Please correct me if I am wrong, but the history surrounding Porsche is of Race heritage. Porsche's were designed to see tracks or high speed highways on a regular basis. Many times, around town driving, or anemic driving does not allow the fluids to heat up to proper temperatures, thus causing damage to internal parts of the motor. When a vehicle sees tracks, higher speeds or harder loads it will burn off these impurities, thus causing less wear and tear on your parts. These vehicles will also see more fluid changes than cars that are parked in a garage and allowed to sit there looking pretty. That is why many Porsche owners will autocross or track their cars on a semi regular occurrences. The vehicles that are garage queens have a tendency to have more problems than the vehicles that are regularly driven.
