Will a 718 Boxster fit

The practical question behind every dimensions search, and for a 14.3-foot Porsche 718 Boxster it has a straight answer. A single-car garage in the US is typically 20 feet deep and a street parking space about 18, so the 718 Boxster clears the garage by 4.7 ft. We allow a foot of clearance in both — nobody parks to the millimetre.

A longer wheelbase for the same overall length means shorter overhangs — usually more cabin space and a steadier ride. At 2,943 lb the Porsche 718 Boxster is 146 lb lighter than typical for its size, which generally shows up as fuel economy and stopping distance.

One row per generation, not per model year: manufacturers rarely change the body between facelifts, and the Porsche 718 Boxster fits into 1 rows instead of 11. Where a generation offered several body styles, the figures are the base measurements for that generation of the Porsche 718 Boxster.
