3.2L 250-258HP

You can tell the difference between each of the 3 engine sizes driven back-to-back.

The Boxster changes have been mostly evolutionary, but a 2001 will have improvements on a 98 (insulated ragtop, engine performance) and a 2004 will have more(glove box, glass rear window)

No Boxster choice is a bad Boxster choice (unless the car has been abused and not repaired well), but there are some differences that may seem significant. I spent some time to educate myself on the options, and feel it was time well spent.
