When Porsche debuted a new two-seat roadster for the first time since the much-maligned 914 of the 1970s, there was some skepticism from even the most diehard enthusiasts. But when this Arctic Silver Metallic 1997 Porsche Boxster (and many others like it) came along, it didn't take long for those reservations to fade almost as quickly as the car itself. With just 58,438 actual miles on its odometer, this stylish two-seater is highly original and in exceptional condition. The original equipment theme continues with its classic Black interior. The snug and sporty cockpit is highlighted by the Boxster's signature three-pod gauge cluster that features the tachometer sitting front-and-center instead of the more traditional speedometer-centric setups found in most other cars. An upgraded Continental AM/FM/AUX/USB radio with Bluetooth provides your favorite soundtrack for touring. Technically, it doesn't have a hood to look under, if we were to look behind the seats from under the car ,there is a sweet-sounding 2.5-liter naturally aspirated flat-six that produces 201 hp and 181 lb-ft of torque. Power from that mid-mounted six is then routed through a slick-shifting five-speed manual transmission before being sent off to the rear wheels. With just 2850 pounds to haul, Car and Driver ran one of these drop-tops from 0-60 in just 6.2 seconds and through the quarter mile in a respectable 14.8 seconds at 93 mph back in April of 1997.
