Porsche Boxster 25 years a rare gem
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
Porsche 718 Boxster 25 years not only honours all its predecessors, it delivers in its own right.
It seems the days of the petrol engine are numbered with four litre powerhouses like the one in this car being a last hurrah and so, as they say if you’ve still got it you should flaunt it
And this car flaunts and celebrates in equal measure, you see it's now been a quarter of a century for Porsches entry level Boxster series, and we have belatedly managed to get the keys for one, so is this a badged up Boxster or are we about to drive one of the very best of the breed, well to find out, why not join me Roger Bailey for a Boxster celebration.

Nicely done. As a owner of a 25th edition I can say it’s a special car to drive. First time Porsche owner and look forward to more videos.

Thanks! 👍
Another enjoyable vignette - just the right length and tone. You always nail the soundtrack Roger. It’s such a shame that it took Porsche so long to overcome its insecurities about the Boxster (and Cayman) challenging the 911, and to give it the engines and performance that it was always clearly capable of exploiting, without detracting from the unique appeal of the 911. Spyder, GTS, GT4 and RS variants bookend the range perfectly. I imagine that you’re salivating at the prospect of getting behind the wheel of the Spyder RS. Looking forward to your experience with that!

thanks spook, good to see you again
One of your best videos to date and one of the coolest modern Porsches available at sensible money. Fantastic. ❤
Roger thanks for your great reviews and videos. They have been instrumental in my last two Porsche purchases. Please keep reviewing cars and making the great content you do. All the best
Yup. Its a beauty for sure. Thanks for the video. All the best.
I remember when the concept was shown in the magazines, and the surprise later by all at how close the production version was. Love the B roll, helps us to drink in the details!👍🏽
Thanks for the video, I will take one in silver with red interior please.

I love boxsters
its an excellent review Roger lovely filming and words, I'm just sad that these petrol engined cars will soon be made no more. My guess is that rare cars like this 25 years edition will become highly sought after, like I say its an excellent video, keep them coming

I hope so... I have one :) In Silver, with black interior and red stitching. I was thinking about the black one, but found the neodymium air scoops on the side a bit too much of a difference. I love the car.
Wonderful review RB. So good to see you back, you've been missed, hope all is well.

Thanks Jon , yes black is quite cool
Had a silver 986 boxster and painted the wheels satin poly gold. Then about a year later they launched this is silver! Genuinely a contender for the money this. But the look of this I love. (Silver)
The 25years really looks good in black. The neodymium gold details might be a bit much for me. Some great shots of the car. The BGTS4.0 is my dream car.
Thank you Roger! I've got so far my GR86. Next stop the 718, hopefully Spyder RS!
Thanks. Great well produced review. Looking forward to seeing the next one.

Wonderful review Roger. I’m fortunate to own #248 of 1250 and it’s the exact build shown here. I’ve owned the 997.2 cabriolet and got the missus a Macan recently, but the 25th has the best parking space in the garage. I can see keeping it until I’m unable to drive 😂. Newly subscribed to your channel and look forward to more of your videos, well done!

you have a gem there with the 25th, thanks for your comments and for subscribing - best wishes Roger
Hi Roger, have enjoyed your reviews (the 911 992 Cabriolet springs to mind). I bought this car (same colour spec etc) in Australia. I have the Cayenne Coupe GTS as it’s stablemate in the garage and love them both. Just the right power, without feeling overpowered. Plan on keeping the Boxster 25 for a long time. I bought and sold a Taycan Turbo S pretty quickly as (to me) it felt like I was the pilot rather than the driver (I have no idea if that makes sense to anyone else). I think SUVs suit the EV thing better than sports cars or sports sedans and I fear that the next Boxster (being an EV) will lose quite a bit of the visceral (and obviously aural) pleasure that the 4.0 brings…. Thanks again (sorry it took me a few months to see your review). Cheers.

A lot of cars tend to lose their looks over time. But I think the Boxster has improved from it's old sibling of 25 years or so ago. _It just looks better in so many small ways._ Trust the Jilly is better. Fingers crossed and best wishes for her. Your No1 Stalker ;-))...

Excellent scoop Roger! The only complaint i have on this is the Sound: i did not like it. Driving a GTI Clubsport myself with custom exhaust from Invidia dp on sportcat & Cobra Sport nonres catback in perfect combo im pretty picky. But designwise & drivingwise im sure its still a decent Porsche! 👍

You need to hear it in person. The video doesn't give it the justice it deserves. Sounds much better in real life :)
Buy a Boxster, the one you can afford, do your research and join the mid engine Porsche roadster fraternity. You will not be dissapointed.
