There are correct and incorrect coolants for the boxster. There is no color standard in the industry, so you have no way of knowing what's actually in there.

The wrong stuff will actually gel and really mess up the system and possibly the engine.

Best thing to do is siphon off what you can (no sense in cycling it through the system), then drain, flush (w/ distilled water) and then fill and bleed with the proper fluid.
