I have driven manual transmission cars as my primary vehicle for over 30 years. Of all sports cars I've owned, my Boxster gives me the most difficulty when starting from standstill. Occasionally, I will still stall the engine.

When downshifting into first, I would not say the transition is butter smooth. I do need to apply a bit more pressure than when I downshift into other gears. That said, I would not say that I need to force the transmission into first gear.
