Most reliable car I ever owned

Great car, a blast to drive, easy to park, insurance is cheep, always turns heads and thumbs up when I take it out. Almost always have someone stop me and asks about the car or tell me about theirs.

End of Summer Special!

This Boxster has super low mileage (40,500 miles). Its great fun and in very good condition. It has a new clutch, new brakes, and new mats. Needs drivers' seat refurbished. Price: $12,000.

This is such a fun car to drive!

This car is beautiful! We are so happy we got it, and it is so rare (only 500 sent to US). The color combination pf silver and chocolate brown is gorgeous and umique. We can't wait til summer to put the top down.

Like video game racing and performance but real!

I'm 6' so I wish this was a bit more room - now if your into self driving cars this isn't it - this car is more like a surgeons scalpel precise - it does exactly what you tell it to do right when you tell it to do it. Aside from the fact that its rear profile is more akin to Pininfarina then Bauhaus - you will have a constant smile on your face driving this car and you don't need the "S" variation offered by Porsche its insanely fast in the standard version

Very reliable with minimal maintenance.

For the price, it's a bargain! It IS a Porsche throughout, after all. Great performance and highly reliable. Without kids, its a great commuter car or just going out for a drive. With two trunks there is plenty of storage for baggage or just groceries.

Unbelievably fun to drive

This was our 3rd car (really my second car - my wife didn't drive it much), and made me feel like a kid again. The performance with the mid-engine is outstanding, ease of putting the top down was amazing - just an incredible car to drive.

Best cheap yet can perform car

This car meet all of my needs, and exceeded my expectations. There is never a dull moment while driving; Fun, handles great, and very reliable. The only repairs I've had to do are per the service recommendation at certain miles marks, and once the alternator failed to charge the battery after 14 years, but that was not that bad to replace.
