HTML The Porsche Boxster 2007 The Porsche Boxster 2007 Author: Joan C The Boxster is a mid-engined roadster built by Porsche. The first-generation Boxster (the 986) was introduced in late 1996 as a 1997 model. It was Porsche's smallest and least expensive vehicle, taking over from the front-engine Porsche 968, which was discontinued in 1995. Early Boxster models were powered by a 201 horsepower 2.5 litre flat six-cylinder engine. In 2000, a 2.7 litre, 217 horsepower engine replaced the original engine in the base model, and the new Boxster S variant was introduced with a 3.2 litre, 250 horsepower engine. In 2003 a minor update gave the Boxster's 2.7-liter engine 225 horsepower and the Boxster S's 3.2-liter engine 258 horsepower. In 2005, updates were substantial enough that Porsche internally identified the Boxster as a new 987 model. Engine output was increased again, to 240 and 280 horsepower respectively for the base and S cars. In 2007, the Boxster and Boxster S were upgraded with the 2.7L, 245hp engine from the Porsche Cayman and the 3.4L, 295hp engine from the Porsche Cayman S, respectively. Production of the 986 began at the former Porsche 928 facility in Stuttgart Germany in 1996, although a Valmet facility in Uusikaupunki, Finland also builds units under contract to Porsche in order to help meet demand. It was Porsche's biggest volume seller from its introduction in model year 1997 until the company introduced the Cayenne utility vehicle in model year 2003. The Boxster's name is a combination of the word "boxer", referring to the vehicle's horizontally-opposed or "boxer" engine, and the word "roadster", referring to the vehicle's convertible top.
