You see them whizzing down the highway in the middle of the summer and you wonder how great it would be to have one. You think yourself that you would drive around the country side with the top down or is sunroof retracted and just enjoy the drive. Every drive would be special and you don’t necessarily need a destination to enjoy the drive.

After living with a Porsche Boxster S for an entire summer I learned the truth behind owning high performance sports car. While some people may not feel the Porsche Boxster S is a true high performance sports car it’s pretty darn good.

Driving a Porsche is like driving no other car on the road from the way it handles to the way it sits in the road to the feel of the steering wheel to the feel of the brake pedals it is truly a driver’s car. I absolutely love driving the Porsche. I remember days driving around with the top down country roads with long slow curves going past the lakes the sun shining and whether being absolutely perfect. Those are fantastic drives.

The portion is a little short on creature comforts that that is the way it is designed and that is why you buy it. People say that the radio is the biggest downfall on the entire car. But I wonder how you even here the radio with the top down? And white even need a radio when you have the engine and the exhaust?

The biggest thing I found was that you run out of road before you run out of revs. The car just simply has too much power for the street and with the strictness of the law these days than just no taking chances. I never got a chance to fully drive this car because it never took it on track. I would love the opportunity to drive his car in a a spirited manner on a racetrack.

When you driving your own car on a racetrack you have no insurance and that was the biggest thing that kept me away from driving this car on the track and also kept me away from find a true limits of the car.

I had an absolutely great time driving the Porsche and I look forward to owning one again.
