No sense keeping something you don't drive unless...it's collectible (not yet) , you have lots room (you don't) , or you need a back-up car (you have the Volkswagon). I had the same problem, and sold off my Infiniti as it was just rotting parked in the sun as there was no more garage room, and I don't really need that many cars.
I'd sell the car, when you tire of the Volkswagon, you can always buy another Boxster, probably newer.
About the collectible part, it is the 2004 SE 550. #0296/1953

My Main mode of transportation. I've put on 6k since I bought the end of Sept 2012, so that puts me on the 12k/year schedule. I have definitely noticed a range of attitudes towards Porsche.
I love top down driving but at a stop light I feel way over exposed

- don't dare look in rear view to make sure the hair is straight
