Porsche Boxster
The Boxster has become the Porsche of choice for those who cannot afford the 911. Starting at $58,000, the Boxster brings together everything that Porsche does well. Two versions are offered, the base model and the S. The first comes with a 2.9-litre engine while the second features a 3.4-litre six-cylinder. As for the Spyder, it’s essentially an even sportier Boxster S.
