Porsche Boxster 2019

The Boxster is available with either a 300-hp turbocharged 2.0-liter flat-four-cylinder engine (base model), a 350-hp turbocharged 2.5-liter flat-four (S model), or a 365-hp turbocharged 2.5-liter flat-four (GTS model). All three engines come standard with an excellent, satisfying six-speed manual gearbox, but can also be equipped with Porsche's clairvoyant seven-speed dual-clutch automatic. Unsurprisingly, the highest-powered GTS model with the automatic transmission managed a brisk 3.6-second run from zero to 60 mph in our testing. The base and S models are certainly no slouches at our test track, though, with 4.4- and 4.3-second results in that same test, respectively; both of those models were tested with the six-speed manual.
