From my observation, the Boxster paint seems to be much softer than other car manufacturers (I could be waay off base on this). After I waxed my car, a cat jumped on it and the super slippery surface made the cat extend it's claws and it left several deep scratches on the rear trunk lid. This also happened to my in-law's Boxster and the same cats have climbed onto my newly waxed VW and Ford and haven't left scratches like it.

I managed to get some out with swirl mark remover but I'll take it to a professional body shop in the spring for the scratch and for some paintless ding repair.

Ironically, if I didn't wax the car, the cat probably would have just left some paw prints.
