10. Porsche Boxster (986/987)
The Porsche Boxster (986/987 generations) offers the allure of a genuine Porsche sports car at a price point that’s often less than a new minivan.
Early Boxsters (1997-2012) can be found on the used market for $12,000 to $20,000, according to Edmunds.
While maintenance and parts costs can be higher than average, the driving experience—sharp, mid-engine balance and Porsche pedigree—more than compensate.
For those who dream of owning a Porsche, the Boxster represents one of the most accessible and rewarding entry points in the sports car world.
