Boxx, if you want the lightest Boxster and prefer "slow car fast" a base Boxster is the route to go. Lightest car are going to be the 97 to 99s.

From what I've gathered, factory weight figures are:

Manual 2.5 = 2822lbs
Manual 3.2 = 2911lbs

Boxxster, you got the name I tried to get!

OK, about 100lbs.
Now that's 2.5 and since I'm looking at 2003-04 it's actually between 2.7 and 3.2
It's still probably about 100lbs.

I think that could be felt a very little, while the horsepower difference
between Base and S would be more than a little.
