I agree it depends on what your driving habits are and what you expect. I bought my 01S almost five years ago, and intentionally got the S for two reasons: reviews around that era all touted the 6sp S over the 5sp base for "stride" at highway speeds, and the more likelihood of having cruise control on the S (which mine has). For many, they may consider that heresy for a Boxster, but it keeps me from throttling too high, and frankly I hate driving steady routes more than half a mile without it.
Road tripping with my daughter, who didn't have cc on her car, a few years ago, it was very annoying to me as a passenger to have her NOT use the cc and have speeds constantly fluctuating. As a driver around others on the highway who don't use cc, it is exasperating how they slow down when you can't pass and speed up to keep you from passing.
Going by my experience, I would only consider the base model with a 6sp. But that's me.
