Turbocharging did not gain the Boxster and Cayman any fans. The models kindly picked up 911 fans' spare derision when the transaxle cars left production in the mid-1990s, and have carried the torch of poor public perception from their predecessors.

Purists Rejoice! Porsche Puts the Six-Cylinder Back Into the 718 GTS
Stuffing a throaty six-cylinder in the back of a mid-tier Cayman or Boxster isn't ever going to be met with much opposition.

Of course, …

The 986 Boxster is a gem, but don't tell anyone how great it is. For those of us who know, this is one of the greatest Porsches to drive, own, and enjoy. It's truly a sports car you can drive everyday [I can confirm, I daily drove a 986 for several years!]. Right now the 986 is one of the best values in sports car ownership on the market today. …

While the 718 Cayman GTS brought plenty to the party, something was missing. True, the turbo four was punchier than the previous generation's six-cylinder atmospheric, but there was something amiss.

Porsche Cars North America is issuing a voluntary safety recall for 2017 through 2019 model year 718 Boxsters and Caymans.

It wasn't particularly visible during last year's SEMA show, as it was tucked away in some out-of-the-way booth, but I knew I had to track it down as soon as I heard about Bisimoto's Boxster. The trek to see it was well worth the walk, as it is easily the wildest Boxster I've ever laid eyes on. With a huge wing slung out where a 996's engine would …

Porsche has a habit of selling cars in incredibly interesting colors. From the very beginning they've had many interesting shades painted on the shapely fenders of their sports cars.

It takes a good sense of self to admit that we're not getting any younger. The world takes its toll on our bodies, minds, and occasionally fitness. We can't run as fast as we used to, and usually don't look as good as we used to. Our style has changed, and what was once fashionable is now dated and embarrassing to be seen wearing in public. There …

We've had "Project Boxster Clubsport" for quite a while now, but it's been dormant for over a year and it's time to rectify that. We purchased the Porsche for a song, and have been slowly making some moves to drop the car's weight and add a little more fun.
