The 981 Boxster (2012-2016) was Porsche's third-generation mid-engined roadster, built on a new lightweight aluminium-steel platform with a longer wheelbase and electric power steering. Flat-six power came from 2.7L and 3.4L units, with a 6-speed manual or 7-speed PDK. It is widely regarded as the sharpest-handling Boxster before the shift to turbocharged four-cylinders.
The 981 is the last naturally aspirated Boxster, with a mid-engine balance and flat-six soundtrack that define the nameplate. The GTS, Spyder and GTS-derived variants carry genuine motorsport-inspired tuning, giving the model real enthusiast credibility.
