I don’t think you have any idea how much it costs to assemble even the basic tools you need for servicing these cars. A PIWIS will cost you about $30K for the first year, even the simple tool to get a thermostat out of the housing is $100. If I inventoried my shop equipment, particularly the unique stuff for dealing with Porsche’s, the bill would come to many tens of thousands. Without a way to actually make money, you are talking about spending a ton of cash; that is why even independent Porsche shops cost as much as they do…………….
