After owning a Black '97 for a year, I recently bought a Speed Yellow 2001 Boxster S. Frankly the color makes me a little self conscious, but I have to say that I like it. I definately get noticed!

For my money, not only is the Boxster a true Porsche, it really is THE one true Porsche. Yes, even my (supposedly) underpowered '97. The 911 (996 and later models) have become hyperpowered,...

I recently bought a 97, and then got a nice matching hardtop off eBay because I plan to drive it through the winter. Admittedly, with 255/40/17s in the rear, I'm sure it will be really squirelly in...

I would be careful of any Boxster with more than 100,000 miles. Not to say they won't last, but the maintenance costs could get severe. By way of reference, I recently bought a 97 with 18,000...
