A retractable hardtop would probably weight at least 2-3 times a regular hardtop (about 55lbs) with all of the necessary motors and things. I also think having an extra 150+lbs above the engine would comprise handling. Retractable hardtops are nice, but the Boxster is a sports car, not a luxury car. If you want a retractable hardtop I am sure Porsche would love to upsell you to a 911 Targa.
