I have an 00 986S now... I'm 6' tall and fit the car very nicely, I have plenty of headroom- I could fit with my helmet under the top up no problem. I think the boxster is tight on people who are 6'+ and heavy- I'm a skinny MFer, and I love the seating position. I have the seat a few clicks forward even.

The 6 speed's shifting really is great compared to older 911's. The balance and handling is as expected. And as milt stated, the minor maintenance stuff can be done easily by the mechanically inclined.

I was always on the fence with the 986/996 cars. After spending time with one as a daily drive now though, I'm sold. I even recommended my mother pick up a tiptronic 986 as her next car as a daily driver.
