2001 Porsche Boxster

Bright, bold, and ready to thrill this 2001 Porsche Boxster in stunning Blue with a refined Gray leather interior is a superb example of timeless Porsche roadster engineering. Exceptionally well cared for and in excellent overall condition, this Boxster has a clean CARFAX and shows below 88,000 miles (an average of less than 4,000 miles per year), so it drives and presents the way a properly maintained low-mileage Porsche should. Heart of the car: the engine At its core is a naturally aspirated 2.0L H6 (horizontally opposed/boxer six-cylinder) with a double overhead cam (DOHC) layout and 24 valves. This engine is characteristically Porsche: compactly packaged in the mid-engine bay, it breathes freely, revs eagerly, and produces a delicious, linear power delivery that rewards enthusiastic driving. The boxer configuration keeps the center of gravity low for exceptional handling balance, and the DOHC/24V design helps the motor rev smoothly and efficiently across the range. The result is that distinctive Porsche soundtrack a crisp, purposeful tone that gets more satisfying as the tach rises. Fuel economy and daily use This Boxster is pleasantly efficient for a sports car of its era, returning EPA-equivalent performance of approximately 17 MPG in the city and 25 MPG on the highway. Its combination of lively performance and reasonable economy makes it a versatile weekend companion or spirited daily driver. Factory equipment and standard features This Boxster retains its original factory-spec equipment, thoughtfully designed for driver engagement and comfort: - Chassis and suspension: 4-wheel independent suspension with a geometry tuned for balance and precise response; MacPherson-style front suspension and a multi-link rear setup deliver the hallmark Porsche handling communicative steering, confident turn-in, and excellent composure through corners. - Transmission: A smooth-shifting manual gearbox was standard on many Boxsters of this era (with automatic Tiptronic as an available alternative). The manual delivers a connected, tactile experience that complements the cars lively engine character. - Brakes and stopping power: Ventilated disc brakes at all four corners provide strong, fade-resistant stopping power and excellent pedal feel under spirited driving or everyday use. - Exterior styling: Classic Porsche proportions, sculpted sides, and the signature Boxster silhouette in a vivid Blue finish. Factory alloys complement the profile, with body-color bumpers and integrated aerodynamic detailing for a clean, purposeful look. - Convertible top and comfort: A well-sealed soft folding top offers open-air motoring pleasure. The roof operates easily and stows neatly, preserving the elegant lines of the roadster whether up or down. - Interior appointments: Premium Gray leather upholstery covers supportive sport seats that cradle occupants through twisty roads and long drives alike. The cockpit is driver-focused with logical controls, a leather-wrapped steering wheel, and clear, easy-to-read instrumentation. - Climate and convenience: Efficient heating and A/C system, power windows, and power door locks provide everyday comfort and convenience. Remote key access adds practicality. - Audio and connectivity: Factory-installed Porsche sound system with AM/FM and CD capability delivers clear audio for cruising. Sound tuning in the compact cabin produces an engaging listening experience alongside the engine note. - Safety: Dual front airbags, ABS braking system, and a rigid occupant cell help provide peace of mind without compromising the lightweight, agile character of the car. Practical touches Storage is practical for a two-seater: the mid-engine layout leaves a front trunk and a rear luggage area, useful for weekend bags or grocery runs.
