2011 Porsche Boxster Spyder is not playing around



We know all the "Big Dog" car companies make entry level cars for us "regular" guys. Unfortunately, affordable pricing usually means a crappy car. A Porsche is a Porsche, no matter how you slice it, but for many years the Boxster forced you to call it crappy. Tiny interior, generic styling, and unless you got a type S, pretty regular performance, the Boxster was indeed the poor man's Porsche. In 2005, the Boxster finally started to live up to its bloodlines, with a redesign that brought power AND swagger. For 2011, the new Boxster took steroids and spent 100k on cosmetic surgery. Besides being the lightest Porsche out, it packs over 320 horsepower stock, and has "Carerra GT jr" styling, which is a huge plus if you like the 2004-06 monster as much as I do. However, at a 62k base price, this sure isn't the poor man's Porsche anymore. Read the review and check out some great pictures from Car and Driver here.
