Boxster clutches should not be stiff. Once they are worn or wearing out they get stiff. I've had two nd when the clutch does not need replacing they are easier than 944/968 with new clutches as well as older air cooled 911s. I drive mine 35 miles each way to work in downtownnatlanta with a lot of stop and go traffic. I can't drive 968 to work or my leg is worn out by the time I get there, even with a new clutch. Boxster has ~40k on the clutch and motor since replacement and its still easy. The original clutch had about the same mileage on it and it was still fine. My 97 got stiff around 80k miles and had to be replaced. im not saying tHey are as easy as a 4 cylinder beater, but for a sports car it's amazingly easy to drive in all conditions, IMHO anyway
