I bought my 1st (of 3) Boxster s' after driving my bothers base boxster.  The 2.7 felt (at least to me) very anemic - like it wanted to let loose, but just couldn't.  The S is just a different animal.
For the record, my bothers 2.7 has 98k, the original ims, and hasn't given him any  issues.  My 2000 S has 2 engine failures due to ims (1st covered by porsche, second, hoping to get some love from settlement).  Hope that helps.
