I went and drove a 2003 S. very nice car, didn't have power seats so I didn't fit well. I am 6'1" 180lbs.
I then drove a 2005 base. First time in a 987. What a nice car. Here are my opinions
2003 S is like going out for Filet's at Outback.
2005 base is like going for Filet's at Flemming's, It's more expensive but so much more enjoyable.
I imagine a 2005 S is like Filet's at Flemming's with a Supermodel
