They all look like you need the wall socket to draw from. Basically all I want is to charge a battery pack in the apartment via wall socket then when it's charged you bring it down to the car and charge it from the battery pack.

3. 2010 boxsters I believe use a Wet battery.. So, i have no clue what charger would be okay for that. A lot i see are just lead/acid based.
#1: Yes.
#2:Forget finding an alternative to solar, you are slowly turning this into physics experiment for no apparent reason.
#3: Correct, you have a flooded cell lead acid battery, so just about any maintainer would do the job.

Here is one I found in about 10 seconds on Amazon.com for about $20:
