I drove my 2000S several winter in Québec without any trouble. Never had a difficulty to start. Great handling, good traction control, warm fast Inside. Porsche test these engine in really cold weather. They have winter driving school. They advertise winter equipment. They want us to use our car in snow and cold condition. Personnaly I dont think there is a difference using a porsche or a audi, bmw, Toyota or any other car in winter.

Most people just dont want to put there precious 80 000$ (new) value car in rough condition. For me, I have paid 80 000$ for my new 981 boxster, I will use it as much as I can for as long as I can. I dont mind the 5000$ difference in resale value in 8 years compare to the years of driving experience in every condition.

My opinion
For the block heater, never hear of one for boxster, never used one and had no problem.
