The 2015 Porsche Boxster Spyder is that kind of a roadster that takes something very good and made it better in every way.
And add some magic more afterward. It all started with a basic Boxster, which was upgraded with a 911 engine. But this was not enough. Underneath the sleek body reshaped for the Spyder lies a stiffer chassis, bigger brakes and steering carried over the 911 Carrera.

The bodywork was slightly reshaped, with a longer front bumper re-designed in the 1960s Porsche 718 Spyder style. Two humps behind the seats are hiding the manually operated soft-top. Neither radio nor an air conditioner is included as standard equipment to reduce weight. But those were available as an extra option at no extra cost. It was the way that Porsche could differentiate the real car aficionados from those who are just pretending. In the same purist way, the Boxster Spyder was available only with a 6-speed manual transmission.

The total weight of the vehicle was 1315 kg (2899 lbs). The low weight combined with the 375 hp of the natural aspirated 3.8-liter engine flat-six led to serious performances. The 420 Nm (310 lb-ft) torque helped the car achieve a 0 to 100 kph (0-62 mph) sprint time in 4.5 seconds. The top speed was limited to 290 kph (180 mph).
