In today’s PorscheCooled Podcast Michael presents episode 37 of owner stories with Ben from Sheffield in the UK. Ben has owned a few Porsches over the years. Like a lot of owners he tried leaving Porsche a few times (usually to buy an M3) but always came back. Why? Well Ben loves the iconic features of Porsche especially the sound. From that first 911 Turbo with the signature Whale Tail he spotted daily on his way to school Ben knew he wanted one.
Fast forward quite a few years and Ben made that dream come true. His first Porsche was a 986 Boxster, then a while later another Boxster but this time a 987 Boxster S, updated from his first car with more power and sound. Ben said he is always looking for the next thing. Well with a E92 BMW M3 coming next due to practicality it wasn’t long before Ben was back in a Porsche. His 911 itch was scratched with a well option 997.2 Carrera 4S. So, what is Ben driving today, well he always wanted another Boxster and was always on the look-out for the pinnacle of the range – the Boxster Spyder. This may well be the best Porsche Ben has ever had.
