I recently purchased a 2001 base Boxster with Tiptronic. I have to admit I have "second pedal" envy but the automatic transmission is a better suit to me and my driving habits, plus the car was too clean to pass up. Occasionally I will pull the shifter to manual and toggle through the gears. It's not quite the same as clutch shifting, but hey...any driving time in a boxster is great and I have had nothing but fun with my car. The Tip may actually be faster off the line once I master the technique. So the question is, How do you intend to use your car?
