With that said the Boxster does have “stiffer” and “longer” clutch pedal compared to other cars, especially front mounted engine with cable activated clutch.
Your car has only 45K miles, but the components are over 22 years old, so it could be it is time to replace the clutch disk and pressure plate.
I suggest you try to get with your local Porsche club, and ask one of the guys to let you drive their car for comparison.
How would age affect a clutch disk and pressure plate???
I have never in 50+ years of wrenching on cars ever heard of changing out a clutch disc and pressure plate based on age of said components.
