Motor Trend compares the Boxster S

The June 2010 Motor Trend actually starts their article by declaring Porsche the winner. They go on to say that the other three were competing for 2nd, 3rd, and 4th. The superlatives were non-stop on the Boxster S.
"The Boxster S is the very best roadster you can get for the money." "But in this contest of speed, style, and top-down dominance, it wasn't even close." "So engaging to pilot, this car epitomizes automotive euphoria." Not bad quotes.
Even more amazing, the Spyder is a Boxster S taken to an even higher level purity and performance. The Spyder is lighter, lower, more powerful, and a touch more hard core. It's no wonder that the mid-engine cars from Porsche are universally praised and remain a moving target for the competition.
The labels: entry level, baby Porsche, and the politically incorrect "chick's car" couldn't be further from the truth with the exception that, yes, women drive them too.

Spyder Impressions

Three employees with at least a combined 100 years of Porsche experience all agree. The Spyder is the real deal. This is no sheep in wolf's clothing. The Spyder has a distinct look that separates it from a Boxster, but it's what's underneath its skin that makes it special.
The Spyder handles like it's on rails. It stays flat in the corners and is very predictable. Reports are now coming in from PCA driver education (track) programs that have the Porsche Sport Driving School instructors passing almost everything on the track. Yes, these are great drivers, but power to weight, center of gravity, weight distribution, suspension tuning, and everything else that comprises Porsche engineering makes the Spyder a giant killer. Historically, Porsche has used this same formula to achieve incredible feats in racing. There is a purity about the Spyder that transcends transportation. Jack McCall, Rodger Gay, and David Moore will all tell you the Spyder has won them over. This is the new weapon of choice for our annual assault on the winding roads of the Ozarks.

Boxster Spyder: The Verdict Is In!

The verdict is in: the Boxster Spyder qualifies as an everyday driver. Houston has now experienced some of its torrential downpours. So far not a drop, excluding opening the door, has found its way into the Spyder. As I zipped up the interstate I watched the water curl around the A-pillars and land on the hydrophobic side windows. It danced along the line where the glass met the canvas top, but never managed to push beyond that line.

I was impressed as the Spyder progressed into Valentine 1 speeds. My take was even if it did leak, I would not be dissuaded from enjoying such a thoroughly entertaining Porsche. That was a compromise I didn't have to make. While the Spyder may be intended for purists, its owners need not enter the realm of masochism. Even those who may not consider themselves purists, can keep the Spyder on their list.
I can't say I know what a barrel of monkeys is like, but I'll bet the Spyder is more fun.

- Review by Jack McCall

The Boxster Spyder is truly a driver's car. Porsche has taken "systems engineering" to new heights with the Spyder. A spread sheet evaluation can't begin to tell you what a great car this is. While the Spyder clearly wasn't intended to be something for everyone, it most certainly can be everything to someone.
Not having pushed a car recently, the Spyder begs to be driven. It actually makes commuting fun. If anyone thinks Porsche forgot how to build a true sports car, drive the Spyder. It will connect you directly and instantly to the driving experience as it was intended. Rolling a tire over a quarter, one could discern whether or not it was heads or tails. At the same time, the ride is not punishing and the top is liveable. The Spyder's beauty is much more than skin deep.
