I test drove today a 2013 6-speed manual transmission Boxster S. In my mind, I compared the feel of the shifter and clutch pedal of this Boxster to the older Boxster S (first series) and more recent Cayman S that I've owned. The shifter and clutch pedal in the 2013 model appeared to be much taller/higher than the older vehicles, seeming to make both much more awkward to use. Has anyone had a similar experience? It's enough to bias me away from the "stick" and towards the PDK if I decide to buy another Boxster/Cayman.
