Considering a base 2014... Input appreciated.
I currently drive a 2002S and the new base Boxster has better performance, at least on paper. The link below will take you to the porsche microsite and my configuration. It is pretty cool I had the full screen 3D version rotating on my monitor all weekend, it looks great.

The car will be a daily driver, same as the current car. 10,000 miles a year, rain, snow, sleet....

Your input is appreciated:

1. 20 inch wheels, does anyone regret getting these over the 19's?
2. Amber orange - I would like to break up the monochromatic interior and the orange inserts look good in pictures, I hope they still look good after 10 years. The pebble gray is too light and the green wouldn't go well with Agate, imo.
3. Not heavily optioned - I am questioning the infotainment pkg.
4. PDK - Got to have it so that my wife is able to drive the car. Tried to teach her to drive a stick in my Z3 and the car wound up hitting the neighbors 's house. My fault not hers , minimal damage to house, none to Z3 due to a well placed shrubbery.
