I will say that the Recaro Profi XL is a great seat for us "big boys", I had a friend ride as a passenger at Road Atlanta and he makes me look like an ant, and I am 6'2" - he is probably 6'6" and 300+ lbs or more.
I don't daily drive my Boxster but I think I could live with this seat as a daily driver, I have no trouble on 3-4 hour drives to various tracks. Only when it is longer, like 5+ hours, like to Road Atlanta or Carolina Motorsport Park that it gets a little tiresome, but I think any seat would be tiresome.
The trick for making a race seat workable as a daily driver, in my opinion, is getting the seat belt receptacle to where you can easily reach it, when I first installed my Recaro seats the receptacle was too low and hard to reach when I was in the seat so I bought a seat belt extender and it made all the difference.
