From a 2.5 Boxster owner's side of the conversation (which would be me), I'd tell you to save more money and get an S, ignoring all the non-S models you come across. The power difference is huge and you'll never regret buying an S, but you may well regret buying a 2.5 or a 2.7 when SUV's overtake you and in an S you would have blown them away.
Suv's overtake you? On the highway? I'd go for the most power too but I find my 2.5 to be quite capable and much faster than you can drive legally. Occasionally I'll really get into it and it's easy to cruise with great handling in triple digits, plenty good enough to spank any SUV, except maybe a Cayenne.
