I think one BIG factor is that the land mine problems such as the IMS now have solutions.

Also I think (it could just be me) the Boxster stereotype is wearing off now that there is more of mid-engine offering.

Or...maybe 911 owners are tired of Boxsters beating them at the track and autoX and just decided to join them...hahaha

I would also suggest that when Porsche goes all in on flat fours (yech), with ever increasing silly complexity (ala' 981"start-stop" and "coast mode"), light simple flat SIX models like our 986's will become more desirable.
