I've had a handful of boxsters and this current one is a tiptronic. For everyday driving the Tip is king and surprisingly sporty. For pure weekend blasts I would pick the 5 or 6 speed. I've also had a handful of BMWs the BMW would make a better week end, week day car and I truly believe the BMW is a sporty drivers car. The BMW 6 cylinder is very reliable but not so sure about the SMGs, Out of the SMG cars, I like the ones in the 330i 335i and the 550i. I'm driving a M5 today with a SMG and although the car is powerful I'm not liking the way the SMG feels in daily driving compared to the 330i with SMG.
