718 Boxster T Roadster (2020-2025)

Can you afford a 2020-2025 Porsche Boxster 718 Boxster T Roadster?

The 2020-Present Porsche Boxster 718 Boxster T Roadster 982.2 is a driver-focused mid-engine roadster lauded for its exceptional handling, precise steering, and engaging driving dynamics. Often praised for its purity and balance, it's reviewed as a true enthusiast's car, even if its turbocharged four-cylinder engine drew initial criticism for its sound compared to the prior flat-six. It’s well-suited for spirited weekend drives, track days, and those seeking a visceral open-top sports car experience rather than outright power or luxury.

Owning a 2020-Present Porsche 718 Boxster T involves higher operating expenses than a typical car. Maintenance, while not usually plagued by significant reliability concerns, can be more costly due to specialized parts and labor; think premium pricing for routine services and unexpected repairs. Insurance premiums are also notably higher, reflecting the car's performance capabilities, higher value, and the demographic of owners. Fuel efficiency is moderate for a sports car, contributing to ongoing costs. Tire replacement, especially for performance-oriented tires, is another significant recurring expense. Overall, the unique operating costs stem from its luxury sports car status.
