not only snob appeal - 1997 Porsche Boxster
By sam kalter - September 27 - 10:30 pmBought certified used when prices were still firm (high). Not the case w/2-seaters today; makes this car ,or better an "S",great value for the money. This car is a pleasure to live with...notwithstanding the high costs when something does go wrong...it just makes me feel good to get in it...I still stare back at it after almost (5) years but thats how it is with Porsches-and yes, this a real Porsche .p.s.Even w/T.C.,useless in snow p.p.s.go for the full leather interior,a major difference on early models.

I love my Boxster - 1997 Porsche Boxster
By Chef John - March 11 - 1:36 pmIt is a 1997, I have yet to meet anyone who thinks it is more than three years old. I used to drive a Mazda Miata. The Boxster turns heads on every drive. People think that I am rich or something. Get one that has been loved. Have it checked by an independant mechanic. Look for oil leaks. Mine is dry as a bone. Be aware that the Boxster is a "gateway" Porsche. You will move on to the next level.

Love the Boxster - 1997 Porsche Boxster
By blueboxsterlover - September 11 - 10:00 amGreat car! Very fun to drive and handles beautifully. Its hard to drive my SUV after driving the Boxster--I have to slow down for the corners in the SUV. Easy to drive and maintain. Its a very classic car also--the body style has remained basically the same and its beauty is timeless. Lots of admiring looks when I drive this car around town.

Love This Car - 1997 Porsche Boxster
By Pete - May 23 - 5:06 pmI have read horrors about the Porsche Boxster after I purchased mine, but it seems the problem are mostly on newer models manufactured in Finland (check driver side sticker). Mine is a 1997 Porsche Boxster with 101,120 miles, made in Germany and it is running GREAT! The only problem I am having is that the clock stopped working (digital clock) and I cant find which fuse (if it is the fuse) is out. Other than that, this is a great car.

Fun to Drive - 1997 Porsche Boxster
By Bill77 - July 19 - 10:00 amThere is nothing better for a car lover than red, lots of power, no top and no back seat. I cant help but smile when driving this car. This was worth every cent.

Great Car thats Fun to Drive - 1997 Porsche Boxster
By GMc - May 6 - 6:33 amI have totally enjoyed the car for six months now. Other than the classic ignition switch falling apart (which took 15 minutes to get fixed), this car has been a pleasure to own. Buy one if you can find a very clean low miles car.

7 year old Boxster - 1997 Porsche Boxster
By 60 yr old gear-head - January 3 - 4:30 pmwaited 11 months after placing pre- production order for 1st year Boxter. I drove it to work everyday for 4 years and just as a fun 2nd car for the last 3 years: hence, the very low milage. very reliable, had a freaky problem with the folding top after warranty expired. Bill was $2,000. Porsche Corp. was actually embarrased and paid it in full! Impressive!
