You can open the top via emergency opening / closing procedure.

You have to disconnect the 4 ball joints, 2 on each side. There is a lever tool in your tool kit for doing this. Instructions are in your owners manual.

Over the years I have had several Porsches and BMWs and really enjoy my 2000 Boxster S the most of all of them! The power and handling/balance of the car plus the easy top down driving are terrific. I bought the car from a guy who had partial maintenance records. Overall I have had minimal issues with the car. I did have the IMS bearing replaced as preventative maintenance using the Alan ceramic bearing. Expensive but restored peace of mind!
