2004 Porsche Boxster Base

2004 Porsche Boxster in Arctic Silver over Black Leather. We fell in love when we first drove it and that love has not diminished over time in spite of other roadsters now vying for our affection. The basic attraction is the Boxster’s embodiment of the Porsche 356 Speedster and 550 Spyder. Steering response, clutch take-up, shift tension between gears, all are familiar in a fashion that can only be labeled Porsche. Yet the Boxster has that mid-engine, pivot-at-its-center feel, with none of the tail-heavy temperament that was the hallmark of the rear-engine 911 for so long. The standard Boxster offers plenty of performance, and its engine was revised last year (2003) for quicker acceleration. More important, it sounds much better. Dipping into the throttle at higher revs rewards the driver with a deep, muscular whoosh of air rushing through the intakes that’s satisfying, intoxicating. Yet the Boxster engine is quite tractable, great for putting around residential areas or busy parking lots at low rpm. It handles superbly yet rides very nicely, a wonderful balance. From a practical standpoint, the Boxster is eminently livable. The top can be raised or lowered at a moment’s notice, making top-down motoring an easy decision. It rides smoothly and feels tight and rigid.
