I chose Boxster after driving an SLK 230 (among several others - Audi TT, Z, RX8). I understand the 280 is a better car, so can't speak to it. I agree completely that the Boxster is a driver's car. Great handling, best brakes on the planet.
I would be a little leery of "renegotiating the lease or buying", etc down the line, if this is the case. I would suggest negotiating all the terms (lease or purchase) now while your leverage is good. Harder to negotiate when the car's in your driveway.
Good luck either way!
