Porsche 986 Boxster 2001

[randomwalk]

My 01 Porsche Boxster, I had this as a weekend car in Australia for a few years, loved the balance of it, would always look for the long way home.

Car is from 2001 and doesn't have a front middle grill under the number plate so should be a 2.7

Decent motor, always liked the look of these. Sporty enough sound too!

The perfect motor for top down driving.

I always enjoy a spot of fun and a tear up with the basic Porsches on Motorway slip roads etc...

I like the Cayman and Boxster, tried sitting in one I don't fit in too well though due to my gangly legs.

its the 2.7, not an S unfortunately, felt faster than it actually was, so well balanced you could brake late for corners, although in wet you got to watch the back end does not step out.

im 6,2 and I never could really get properly comfortable, to recline the seat adequately I found I had to move seat forward (due to the firewall behind the seat) which then meant my legs were a bit bent and cramped.

Great looking car, but would look better without the orange..

I am 6ft 5, never had an issue with getting comfy...



loved the car though, always drove it top down if possible.

looks like a clone of mine. I am surprised you could get comfortable, for me it was a compromise my legs felt bent, I had no problem with headroom just found I would have liked the seat further back which was not possible without having the backrest upright
