Boxster S
The Boxster. First unveiled at the Detroit
Motor Show in 1993, its market launch
followed just three years later. Like any
Porsche car, it manages to reconcile
seemingly contradictory notions: tradition
and innovation, performance and practi
-
calit y, st yle and function. It reflects the
art of engineering and is a real credit to
the ‘Dr. Ing.’ in our company name.
There are many apt descriptions for the
Boxster. Whether it is known as a design
classic, a powerful sports car or a pure-
bred roadster, it does full justice to the
legendary Porsche cars of the past: from
the 356 No. 1 and the 550 Spyder to the
718 RS 60 Spyder. To ensure that this holds true in the
future, we have further refined the
Boxster concept with a sport y and har -
monious exterior and interior design,
with an uncompromising lightweight con -
struction, innovative technologies and
increased power output at the same time
as enhanced efficiency. In other words,
Intelligent Performance.
What was our motivation? Driving pleasure,
of course, and a clear dedication to free -
dom. A freedom that you also enjoy with
the personalisation options available to
you. The Boxster S in Guards Red is a per -
fect example of our idea of customisation.

Leather
Leather is a traditional natural material –
a true classic. Items made of leather are
both timeless and hardwearing.
Alcantara
This high-qualit y material is easy to care
for, washable and has excellent non-slip
properties.
Mahogany 2)
Mahogany is a dark, fine wood. Its fine
grain gives it a very modern and elegant
look.
Carbon
Carbon is a light but highly durable mate -
rial which has its origins in motorsport.
Its sport y look is the ideal complement
to the car’s race-bred engineering.
Aluminium
Brushed aluminium sets clear accents
and gives the interior a sport y, minimalist
appearance.
2) Since wood is a natural product, there may be variations in colour and grain.1) Must be technically feasible and meet Porsche qualit y requirements.
Exceptional, extravagant,
exquisite, excellent, exact.
In a word: Exclusive.
