About the Boxster

The 987 Boxster (2004-2012) significantly improved upon the 986 with a new interior shared with the 997 911, sharper styling, and improved dynamics. The 2.7-litre engine produced 245hp initially, with the 987.2 facelift (2009) bringing direct injection and improved power. The 987 addressed many criticisms of the 986 and delivered a more premium sports car experience. IMS concerns remained for 987.1 cars (2004-2008) but were largely resolved in the 987.2.

Known Issues to Watch For

Engine: 987.1 (2004-2008) retains IMS bearing concerns (single-row type). 987.2 (2009+) has improved bearing and direct injection - much lower risk. Bore scoring still possible on both. Check for smoke on startup. RMS leaks. Transmission: Generally robust. Tiptronic improved but PDK not available on Boxster until 987.2. Roof: Check operation, seals, rear window. Suspension: PASM shocks can fail (expensive). General: 987.2 significantly preferred for reliability.

Desirable Options

987.2 model (2009+), PASM, Sport Chrono, 18-inch wheels, Full leather, Heated seats, BOSE audio, IMS done if 987.1
