Scared to Death of these cars !

[woodsman]

I tell people that German cars age faster than Japanese ones. This is hard to accept for those of us who have owned the Japanese ones first. I can't stop wondering why my 300km Toyota beater is still using original parts that I've had to replace on my 140 km Boxster. I guess the engineers have a different mandate and for Porsche's it includes the lightest weight possible and durability is somewhere further down the list. To date the Japanese still can't build luxury like the Germans. As for Porsche, I still can't explain what their doing better than the other automakers but it's why I'm in one. A 10 minute test drive changed my life! An IS350, 350Z,G35 and a ZO6 didn't!
