I find that the pedals on the Boxster are set up perfectly in order to allow you to pivot the ball of your right foot side-to-side, rather than heel-and-toe between the brake pedal and the accelerator pedal (although I suppose that having somewhat wide feet helps!). I still double-clutch out of habit, although in a car with good synchronizers it isn't really necessary - all you are trying to do is equalize the revs so that upon release of the clutch in the new lower gear, additional strain is not put on the drivetrain and the balance of the car is not upset by engine braking. Even if you aren't pushing the car to a point where it is strictly necessary, smoother is better in driving any car (and the blip of the throttle on downshifts just sounds cool)!
