I've spec'ed my last 3 P-cars with sports plus seats. They are very comfortable.I don't want or need 14 or 18 ways with all the motors. More is not always better. Only drawback is if you are going to frequently share the car with your wife, you won't have memory settings. But the manual fore and aft is quick. If you are overweight and/or have a bad back, the 14/18's may be needed.
I have spec-ed the dual zone climate control twice, but with the Boxster I skipped it. What I don't like about the dual zone is it always wants to blast the fan to get it to temp, even after going thru the menu to change it to the gentlest setting. But it is convenient to have a set temperature, I may end up missing it. These are small cars, and if you are mostly driving alone the dual zone is irrelevant.
Carmine Red and manual transmission, that is a great combination! I wouldn't let the seats and climate control stop you. Unless you want to wait a few months and order exactly what you want (IMHO always the best option).
