The engine snarls, particularly with the sports exhaust.
Handling is incredibly accurate and cornering is definitely a strong point. The brakes are powerful. You feel planted and secure at all speeds. Acceleration is effortless and with the mid-engine placement, balance is incredible.
As with most convertibles, vision out the back and the sides is obstructed with the top up. The humps on the side make shoulder checking almost pointless.
So what would I pick, the Spyder or the the Boxster S?
This decision is a tough one for me. This Spyder looks and feels incredible, but the manual canvas roof is a complete pain in the butt to put up and down! But, it makes no difference.
As a woman who is all about style, this Spyder has first place in my heart.

The Boxster Sypder is an amazingly hot roadster. It is a Boxster with styling that screams Porsche, and with added flare to it. (Lacey Elliott/Auto123.com) |
