The Porsche Boxster Spyder is an open-top, mid-engined sports car. Due to its weight of only 2.800 lbs, it's the lightest current Porsche on the market. Luxury equipment such as air conditioning and a radio, are not included in standard equipment, but can be ordered.
A lowered suspension, the PDK clutch and optional ceramic brakes help enforce the car to outperform many other sports cars with more horsepower. In Willow Springs the Boxster Spyder ran a faster lap than the Chevrolet Corvette C6 Grand Sport and Porsche 997 Carrera.
Design-wise the Boxster Spyder looks quite alike to the Porsche 550 Spyder. While the name Spyder is a reference to the 550, the car also has a similar shape.

The Boxster Spyder is a great car for both beginners and experienced racers for any race or pursuit event. It doesn't take corners slowly like the Dodge Charger SRT-8 and accelerates faster than the Mazda RX-8. Infact, this car is possibly the best performing car in the Sports class, along with the BMW Z4 sDrive35is and WRX STI.
