The Appeal
Don’t mess with success. That was surely the mantra when Porsche unveiled the second-generation Boxster. The original had introduced buyers to a car that delivered 911-level engagement, but with a different mid-engined feel.
The 987 is popular with enthusiasts because it improved on the original but it lighter and nimbler than its successors. The simply named S is, for many, the one to have because it adds the performance to match the chassis’ capabilities.
This 3. 2litre 270bhp S is an early 987 owned by a serial Boxster enthusiast. Fellow fans will clock the desirable specification in the photographs, including the manual box and Sport Chrono package. Careful enhancements include an ECU upgrade and EuroCup exhaust system.
