2009 porsche boxster

The venerable 911 is all the evidence one needs to see that Porsche doesn't mess much with a good thing and it appears that the Zuffenhausen-based automaker is sticking with that philosophy with its revamped 2009 Boxster. Still, small improvements have been made for more power, better driveability, and an updated appearance.
An enlarged 2.9L engine produces 255 hp in the base-model Boxster, while a revised direct-injection 3.4L flat-six in the Boxster S churns out 310 hp. A five-speed manual gearbox is still standard equipment on the Boxster (a six-speed manual is fitted on the Boxster S), but for the first time Porsche is offering a seven-speed dual-clutch PDK gearbox as an option. Not only are acceleration and shift speed improved with the dual-clutch transmission, but Porsche claims a 10-15% increase in fuel efficiency to boot.
Stylewise, the front headlamps have been reshaped into near copies of the units found on the Carrera GT supercar, and now integrate the turn signals. The LED taillights have also been revised, the wheels have been widened, and a Lights Package is now available. Inside, a new radio, Porsche Communication System, and enlarged navigation screen all distinguish the 2009 Boxster from its older siblings.
