I am down at the local dealer service dept maybe three times a week. Unfortunately, I get to see all of the 986 and 996s with their drivetrains out and being repaired/replaced.

I think this gives me a biased view of how well these drivetrains stand up to abuse.

I know the computers on these models record RPMS, overshifts etc. If there is evidence of abuse, the warranty is in jeopardy.

I guess I am risk adverse!

To each his own.
