2022 Porsche 718 Boxster GTS 4.0 First Drive: Naturally Aspirated, Naturally Gifted

But not today. Not in my book because I’ve recently sampled what could very well be the. Perfect. Sports. Car. The GTS 4.0 blessedly gets a traditional power folding soft top, and also the one thing – the veritable beating heart – that is at the centre of the other two: a naturally-aspirated, flat-6 “boxer” engine. In an era where every other Porsche save the Taycan EV and 911 GT3 is turbocharged, the GTS 4.0 stands as a fantastic look at what made Porsches so sought-after before the turbo wave broke: the smooth, progressive and altogether unique power delivery of a flat NA motor.
