I drove a 2009 Cayman S before picking up my BRZ and absolutely hated the manual gearbox. It's like a freaking ocean between gears. The salesman (it was at a Porsche dealer) said he recommends anyone that gets one of those years to get the short shift kit as it's way way better.

The chassis and power on the car were great. One thing to keep in mind is that a Boxter is infinitely less practical than your current GTI and a whole lot less practical than the BRZ. I was coming from an s2000 as my only car and am really happy to have something with a bit more room in it.
