Porsche Boxster Parts

As the first car from Porsche conceived by designer Raymond Barth to be a roadster from the very beginning, the Boxster plays an important part in the Porsche lineup. The Boxster got its start in 1996, and was motivated by a 2.5-liter flat six-cylinder engine. Its name reflects a merging of the words _boxer_, a nod to the car's horizontally opposed or boxer engine, and _roadster_, a reference to the vehicle's convertible top.

The Porsche Boxster is a relatively new model. The car owes its singular styling to the efforts of former Porsche design chief Harm Lagaay. The car played an important role in the brand's history, as it helped revitalize sales during a period in which the automaker's fortunes were on the decline.

In its first-generation incarnation, the look of the Boxster owed much to the Porsche Spyder and Speedster. There were also some elements that called to mind the Porsche 550 Spyder. Manufacture costs were decreased via parts sharing, a first for Porsche. With the help of Toyota, the brand successfully implemented this practice across its model line. The 986 Boxster bore the same hood, fenders and headlights as its sibling, the 996.
