2022 Porsche Boxster 25 Years

Last year we saw the surprise unveiling of the Porsche Boxster 25 Years which was pretty self-explanatory in terms of what it was all about. It was a 718 Boxster with some special touches to celebrate the original Boxster that debuted in 1997 and most importantly, drive more hype for the brand. Just 1,250 examples were produced and thankfully used the 4.0-liter from the 718 GTS. Just three colors, GT Silver Metallic, Jet Black, or Carrara White, and standard gold wheels. Inside, Bordeaux Red or black leather. The rest of the options were up to you but most were equipped with a handful of nice stuff that pushed the sticker price well over $100,000. I know it sounds crazy to spend that kind of money on a Boxster, but think of this more as a GTS that is individually numbered and has a bunch of equipment only offered on 1,250 cars. Doesn’t seem so crazy anymore.

This example is one of the GT Silver Metallic cars with a Bordeaux Red top and matching interior that I favor given it is closest to the actual concept car. Even better? This is a 6-speed example.

2022 Porsche Boxster 25 Years

It is hard to believe that the original Porsche Boxster is turning 25 years old in 2022. When the concept was pitched back in the mid-90s, lots of people thought it was going to be a modern 550 Spyder, but in reality it was more like a 914. Performance was extremely lacking and the styling that was shown during the concept ending up getting beaten to death by the engineers and accountants when it was all said and done. Now 25 years later, the Boxster is a serious performance car with the GTS 4.0 and the 718 Spyder hatched by the GT department. Of course, Porsche never being one to pass up a special edition, they launched the Boxster 25 Years. Yeah, that is the name.

Just 1,250 will be made in either GT Silver Metallic to mimic the original concept, as well as Jet Black and Carrara White. All have the gold wheels and gold accents, and the interior can either be black leather or the Bordeaux Red. From there, go nuts with your typical 718 options – although the carbon buckets aren’t offered. For the powerplant, they went with the 4.0 from the GTS, not the 4.0 from the GT4/Spyder. Still, that is absolutely nothing to complain about with 394 horsepower and 309 lb-ft of torque, along with a 0 to 60 mph time in 4.1 seconds with the PDK gearbox. That is really fast. Starting price is just over $100,000, which is just $2,000 more than the 718 Spyder if you can believe that. This example up for sale in North Carolina with just 36 miles? We might have a new leader in the clubhouse for mark-up.
