Four months ago I would have said no, the Boxster clutch is a little too heavy and would be hard to learn on. Then I got a new clutch/flywheel, and it's now almost as light as my old Miata.
Having said that, I'd prefer to teach someone on an old Honda or Toyota with a small 4 cyl and a light clutch.
Alternate idea for you Jake: Do you have an arcade/Dave & Busters near you that has a Redline GT or some kind of Nascar game/simulator? In full manual mode, with force feedback, they can be pretty frustrating (i.e. realistic) to get off the line without stalling. I'd try a few date nights before you let her into a real car....it will cost you $50 instead of a new clutch/flywheel.
