Really the one thing I noticed is that the stick is pretty hard to move, especially into 2nd gear, before the oil is warm. Its kind of weird driving such a nice car in such cold temperatures. Everything that makes the Boxster great, such as the steering feel, is all there--and you know exactly how much grip you have at all times.

I DO wish the car had a true LSD, though. I'd take PSM (which I cheaped out on and didn't get), but LSD would be perfect for pulling out of the corners and the occasional imperfect snow-shoveled driveway.

I miss the feel and massive grip of summer tires and 17" wheels. Though the 16" are very plush and smooth, nice in another sort of way.
