A few points of contention:

"Sport Chrono and PASM are driver aids. A person might elect out of those options because they want to improve their driving skills yet still have the fastest model of the Boxster."

Do you mean PSM is a driver aid? The Sport chrono is a gimmick, but the sport BUTTON is not and you can't get it seperately. The Sport button puts PSM in a less motherly mode and remaps the throttle response curve to a more sport and responsive setting. (I really hate the electronic throttle).

PASM allows the car to ride soft when cruising and stiffen up to a more sporty setting when needed.

PSM has been driving me kind of nuts. I'm considering disabling it and driving around, but I'll have to wait until I have time to pay a bit more attention to the car.

"If I wanted a sports car thats super fast I would have purchesed a 911,"

Don't sell yourself that short--the 911 isn't THAT fast really. If you wanted a sports car that was super fast you could have purchased a Corvette Z06.
