Here's an email on this top when I inquired about it:
We can ship the hardtop kit to the USA. Please see below for costs. These
prices are in Pounds Sterling and to convert to US Dollars you need to
multiply approximately by 2.
In the UK we normally perform the installation and painting for our
customers and this is show separately. You can buy the hardtop in kit form
and have it installed and painted in the US.
We only offer the version with side glass as this gives the car a better
appearance. The inside surface looks like stitched leather but is in fact a
special surface incorporated in the manufacturing. We offer our customer the
glass fibre version as the weight difference for kevlar is not significant.
A kevlar version will cost around 30% more.
Boxster hardtop kit including
rear glass, side glasses, all
rubber seals, catches, screen
wiring and fixings. 986 model £2498.00
Painting, installing rear and
side glass, fitting rubbers,
wiring and other hardware.
Setting side clamp positions. £ 480.00
Shipping to USA £390.00

I originally wanted a 996, but now I would go for the Cayman S. They had an '06 when I picked up mt Boxster and I couldn't stay away from it while waiting on mine. There's just something about the rear/side angle. Also, the 996 is everywhere around Charlotte but I have only seen one Cayman. It will still take another 2-3 years of depreciation before they are in my budget.
I would go with the Stugart or Zeintec top in a minute if there prices were about half.
