2002 Porsche Boxster consumer reviews

My car had the IMS bearing replaced. With that said it has been a very reliable car. I use it as an everyday driver and also on the autocross track for fun. It now has 75k miles and is still a very trusted driver. I love this car!

Reliability, ease of maintenance, fuel economy, ergonomics, I don’t see what’s not to love about the first generation Boxster. I even decided to keep my 986 boxster over a performance tuned 996 turbo... that’s how much I like this platform. It’s a wonderful design and doesn’t seem to get the attention it deserves. I’ve daily driven my boxster extensively over the past year, road tripping from Colorado to Florida to California and even down to Arizona. Miles of smiles.

Zippy and Corners like a champ- perfect for sunny days soaking up that vitamin D!! Easy to maintain and turns heads every time I drive it!

Betsy loves mountain roads . The feel of her is best when really driven , thrown into curves then so quick to the next. Driving this car is absolutely a pleasure. So very acutely responsive , handles hands down better than any other car I've driven.

Love it! Great convertible, easy to upgrade and maintain. Bought new, 5th Porsche, 2nd Boxster much more power as an S and easy to handle. Gave to my wife when I ordered 2007 Cayman S/R, which is even faster but not a Convertible.

GREAT way to enjoy Porsche's performance without breaking the bank. The car fits to your body to make driving a whole-body experience. Drive one! Classy and capable performance.

The ultimate budget sports car. Made to handle the curves like a dream. One of the sharpest looking cars on the road. As a Porsche it gets attention most everywhere it goes. The only down side is the expense of repairs. Amazing car for the money.

Bought the car used and immediately took off on trips, the first being the Blue Ridge Parkway. The way the car handles around corners, that it will fly when you need it, but will take its time just as well. Never owned a car as long and still love it. Best car for adventures and travel I've ever owned.

This car has power, panache, and it's a Porsche! Incredible torque and horsepower for such a small car. Beautiful paint. Easy roof retraction. Love it.

Porsche is definitely the best made European car. A used Boxster is so affordable and fun and practical. It is so reliable and easy to maintain.
