Lowering a boxster makes it look much better and handle better under hard cornering, but it's far more expensive than the springs and labor to swap them out.

You really do have to install adjustable control arms to correct the misalignment it creates or watch your rear tires wear out every four or five months with daily use of the car.

I must say though, since I lowered my car an inch all the way around and put on the adjustable coilovers and adjustable control arms, I feel like superman behind the wheel. I can fly around corners twice as fast as before with very little body roll.

... and my car looks great too.
