In my case over here in Finland where the circuits are smaller the 5 speed box gives me the following advantages (in my 2001 Boxster S).
.- It is lighter than the 6 speed
.- It has a better ratio (I need acceleration rather than top speed) - We have only one track where I have managed to need 5th and even then only if I manage to carry enough speed in the exit in the corner before the straight...
.- It is cheaper to replace
