Porsche Boxster 2020 in-depth review | carwow Reviews

This is the all-new Porsche Boxster! It’s the baby brother to the 911, and it's always somewhat lived in its shadow. But with the new range-topping GTS packing a 365hp 2.5-litre under the bonnet, coupled with a price that’s around £30,000 less than a 911, is it time for the Boxster to stand up and get noticed? Join Mat for his latest in-depth review to find out!

3.7 to 60 in a 4 cylinder. Amazing how quickly cars are progressing.

I think Carwow should do reviews for classics as if they were new.. like a retro carwow sort of thing. Would be quite slick

[swanblake]

I actually really do appreciate the exhaust note comparison. Many talk about it but never actually demonstrate it. Thank you

I attended a Porsche Experience track day recently and drove the following on the local road track: 911 GTS, 911T, Cayman S and Boxster GTS.. The Boxster was the best handling of the bunch (of course the 911 GTS had the most power). After my stint in the Boxster someone came up and asked me what I thought of the sound..Sound? I hadn't even thought about it. I honestly didn't even notice the sound at all. I was just having too much fun driving to care.

"It's a little bit like an android phone. In the way that it's always lived in the shadow of the 911, with the 911 being an apple phone."


Oh Mat, do you have any idea what kind of a sh*tstorm you have just created?

A shout out to the production team, I love how the colors just pop in your videos.

The 718 Spyder seems like the dream car! Same car, but slightly better looking and with a naturally aspirated 6 cylinder!

[iwwanly]

Porsche won't give Matt a car again for throwing that window away in the forest 😂

[seipai]

Ah, the Rebecca Jackson reference from the old days! 😎

[iCharls]

Thanks to Mercedes, for now having Real exhaust pipes coming out of rear is being called a cool feature

[arashk]

2:18 now Mat looks bored doing the equipment list section😂😂😂😂😂😂

[marcsys]

why is mat starting to look 2 years older every 2 months?

[johannesvograg]

The 718 Boxter Spyder and the Cayman GT4, which is also a 718, are offered with a N/A 6cyl boxer and a manual transmission. perfect.

11:38 if you look behind him you will see ForestBoy, a mythological creature from ancient tales.
It's said that the sound of 718's engine makes him so sad that he sits alone and looks down for hours.
