About the Porsche Boxster:

The Porsche boxster (986), whose name refers to the 'boxer' engine and the 'roadster' class, was introduced in 1996, succeeding the Porsche 968. The Boxster is a two door, two seat convertible roadster, while all of the prior Porsche convertibles were built as hardtop coupes. The first Boxsters were powered by 2.5 liter flat 6 cylinder engines. In 2000, the original model was upgraded to a 2.7 liter engine and the Boxer S variant was equipped with a 3.2 liter motor. Aesthetically, the original boxster was modeled after the Porsche Spyder and Speedster.

The 987 Porsche boxster was introduced in 2005 and was created in a very similar style to the 986, with the exception of the headlights which were modified from the 'fried egg' look to those of the Carrera GT. For the first time in a boxster model, the wheel arches were enlarged to allow up to a 19 inch diameter wheel. The interior featured a circular theme in the cooling vents and instrument cluster areas.

All 986 and 987 Boxsters carry M96 water cooled, flat 6 cylinder engines. The mid-engine layout and M96 offer a low center of gravity, smooth ride, ideal weight distribution and good handling.
