#2009 porsche 911 s sport chrono plus specs driver#
Convertible luxury with a driver bias might pit it against a BMW Z4, Audi TTS, or Mercedes-Benz SLK, while the performance shopper may also have a Lotus Elise or Exige, Honda S2000, or maybe even a Mazda RX8 on the list. The Boxster is so well-rounded it could come up on many shopping lists. There are two compact trunks to carry a week's worth of groceries or luggage in soft-sided bags, and they won't get singed on a sporting road. The cabin has plenty of room and can accommodate tall individuals, and insulation, refinement and equipment match many sedans. A six-speed manual replaces a five-speed as standard on the Boxster, and both plain and S versions may be offered with a new seven-speed double-clutch gearbox (PDK) that is Porsche's most advanced transmission.īoxster is perhaps the most practical mid-engine convertible sports car available.
The major upgrade for 2009 is completely revised powertrains, with new engines giving the Boxster and Boxster S their biggest power increases yet and improved efficiency. Length and track have changed by fractions of an inch and the basic shape and size remain. So the 2009 Boxster that is heavily revised is still instantly recognizable as a Boxster. Porsche does not make major changes very often, preferring to get the basics right from the start and continue fine tuning from there on. The engine note is invigorating, the handling crisp, the ride elastic, the brakes sublime and the interior ideal for driving, but it is how all this works in harmony that makes the Boxster such an entertaining car. The Porsche Boxster is a delightful sports car that is equally at ease being pushed to its limits or sauntering through traffic jams.
