    RELIABILITY AND QUALITY RATING:

    Although a great deal of the Boxster's componentry is new, the heart of the beast are those proven flat-six engines, developed now to the point where reliability and durability shouldn't be a concern. And 4Car's own owners' reports indicate no serious problems with the Boxster. The new car is also more rigid than before, and that should mean fewer rattles and creaks over a long life. The interior of the new car feels higher quality, too, with soft touch surfaces and less complicated, more geometric panel joins.
