The Boxster 25 Years is, on the surface, a highly optioned up 4.0 GTS model with a lot of additional options. But it's actually more than that. With details that tastefully throw back to the original Boxster concept car, including. rose gold accents, cool wheels, and a stunning red leather interior, it reminds us of something important: these are luxury cars. And although the glory goes to the GT cars with their stripped out interiors, spending a week with the 25th Anniversary car is as comfortable as any German GT can be, while not giving up at all what it means to be a mid-engined, analog, engaging sports car.

    Boxter to 60 in less than 4 seconds and a high 11 quarter... we are truly in good times for power.
  • @mpikers
    I drove my first Porsche a few months ago at the Porsche race school in Alabama. The first drill we did was in a Boxter which I've always kind of "poopooed" as a poor man's Porsche. I have never been so wrong about something in my entire life.
  • @Motormouth2416
    As the owner of a 993 on TE-37s, I appreciate the sentiment about them!
  • @dragospahontu
    The wheels and interior color really make it stand out.
  • @SimplyCarThings
    You guys were in Temecula?! No way lol, so cool to see a Two Take video in my home town, De Luz is a little gem 😁
  • @RadDadisRad
    I’m anxiously awaiting for the Cayman GT4 RS to be reviewed.
  • @Nord_Mann
    Boxster/Cayman is the right size Porsche👌🏻 992 is just a grand tourer now.
  • @rossgraham3073
    I have to say that Matt is the most gentlemanly youtuber. I find that he is always willing to engage with fans of the channel and treats all with respect even when they disagree with his views. I really enjoy these real world drive reviews and get a lot out of them! I have a Boxster 25 on order so this one was particularly interesting!
  • @jacebeleren429
    I have a gts4.0 and I am coming from a 17 M2. LOVE THE GTS4.0. One of the most versatile daily cars. 100% satisfied.
  • @BrendanEvan
    This looks like an excellent way to spend a Saturday morning
  • @dbworld4k
    Absolutely love this car. The wheels are a total throwback to the Hamann HM5s from the 90s - love 'em!
  • @odinikita4821
    Boxster, cayman and F type in my opinion are the best "affordable " sports cars you can buy.
  • Thanks for the review. Keep filming more videos together. Definitely entertaining and informative. Also appreciate the contrasting views. Been lurking and watching so many of your Porsche videos before pulling the trigger on the right car for me. Your review helped me seal the deal. Deliberated between 718 Spyder or GTS 4.0. Got lucky and got my hands on a brand new 25th Anniversary Edition (GT Silver with black interior) in MT which makes it even more rare. As a owner of a dedicated track car and a M car, the Boxster 25 is the “jam” 😜. Thanks for keeping us entertained and informed. Great job on the channel content as always.
  • @paulcooper903
    Look forward to your gt4rs review in the next few months. P.S. great review as always.
  • I have a Boxster 25 Edition coming in UK in 2 weeks time and now very excited now that I have seen your review of the car.
  • @CM-cw8fe
    Boxster is the only convertible I would even think about buying, this one is perfect, great video too.
