Oh... in cabin.
You would think Porsche would have insulated the cabin so it doesn't sound so "cheesy"
Or
the transmission has a problem.

That's what I thought.
Im aware of TSB's for engines and transmissions for the boxsters and I'm weary of being on the verge of a failure.
Thanx for the reply.

Cars back with its owner now so no recording available but it is clearly the sound of the forks moving around when you engage different gears.
I'm in no hurry to buy so I'll check out other ones.
