First introduced in 1996, the Boxster was the first Porsche vehicle designed purely as a Roadster from conception. The Boxster took styling cues from legendary earlier Porsche models including the Spyder and Speedster, and was an immediate success at launch.

Porsche Cayman
The Cayman is a coupé based on the second generation of Porsche Boxster, with the same mid-engined layout but presented with revised styling and a 'hard top' roof. It was, like the Boxster, an immediate critical success upon launch winning several major awards.
