First sold in the US in 1997 the Porsche Boxster, also known as the 986 was a hit for Porsche. Named by combining the words "Boxer" and "Roadster", the Boxster would be its best selling vehicle until 2003. Featuring a rear mounted 2.5 liter flat six cylinder engine the Boxster pushed out 201 horsepower. It came with either a manual or tiptronic transmission. In 2001 the Boxster's engine was upgraded to 2.7 liters which made an extra 16hp. Porsche also introduced the new Boxster S the same year, which had a 250hp 3.2 liter engine.

Headlights lost their amber bases and tail lights also lost their amber in favor of clear. New wheel options were also added for 2003. Front bumper and rear bumper were made to look more aggressive.

It stayed true to the original design while updating nearly everything on the car. The most noticeable changes being re-shaped headlights, larger side ducts and larger wheel wells to accommodate optional 19" wheels.
