I am with you brother! I like to have the engagement point a little lower also. But it seems the normal engagement point is somewhere around 1/3 to 1/2 of the way up on most Boxsters. Seems to depend on what clutch is installed (stock or non-stock) and how many miles are on it.

There is no way to adjust the engagement point, so if you don't like the feel of a particular clutch then you may have to consider another Boxster.

You don't have to go all the way to the floor for each shift, just going past the engagement point is sufficient to allow for a smooth and easy shift. Once you buy the car, work on your heel-and-toe technique for equally smooth downshifts.
