Aside from the other post I've just listed, could anyone tell me the basic differences between a Boxster and a Boxster S (986 Model).

I'm aware of the obvious engine size and power difference but are there others that i'm clearly oblivious. (You can just tell i'm new to this can't you). Thanks guys.
 
S has ventilated and cross drilled discs (Boxster only has ventilated) Red Calipers 6 Speed Gearbox (manual) Stiffer Anti-Roll bars and higher spring rates 1" larger wheels (as standard - but these are often specced by the buyer of a Boxster anyway) Titanium coloured windscreen trim "Boxster S" in Titanium colour on Bootlid Titanium coloured Radiator Inlets 3rd Radiator inlet at front (became fake on 987's - unless the 987 was a Tiptronic) Twin Exhaust Tips Leather Interior as standard (Seats were Alcantara on the Boxster) White(ish!) Gauges in the instruments Climate Control as standard "Boxster S" logo at base of centre console
