Pushing car in Neutral

I often need to manually push my Boxster backward or forward in my garage to reach some stuff in storage. With the car in neutral and the hand brake fully disengaged (obviously ) i find I need to use quite alot of force...

My other car which is significantly heavier (BMW 5 series) is much easier to push around. To check further i removed the front and rear wheels of the P car and the rear rotors are quite hard to move by hand. The front ones are much easier.

As a comparison:

Front Rotors - I can move with one finger
Rear Rotors - I need to grip the whole rotor from both sides and exert some force.

Both rear/front rotors as well as brake pads are quite new.

What could be the problem?
