Overview & Reviews

The Boxster is slowly adding features and options. This year, a Classic Package includes metallic paint and all-leather seats, and adds special highlights to the interior. The gas tank is increased from a 12.5- to a 14.1-gallon capacity, and gas-discharge Litronic headlights are optional. All the features in the Sport Package are individually optional this year, and 18-inch wheels are now available.

• Weak stereo, and the BMW M Roadster offers more power.

  Best True Sports Car For the Money - 1999 Porsche Boxster
  By MSN - October 5 - 5:56 pm

  Porsche did miss the mark by not making the Boxster its new flagship! Ive driven the 911s, the Z3s, corvettes, along with the rest, and bottom line is, if Porsche would have placed an adequate engine under the hood, the boxster would be untouchable from a sports car stand point.

  Uber Shweet - 1999 Porsche Boxster
  By Raiffe - September 20 - 10:03 pm

  The car is great! I drive from my home to class mon-fri and not a day goes by when people dont stare! It easily cruses at 100mph and has great highway acceleration in 5th gear. I found that the exhaust wasnt loud enough so I installed one myself and it sounds like a beast. Gas consumption is also amazing for a sports car, I get 26.8 avg. but who really cares! Get it!!!

  What a super car. I always wanted an old speedster and boy am I glad I did not find one, and selected this car instead. This is all of the fun of a speedster but with all of the modern conviences

  The Spirit lives - 1999 Porsche Boxster
  By Charles - November 14 - 10:26 am

  The Boxster captures the true essence of a sports car. I have had had several sports cars, triumph TR-3s, TR-4, MGA coupe, an Austin Healy 100-6 and four Alfa Romeos. Their spirit lives in the Boxster, top down, skimming the ground and cornering - I live for the on and off ramps. I feel like I am one with the car.

  A fun, fun, fun experience! Get one! - 1999 Porsche Boxster
  By Love_the_Box! - November 12 - 2:00 am

  What an amazing auto! Even more fun to drive than it appears! Plenty of HP and zip, when necessary, and handling that makes you hope you never have to drive another car! And I thought golf made me itch for the spring/summer months!!

  If you want a smooth and quiet ride... - 1999 Porsche Boxster
  By AndyInAtlanta - July 5 - 4:53 pm

  Dont buy a boxster if you are looking for a comfortable, smooth luxury ride. I didnt realize getting performance (so to speak) meant having my teeth jarred loose over every pothole. I understand a sports car needs to feel the road, but do I have to have my face rubbed in it? I guess I have a Princess and the Pea attitude, cuz I hate feeling every little bump in the road. I love the car, the power is ok, the styling is amazing, but they need some kind of upgrade or option for smooth ride. For any sports enthusiast that says thats just the way sports cars drive - not exactly true. Corvettes feel SO much more comfortable. But the boxster was a better value for the $s.

  Thats my car! - 1999 Porsche Boxster
  By LVTODRV - September 16 - 2:00 am

  Every time I get in my car to go anywhere I say to myself I love my car! It just fits my style and need for speed. Best driven on the open road with the convertible top down. It doesnt get any better than that. Great stress reducer! Great for the tan! I driver it year round, but desperately need snow tires. The car wash people love when I come through for detailing. Will upgrade the engine before I trade this car in!

  I Love my Porsche Boxster. She purrs perfectly, has sleek curves and drives the way a high performance vehicle should. She has more than enough storage space, front and back and looks sexy!

  almost flawless - 1999 Porsche Boxster
  By Dr. Lloyd - August 17 - 10:00 am

  Every time I get an itch to upgrade to a 911, I just go out a take a spin in my Boxster. This car has the handling, the brakes, the top down fun, and plenty of storage space (two trunks!) The steering is super responsive. At 3500 rpm, the engine sings. Every time I get in this car, it makes me smile. Whenever Im done driving I have what boxster owners call permagrin, I cant wipe the smile from my face. This car is best in the twisty mountain roads, where almost nothing can beat it. From the doors forward, the Boxster is almost the same as the 911. The only problem is that the 911 has the larger engine, and who needs rear seats?
