Porsche redesigned its Boxster and Boxster S roadsters for 2005, and for 2007 it gave both models more power and torque. Both Boxsters got Porsche's VarioCam Plus system, which provides variable intake valve timing and lift control. For 2008, the Boxster continues a series of yearly tweaks with new optional folding bucket seats, a new interior leather color and a new exterior body color. Rivals include the Audi TT, BMW Z4, Honda S2000 and Mercedes-Benz SLK-Class.  Read More
