Boxster Top End

This is one of the things I like about the Boxster... It shines where others fade...

He won in them both if you watch until the end... the second one was from a stop, which we all know the 986 isn't ideal for.

I had a 20th Anniversary Edition GTI, just like the one in the video, except it was blue. Keep in mind this is an 180hp, FWD $24k car when bought new. Disappointing that it was even that close, given the Boxster's higher hp and lower weight. No to mention twice the cost of the GTI.... I'd say not the best driver out there.

Cant believe those 5 year olds on the youTube thread actually think that the Honda S2000 is a better car than a porsche... All they are doing is making excuses as to why there beloved jetski didnt do well on the track. All cars were driven in the same conditions, what more do you want.?!

Ummm anyone realize they ran a 3.0L Z4 and 2.7L Boxster? Why not the 3.2L Box?

Dude half the people on you tube have probably never even been inside a Boxster let alone drive one.
