I'm told, and have read, that the 2.7s are less problematic

Well, that's half the job done - took delivery of Ray's Boxster 2.7 manual and love it, feels lighter than the Cayman overall but a touch more nimble at the same time. It doesn't have quite the grunt of the Cayman but it ain't far off!! Now to sell the Cayman - a truly brilliant car that, with any luck, I'll have as well for a while. Win / win.

Oh ...... now here's a thought. Does anybody know how big a task it is to switch 2 sets of heated seats over? The Boxster has sports seats which I quite like but the missus doesn't and for me it's not really an issue - I'm happy with either. So I got to thinking that if I swapped them over (the Cayman has standard seats) would it make the Cayman more attractive to a buyer if it had sports seats?

Any thoughts? Cheers

I prefer the sports seats and would leave them in the Boxster.

Most passengers also like the better support for the shoulders.
