Porsche Boxster 2.7L Convertible 2014
The year is 1996, a mid-engined two-seater convertible roles off the ramps to the rescue of an embattled German sports car manufacturer – this car was the Porsche Boxster.
It is well renowned that the Porsche Boxster quintessentially saved the company, and in 2019 which is 3 distinct generations, it is still at the forefront of their market. It may not be a notorious supercar, but a superstar among sports cars it most undoubtedly is. With the Boxster being one of the cheaper Porsche’s on offer, it stands at the gateway of marque ownership meaning it is tasked with welcoming people to the Porsche branding and making a statement. The 2014 Porsche Boxster defined the luxury sports roadster segment with power, grace and style alike; it rewards the more capable drives with still offering encouragement for those still learning, the Boxster’s quick acceleration, well-rounded handling, and stunning exterior and interior design makes it a top pick in the sports car class. The base Boxster model is rewarded with a 2.7-litre flat six-cylinder engine which offers 265 horsepower. This engine is capable of a 0-60mph run in just 5.5 seconds, and with a top speed of 164mph, the Boxster is remarkably quick. It’s safe to say the Boxster is anything but a compromised sports roadster excelling in terms of both sporting driving dynamics and during the daily run-of-the-mill drives; the balance is the by-product of a well-tuned chassis, mid-engine layout, and Porsche’s unique brand of engineering and style.
