Yup six speeds are pricier - plus I don't know if this transmission is a "stock" Boxster S six speed or was modified in any way when the original owner bad it rebuilt in 2013. Most say to replace with a Cayman S six speed but the gearing is slightly different and those are about $4-5k. I'm waiting to assess the damage.
