I have a CTEK but it's the Porsche branded (Tequipment) one. Also bought the CTEK rubber cover for it (protects the boxsters paint and the charger from scuffs).

The CTEK branded one has more features and is usually cheaper, but I found a Porsche branded one on ebay for a song and liked that it came wired up for use with a cigarette lighter outlet.

It works perfect and kept my battery in tip top shape last winter.

I should add that if you have a pre-2003 (I think) Boxster and want to use a cigarette lighter charger, you might want to do a cigarette lighter upgrade. Later models have a smaller diameter socket which fits the charger plug a lot better.
