I don't think the concerns about the Boxster's long term issues is "whinning." I do think the Porsche company should simply fix them. Any world class car that has an engine that implodes for no apparent reason, well, I think they should do something about that.
If you think we are exaggerating, this is your perogative. Since no company is going to admit that they have these issues (save Toyota and Honda) we are never going to see hard data.
I never suggested the Soltice was a "better car" than the Boxster.
It does have a better warranty on the drivetrain and it costs maybe 20 grand less.
Clearly GM is OK about its warranty and Porsche about theirs.
Again, I love the Box and would not own one without a warranty. If that is whinning, well, I am a whinner.
I have been called much worse.
