So Porsche Can Continue to Preserve Its Brand Value

Thank You for Your Comment The other day, one of our blog readers left us this comment. I always enjoy reading your blog every day. After following it for a while, I’ve started wanting to buy a Panamera, and I’m now considering one! Your articles about options have been especially helpful! Wow—that’s wonderful! Thank you! Whenever I get a comment like this, I can’t help thinking: “It’s amazing that you can decide you want a...

The Porsche Boxster’s Trunk Holds More Than You’d Think—Even a Suitcase Fits with Room to...

Trunk Space in a Mid-Engine Roadster I’ve heard a lot of people say, “You can’t fit much in a Boxster’s trunk.” (I used to think so, too.) So I decided to put that claim to the test. The Boxster’s mid-engine layout, with the engine mounted in the middle of the car, leaves room for two trunks—one at the front and one at the rear. To open a trunk, you can give this lever under the...

A Porsche Boxster Road Trip from Hyogo to Fukui’s Beautiful Coast

Wind and Light,Boxster For years, my husband has been following a blog about Boxster road trips by someone known as “wata.” It seems to be well known among Boxster fans and road-trip enthusiasts. Wata shares journeys across Japan through blog posts and videos. The photography and video work are wonderful, but what really stands out is the sheer commitment to touring: covering 800 km in a day and reaching 100,000 km on the odometer in...

Porsche’s Upcoming Models as of August 2018: 911, Boxster Spyder, Cayenne Coupe and More

Porsche’s Upcoming Model Launches A little while ago, I started using Google Alerts to keep up with the latest Porsche news. Every day, I get around ten emails covering everything from promotions and press conferences to new models. But lately, there’s been so much news about upcoming Porsche launches that it’s getting hard to keep track. “The Boxster Spyder finally revealed!” “Spy shots of the new 911!” These headlines pop up all the time. But...

Porsche Boxster Interior Photos

Our 981 Boxster GTS Our 981 Boxster GTS was delivered in November 2015. This time, I’m taking a closer look at its interior. The GTS my husband bought is a 2015 model with left-hand drive, a manual transmission, and an all-black leather interior. The GTS came standard with the Sport Chrono Package, Sport Exhaust System, Porsche Active Suspension Management (PASM), and bi-xenon headlights with Porsche Dynamic Light System (PDLS) in a black finish. The options...

The Porsche 981 Boxster GTS: Why It Still Delivers After Two Years

Commuting in the 981 Boxster GTS My husband commutes in his manual 981 Boxster GTS about once a week. When we first took delivery, he drove it to work every day to get used to the manual transmission and break in the engine. But at some point, he decided that “The round trip from home to work is about 50 kilometers, so it feels like a waste to rack up the mileage just commuting.” Since...

981 Boxster GTS vs. SL500 (R129): Which Is Better for a Road Trip?

My Husband’s Annual Road-Trip Tradition During Golden Week last week, my husband headed out on his usual holiday tradition: a solo, four-day, three-night road trip. While he was away, my daughters and I visited my parents. Right up until the day before he left, he was debating: “Should I take the Boxster this time, or the SL?” He usually takes his 981 Boxster GTS with a manual transmission. But since buying an SL500 (R129) a...

A 981 Boxster GTS Owner on the Appeal of Porsche’s Last Naturally Aspirated Six-Cylinder

Our 2016 Boxster The 2016 Boxster GTS with a manual transmission in our garage was my husband’s first Porsche. Porsche is increasingly focused on efficiency, and the 911—and now the Boxster—has moved toward turbocharging and smaller engines. That makes the 2016 Boxster one of the last six-cylinder models, often described as the final naturally aspirated six-cylinder Boxster.(The current 718 Boxster has a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder.) *Photo courtesy of Aitan Kai on Twitter, @ConeManLP826 .
