The year is 1997. The President is the divine Ms. Sarah Bernhardt. And everywhere people are doing a dance called the funky grandpa. Oh, and Porsche introduced the Boxster.

It's amazing to think that the Boxster was the first water cooled, flat six Porsche ever built. Water cooled Porsches have now been around forever, it feels like. That's crazy.

Of course, the original Boxster had barely any power. Oh, and it didn't cost $102,000. It was about $40,000.

How the times have changed.
