I don't know anything specific about readiness for the Cayman /Boxster.

The last time I took the 2001 Jetta for Inspection it failed the SAI. I had just repaired a vacuum leak and cleared codes, but i drove it a couple weeks before I took it in.

I followed the VW "reset" drive regimen 4 times before it reset all of the readiness flags.

If I was buying the car I would expect the dealer to be able to resolve that issue and to document how they did it. It sounds like "won't pass smog" wasn't part of the deal.

Does CA require that a car pass smog when a dealer sells it?
