re: still quite turbulent inside

wow!
I guess wind is just something I expect (and enjoy) in a convertible. I also cover my hair.

Having driven/ridden in convertibles by Mercedes, Ford, Toyota, Ferrari, BMW, Dodge, Fiat, Triumph, Mazda, Chevrolet, Pontiac, Jeep, Volkswagen, Jaguar, Austin & Jensen Healy, MG, and Porsche - The Boxster is the one of the best convertibles at wind management and the windscreens help. I get my beard flying sideways in most convertibles.

Pilot makes a good point about the windscreens and temperature control. With the windscreens I choose top down on country roads between about 30(-1) and 113(45) - without the windsreens, my comfort level is about 45-95(7-35).

JohnnyBGood also makes a good point - unless you have an extra short torso for your height, you should probably have the seat all the way to the floor and most of the way back. At 180cm, I adjust the seat 2 notches from the back.

Good luck enjoying your Boxster however you do it.
