I would say go for it! I had my previous cars tinted, and it made them look sportier. It also depends on the type of tint you get based on the color of your car. The charcoal tints look really good on a black car, while some of the reflective to semi-reflective look good on other colors. I live in VA, where we have stupid tint laws, can go as low as 35% in the front, 50% in the rear. It would be great if all windows could be 35%

As for price, it kinda depends on the type of tint you are buying. My two previous cars were sports coupes that had 5 windows. Premium tint ran me around $125. Seeing that the Boxster only has 3 windows, and the rear is much smaller, I'm sure it would be less pocket cost.

I'll be waiting until Feb-March when I change to a glass top before I tint my windows.
