The Boxster S has always been the roadster's stronger suit: larger displacement or more boost, bigger brakes, and a chassis that shrugs at the extra output. These years cover the 3.4-liter 987.2 and 981 sixes and the 350 hp turbocharged 2.5-liter 718 that followed in 2017. It is the variant that turns the Boxster from an agreeable convertible into a genuine sports car purchase.
