I have the 2.5 and I'm glad I didn't wait for the S. Bought my 2.5 last month and had I waited and searched for a S I wouldn't have a Boxster at all, would have probably taken another year or two to find a good one at a decent price.
The 2.5 is VERY fast. I know i know, "only 200hp", yeah well german horses must be worth about 1.5 american horses because these are very powerful horses!
I killed a Evo VIII. 276hp, 4wd, 3,000 lbs. Should have killed me but 0-80 it was all me, he fell to my back bumper and never moved from there. Bad shifting? Who knows.
Point is the 2.5/2.7 is more than enough and if someone's thinking "Gee, should wait for the S?" DON'T. Get the base, you'll be very happy.
