I have owned my 98 Boxster since it was new. I have enjoyed it immensely. It was my daily driver in the northeast for 15 years and averaged 25 miles to the gallon, summer and winter. With snow tires and less than 6 inches of snow I went everywhere I needed to go. The hard top was an added bonus that changed the look of the car. I have driven it to its top 149 MPH speed and it was scary as hell being so close to the ground. I did a 12 hour drive with it once and needed an adjustment when it was over. It drives and handles really well and is just fun to drive. There have been a lot of very expensive repairs and maintenance over the years, but its styling and performance balance that out. If your looking for a cheap ride, this is not it.

The car is comfortable for me, it is very much fun to drive, the suspension is tight for tight curves around the mountains, top in speed is fast, I receive frequent compliments, very reliable, dependable car.

My hobby, 1998 Boxster base with 1999 3.4 911 engine, many modifications.
I have done several of these engine swaps and have become quite familiar with the mechanics of the car and engine. It is a very easy conversion to make and offers fantastic results but I can do very little with the Bosch Motronics, must send them out. The Boxster is a real road car in the turns especial with the extra power the 911 engine adds to its ability. I do drive my car hard and pay the price but its what I like to do.They can be had for a very reasonable price, unfortunately the cost of the 911 engine has become very unreasonable.

Vintage Boxster
It restores your love of driving. It is a little loud on the freeway but it is just fun to drive.
