2000 Boxster Dying while driving...

I have a 2000 Boxster with ~67k miles. A few months ago I was stopping at a red light and the engine just died out. Completely shut off. It took me 10 minutes to get it started again. It wouldn't start up right away, I had to push the car to the side of the road, wait 10 minutes, and then it would start up.

Lately it's been happening to me every time I drove it. I live in Florida where the heat is pretty high. I noticed in the morning it would drive ok but in the afternoon/evening it would die about 10 minutes after starting up and driving away.

I'm at my witts end on what this could be. My local dealership said they don't know whats wrong and can't reproduce it.

I have an automatic yet it feels like it stalls out when braking up to a light or sitting idle at the light.

Has anyone else ever experienced this? I've checked the oil, I've checked the coolant, I've checked everything a normal car owner could check yet the problem is getting more frequent.
