If you think the base would drive better if it had the 6 speed, how do you explain this comment from Excellence magazine from a few years ago comparing the 2.7L vs. S:
"And with the base car's slightly longer gear spacing, you're less likely to shift up to third while driving from light to light - which makes it a bit easier to drive around town. So in an urban environment, the base car may be a better pick than the Boxster S, ..."

Didn't I already mention that the overall 2nd gear ratio between the S and Base are the same? I think I did. 7.56 vs 7.54. So why would Excellence make that comment about the S needing to upshift while the Base doesn't? Please explain this one to me.
Guess your one magazine that loves the Base over the S was just proven WRONG. Bwahahaha.
Long live the S!
