That's a nice little car. I've always had a soft spot for the Boxster since the 986 models. I'll never forget my first time being driven in one as a teenager. The vibrations in your back from the engine inches behind you was such a thrill! And the sound... Perfect for the open road!
With the amount of horsepower this Caymen has, at it's size, it's going to be a blast. |

It will please the group that could not abide the turbo 4 in the 718s.
Now, if they would stick that engine in a Boxster without the "weight saving" manual canvas top (ie, a regular power top), that would get my attention. Luckily, they most likely won't do that so I can remain happy with my C4 cab. |

I think I might go for the spyder. But probably will have to get rid of the 991.1

Not happening. Manufacturers have to meet ever tightening corporate fuel consumption and emission standards worldwide. They can afford to have a handful of halo cars like this in the mix but the smaller displacement turbo motors for most of the fleet is here to stay.

you dont know for sure, who is to say that techniques to keep good fuel consumption cant be developed with na, and that turbo is a lazy type of fix, na engines last longer, wear better, so that in itself is economical. |

I had and enjoyed a 991.1 911, but pretty sure the only non-turbo Porsche cars left are the GT cars. |

One of the most pure sports cars out there. Always loved the GT4, a true Porsche.

I like it and Porsche stepped up on the power. The starting price is a little north of where I would ever consider one new but in the pre-owned market in a few years, maybe.
