Coming from a 914, anything might feel ok!
My first test drive in a Boxster was a really nice, low mile '99 back in 2004. My previous cars had been a Miata, a '99 Z3. I loved the Boxster except the shifting felt so sloppy and vague I thought that there was something wrong. It stuck with me and I later found, through reading and driving other Boxsters, that my experience was the norm.
When I finally bought my car in 2008, I enjoyed everything about the car and got use to the shifter. A few years ago, my boys bought me a short shifter for Christmas . After install, I was amazed at the difference and how much 'newer' my car felt.
Heck of an upgrade!
