1999 Porsche Boxster Base 2dr Convertible

1999 Porsche Boxster â?" Black on Grey, 5-Speed Manual, Clean Undercarriage Why This Car Is Special The 1999 Porsche Boxster represents something Porsche had not attempted since the 914: a purpose-built, mid-engine, open-top two-seater designed from a clean sheet. When the 986-generation Boxster arrived for the 1997 model year, it was not a parts-bin special or a trimmed-down 911. It was engineered specifically as a roadster, with the engine mounted behind the driver and ahead of the rear axle â?" the ideal placement for balanced, predictable handling. By 1999, the Boxster had already proven itself as one of the most capable driver's cars available at any price, and Porsche had worked through the earliest production teething concerns.
