Summer cars
The 2017 Porsche 718 Boxster's new turbo flat four-cylinder engine comes with a peerless pedigree in Porsche handling and transmissions.
Styled after the dune buggies of the '60s with flared fenders, a big spoiler and black cladding, Dune is much more Beetle than Buggy, so it's best suited for concrete, but still a bucket of fun.
The classic American summer road trip family vehicle is the wagon. The Outback prefers black cladding to wood panelling and for good reason – it enables the AWD best-seller to hit the trail and ford the creek.
