What it's like

Driving the Porsche 718 Boxster here

The drop-top Cayman — flawless mid-engined balance and steering feel with the sky overhead. One of the great driver's convertibles, at any price.

In Malaysian terms: it seats 2, it has 2 doors, and the gearbox is 7-speed pdk, so there is no clutch pedal to think about while you are also adapting to driving on the left. It runs on RON97, the yellow pump, which is available everywhere and costs a fraction of what you pay at home. Every rental leaves us with a full tank and a loaded Touch 'n Go card in the holder.

It handles Malaysian roads without drama: enough ride height for the speed bumps, enough boot for real luggage, and composed on a wet afternoon.

Power: 300 bhp
0–100 km/h: 4.9s

Where to take it

Best drives for the Porsche 718 Boxster

These are the routes we'd point you at with this car specifically, and why.

Take the roof off. The expressway down is quick and dull, but the coastal road back through Port Dickson is flat, open, low-speed and runs beside the Straits of Melaka for forty-odd kilometres. A convertible turns the boring half into the point of the trip.
