I have a 2007 Boxster S, and while I agree with most here that it's quieter than most convertibles ... there are two rattles in mine that make me insane:

1) The wind deflector right behind my right ear. It's just a bad design; if they had secured both sides of the bottom of the deflector with the little "nub" that sticks up, it probably wouldn't rattle at all. However since the nub only secures the bottom of the deflector *in the middle*, it rattles like crazy on one side.

2) The top part of the dash that covers the speedo/tach/other instrumentation - rattles like crazy, particularly now when the weather is cold. That one is even worse; when it's rattling badly I can put my hand on it and press to stop the noise, and even feel the thing moving it's so loose.

The ragtop creaking I can understand and it doesn't bother me, but these two noises described are far from necessary. I'm almost due for my first service so hopefully they'll be able to fix them up (though I'm not looking forward to going without my baby for days!).
