Question Differences between the Boxster and Boxster S?

Hey guys,

Besides the increased horsepower and slight difference in the front valance, are their really any other noticeable differences between the boxster and boxster S cosmetically inside and out?

Thanks as always

S has the 6-speed tranny of the 996, and the 996 brakes. S reportedly has a slightly stiffer suspension. It also has some aluminum interior bits (door pulls and so forth), and "titanium trim" (scarcely noticeable) around the windshield.

I heard from the sales monkey this weekend that the S also comes standard w/ the alarm system.
