the single most important thing about the Boxster in my opinion is that its the first
pure roadster to be built by Porsche.
All other convertibles built by Porsche in the past started out as a sport coupe. Porsche hacked off the roofs (rooves?) to meet customer demmands for drop top fun. These hacked coupes have been the best selling Porsches.
The Boxster was designed to be a convertible and the coupe came later.

Top Gear named it the best sports car in the world because according to them
a pure sports car was one that had little practicality, rear wheel drive, only two passengers and no roof.
