Perhaps the best beginner Porsche out there, the 924 is openly laughed at by many purists, which is partly why prices are unbelievably low. Historically, these cars are important as they introduced a front-engine, rear-wheel-drive layout with liquid cooling to the Porsche lineup by leaning heavily on Audi. Superb aerodynamics and a lively road dynamic make these rewarding to own and a great way to get your feet wet.

Porsche 911 GT3 (997.1)

Shocked to see a GT3 on this list? While it seems everyone just gushes over these cars, and for good reason as they’re true track weapons, the GT3 997.2 commands a much higher price on the market than the Porsche 911 GT3 997.1. There’s a difference of 20-horsepower between the two generations and performance overall isn’t too far off, so if you have the cash to spend on such a thing, the Porsche 911 GT3 997.1 is a good buy which likely will appreciate significantly over time.

Snobs don’t like the first-generation Porsche Boxsters for all kinds of reasons they’ll gladly list off, and the result is you can pick one up for less than you probably think. The car credited with pulling Porsche away from the brink of financial ruin is actually quite rewarding to drive, thanks to excellent handling which far exceeds what you get with a 911 and spirited acceleration. Prices are on the rise, but you can still get a clean Porsche 986 for a good deal if you hunt.
