I find the cabin quieter (and warmer/cooler, depending upon the climate control settings) with the windows fully back up. That said, the difference is not huge and I often forget to put them up. I seem to drive with the windows either fully up or down and nothing in between if I'm paying attention.

If you have any photos from your Boxster cruise around Scotland, post 'em for us to see! Must have been fun cruising along the Lochs and Firths in a Boxster...
