Why Buy a 2013 Porsche Boxster Engine from Auto Power Source
Every 2013 Boxster engine we ship is pulled from a low-mileage donor vehicle, cataloged by VIN, and held in our climate-controlled warehouse pending sale. Our ASE-certified technicians compression-test every cylinder and run a leak-down evaluation before any unit is cleared for sale.
The 2013 Boxster comes as a 2.7L flat-six (VIN A) and a 3.4L flat-six Boxster S (VIN B), both rear-wheel-drive mid-engine roadsters — and the 5th-digit VIN code is what separates the two, so VIN-matching is critical. Text your VIN and we will confirm the exact match before you order.
Your 2013 Boxster Engine Options: Compared
Most 2013 Boxster owners face four real choices when their engine fails:
| Option | Cost | Reliability | Warranty | Fitment Match |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Used OEM (this collection) | $$$ Best Value | High | Up to 3 years | VIN-matched |
| New OEM (dealer) | $$$$$ 2-4× more | High | Manufacturer | Exact |
| Aftermarket / Reman | $$$$ | Varies | 6-12 mo | May adapt |
| Junkyard | $ Cheapest | Unknown | None | DIY |
Tested used OEM hits the sweet spot — same Porsche engineering as new, fraction of the cost.
2013 Boxster Engine Buying Guide
- Confirm the 5th-digit VIN code. The 2013 Boxster 2.7L is VIN A and the Boxster S 3.4L is VIN B — same flat-six layout, different engine.
- Match the displacement to your trim. The base Boxster runs the 2.7L; the Boxster S runs the 3.4L. They are not interchangeable.
- Both are rear-wheel drive. The 981 Boxster is a mid-engine, RWD-only roadster — there is no AWD variant to confuse it with.
- Check the 981 generation fitment. The 2013 Boxster is the 981 chassis; earlier 987 flat-sixes use a different mount and harness.
- Always run the donor VIN if available. We provide it on request for any Boxster engine in inventory to verify mileage and history.
Our ASE-certified technicians verify every one of these points against your VIN before any engine ships.
