The Porsche Boxster 987.2 was built from 2009 to 2012.
The Boxster, the most traded version: The 987.2 Boxster represents Porsche's refinement of their mid-engine roadster formula, introducing the direct-injection 2.9-liter flat-six that solved the intermediate shaft bearing issues plaguing earlier models. With 255 horsepower and that distinctive Porsche growl, this generation offers the purest open-air driving experience in the lineup. The 987.2's significance extends beyond reliability improvements—it marked the final naturally aspirated base Boxster before turbocharging arrived. Clean examples with manual transmissions are increasingly sought after by collectors who appreciate the analog driving experience and bulletproof mechanics. The chassis balance remains exceptional, with communicative steering and predictable handling that makes every canyon run memorable. While overshadowed by the S and Spyder variants, savvy collectors recognize the base model's sweet spot of performance, reliability, and relative affordability in today's inflated Porsche market.
