How fast is a Porsche Boxter S ???
 
Just wondering the above, as I ate one for breakfast on the M6 yesterday:D

Any car is only as fast as the owner want's it to be.

Maybe he wasn't trying. Maybe it was brand new, so he engine was tight. Or just maybe he couldn't be @rsed to race you. :)

Left a big dirty grin on mine:D

Surprisingly, the driver of the boxter wasn't smiling:wonder:

Oh he was arsed alright...he baited me for about 3 miles, right up my backside. I only gave in because he kept pulling into the fast lane and was side by side with me, egging me on..so, I waited for a nice big gap and off I went, He kept up with me for about 10 seconds, think he wished he hadn't bothered!:lol1:

How fast in a Boxster S? The latest shape is:-

206 kW (280 bhp) at 6,200 rpm

0-100 km/h (62 mph) in 5.5 secs

Top speed: 268 km/h (166 mph)

Pics:- http://www.porsche.com/uk/models/box...ter-s/gallery/

Not great in straight line performance, very good handling car though, great fun to drive :thumb:

For bhp and specs for all the Porsche range it's all on http://www.porsche.com/uk :cool:

Threads like this are handy as it really shows out those who are NOT proper driving enthusiasts.

Porsche make great drivers cars, fact. Now you may not want to buy one and there may be many people out there who buy them to pose in etc. However, this does not detract from the cars themselves. Before you criticise the typical porsche driver, look at the typical scoob driver first ;)

As for 'poor mans whatever', what an absurd and silly point. EVERY car is a poor mans something else. Buy a Ferrari F430 why? It's a poor mans Enzo :rolleyes: Now there's many here I'm sure have recently left school (or still there!) but most of you are grown adults. A bit of joshing and winding up is great and we all do it. However if you're one of those that seriously believes some of the tripe I've heard on this thread (and others) then you really need to wake up.

:p :D

Dont think outright straight line speed is a Boxster forte, I had a go at one in my Saab 9-3 and the girl driving it was thrashing it and there wasnt an awful lot in it, and mines only the humble 150 bhp lpt model, however I would rather have a Boxster than a Saab 9-3 or a pink Subaru anyday, even if it does make you look like an budget airline pilot, come to think of it I would mind being a budget airline pilot either.

Totally agree.......... its posts like this that highlight just where this BBS has gone and reinforce the reason why I rarely post anything here anymore.

Chav's - who are they ? Look no further than this post :eek:

As for the Saab vs Boxster S statement - well its really not worth saying anything more is there...... :rolleyes:
