Love the commentary from a regular, car loving person like yourself. So tired of the wealthy YouTubers with collections of pricey cars. You genuinely appreciate these cars, as opposed to some, who change them like watches.<br><br>I wish you many many happy miles.

The gts boxter is quite the sportscar. I like it better than the 911 because it's something meant to be driven daily without reservations or being too pretentious or hard edge. The handling dynamics are so wonderful when you push it and that incredible level of confidence at 9/10ths pace, and that sound with the top down just perfect!

I Test drove a 2017 718 Boxster about 3 years ago (Background---I was a Mercedes test driver in Stuttgart for 4 years in the early 2000's... owned a BMW 1-Series over there), and the 718 is, of course, phenomenal! <br><br>So when Sweetcars got a 2001Boxster S in Seal Gray on consignment, I HAD to pull the trigger--- even with "only" 250 HP from the 3.2-liter SIX, I'm always, Always left with a beaming from grin! AND THE SOUND! Came with Sport Exhaust, and the Symphony from 3500 to 6000 is absolutely addictive! <br>The extra bits and bobs Porsche puts into the Boxster S are Unmistakable and you won't want to live without them once you've experienced the difference! <br>This IS POSSIBLY the most pivotal Series for Porsche, since it's inclusion breathed new life into Porsche sales, and possibly saved the company. <br>It's a piece of Porsche history that cannot be overstated and I never want to give up this car... Only add others! Dream Cars from the Porsche lineup? <br>997 Turbo S<br>If I'm ever wealthy, A GT3 Touring.

They are lovely and that one’s lovely, though a 987 / 981 Boxster gives you more of an emotional driving experience. I just love the rasp of a Porsche 6

This is why I love your channel, great car that is appreciated by it’s owner and not some YouTuber flipping numerous brand new shiny cars that all cost telephone numbers.

The exhuast reminds me of my STI with the unqueal length headers.

I can see Porsche's point about the radiator grilles and warranty. It's the same issue with the oil radiator on my BMW R9T motorbike - to fit a grill or not? No doubt Porsche will argue that they have sized the radiators to give adequate cooling in all outside air temperatures with the rad intake unrestricted. Any grill will restrict the flow through the rad, often more so than might seem obvious. For instance, you might still get 90% of the airflow with a grill in place, but that airflow will be turbulent having passed through the grill, and turbulent air will hit the rad at odd angles and might not flow through the rad core in a linear and relatively unrestricted fashion.<br>Chances are in UK it won't matter as we don't often get air temps much above 35C whereas the car is probably speced to operate in much higher temps than that. But you know Germans - rules is rules; they designed it the way it is, not the way you've modded it!

I like the practical vibe you spin on this review. Much more relatable. Dream cars are awesome but this is a real option more attainable by more of us. Thanks for sharing!
