With an all-new 2013 model on the horizon, the Porsche Boxster receives minimal changes for the 2012 model year.
Now entering its tenth model year and third iteration, the Boxster continues to reap the benefits of Porsche's traditional evolutionary method of engineering. Last year's introduction of the Cayman, basically a more powerful, hardtop version, demoted the Boxster to the bottom of the Porsche lineup in terms of power. For 2007 the Boxster climbs up to equal footing, thanks to a power boost that equips the Boxster S with the same 3.4-liter, 295-horsepower powerplant of the Cayman S, while the "just plain" Boxster and Cayman receive the 245-horsepower, 2.7-liter engine. On paper the numerical difference seems minor but, on the road, the improvement in performance and drivability, especially in the base model Boxster, is remarkable.
