOMICS..EVERY THINGS JUST IN REACH. NO XM RADIO IS OFFERED IS MY ONLY COMPLAINT. ALSO PRICE OF OPTIONS IS EXTREAMLY STEEP AND MORE SHOULD BE STANDERD AT THIS PRICE RANGE.

  • A true sports car - 2004 Porsche Boxster
    By -

    This is my first Porsche, and it will not be the last. The dealership delivered my car on a hot September day around noon. The seal gray exterior, black cabriolet top, and 18 inch Carrera wheels looked phenominal. Every time that I look at this car I consider myself fortunate to have been given the opportunity to experience such a wonderful motorcar. Porsche has been able to capture the essence of a sports car with a somewhat primitive interior, drop dead gorgeous looks, and unbeatable performance.

  • Great Sports Car - 2004 Porsche Boxster

    This is the finest sports car I have ever owned. Its not the fastest car I own but its the best handling one. I have always looked at Porsche as the leader in fine sports cars and am certainly glad to own one. I presently own five other convertables but consider this the best sports car.

    My Boxster handles great and drives better on the highway than my wifes CLK 320 convertible. 3rd gear moves the car very quickly. Few cars can keep up with this car around corners or open road. Test drove the SL 500, 911, & Corvette before buying this car. Overall, this car is better than any of the other three. It has the power, handling and it is a blast to drive.
