Here you can order the filter:

Here's how to replace the filter: http://www.realtime.net/%7Erentner/Blog/B600322026/C1958058114/E765092039/index.html

I guess I'll head over to Porsche and bend over. Any other places that might carry Boxster air filters?

Easier

Or, you could call a couple of car parts stores locally and find one. I got my last one at the local Advance Auto parts. They carried three different brands.

They had the correct air filter at Advance Auto in stock? Man those guys are good. I got an oil filter from them once for the boxster. It worked like a charm was just like the Mahle and OEM units.

If you like the oil impregnated type, K&N, you can order those also from Auto Zone for the same comparable price as an OEM paper filter.
