Mine spends almost the entire frigid barren polar Alabama winter in a heated garage, given that however I do manage about 6K miles per year and always do two oil changes regardless of the miles. A change in November the beginning of cold weather here and June the start of hot weather. I try to drive it at least each month during storage and always try to make that a 20 +_ mile drive so it will have time to really warm up. During those winter drives I will get it up to the 6+K RPM range several times after it has completely warmed up......so far so good

Boxsters are pretty much a commodity cars these days so its reasonable to treat them just like any car when it comes to driving and maintaining them.

That said, if you enjoy keeping your Boxster in pristine condition then just know that most upgrades / maintenance repairs you'll make won't pay back at sale time.
