2009 Porsche Boxster
The 2009 Porsche Boxster was the second generation of the car, however, the car is not as similar to the first generation as many people thought it would be. The car received a few minor exterior upgrades and changes that helped to make it appear slightly different from older models. The new lighting that was introduced on the 2009 Boxster coupled with the near front and rear ends, the car appeared to be even more sportier than previous models. In addition, the car also introduced wider air inlets in the front. Looks wise the 2009 Boxster is fairly a replica of the 2009 Cayman. However, those that are wanting the performance of a Boxster are going to be fairly surprised by the changes that the car had under the hood and the interior of the car.
Engine choices, those that want a 2009 Boxster had the option of the 2.9 liter engine or the 3.4 liter engine in the Boxster S. However, when it comes to performance, what is really going to make a difference is the direct fuel injection technology that Porsche has installed on the cars. This new technology is not only helping the performance of the car, it is also increasing the fuel mileage that the Boxster is giving, which was a huge success and something that people of the time were looking for as gas prices began to climb to what they are now.
In addition, what also helps the 2009 Boxster is the transmission. In all reality, the car has two separate transmission that each allow for the car to shift gears. This gives shorter time between the gears and easier to change gears, which was a common complaint of Porsche lovers everywhere.
The interior of older Boxsters were often described as looking too cheap for a car of the price and performance that the Boxster offered. However, with the 2009 Boxster, Porsche ditched these concepts, which was long past due. The interior was considered one of the best first class interiors that was on the market at the time. Plus, Porsche added audio equipment that made the car even more stylish and appealing to those in the market to buy a Porsche.
Driving wise, those that had the opportunity to own and drive the 2009 Boxster on a regular basis never tired of the experience. The handling of the car is incredible, while the feel of driving the car is of equal astonishment. However, what really made the car fun to drive is the transmission. The transmission shifts into gears without even giving the driver the slightest jerk, which is something that other sports cars cannot promise. Another feature that most people talked about was the fact that it could be driven in automatic and manual mode. The automatic mode was so precise that most people found it shifted gears just when they would if driving in the manual option.
Overall, the 2009 Boxster was more similar to a Porsche 911 than it was to the previous models of Boxsters. Which made many people thrilled and running out to buy a 2009 Boxster. For more information about the top cars of 2009 visit asmc09.org.
