DaveGordon:

I was thinking of the shifter action mostly - afaik the ratios are the same in all manual Boxsters/Caymans. I had a short-shift option in my 987.2 but iirc this wasn't offered as an option on 981. I just temember the shift action being superb on the GT4 and wondered if it was the same on the Spyder.

Congrats to you new Spyder owners anyway - can't help feeling a bit jealous kiss

Short-shifter in my 987.1 S felt and sounded more mechanical compared to the 981 Spyder, but was a bit notchy at cold temps, which is not so anymore in the 981 Spyder (and certainly in the GT4 also - afaik it's the same gearbox as in the Spyder).
