Porsche Boxster

Price: From R565 000

Petrol heads will tell you that the only Porsche to own is the iconic 911. What a load of rubbish. If you cannot afford a 911 (and, let’s face it, most of us cannot), the Boxster is a delightful compromise. It handles extremely well, it has the badge that we all want, it’s easy on the eyes, impeccably finished and, for a Porsche, easy on the pocket. We recommend the Boxster S PDK; it scampers to 100 km/h in just 5,3 seconds and it’s about R90 000 cheaper than the range-topping Spyder.
