fivepoints, The engine in the 944 was a PIA, I was specifically commenting on the click bang door closure, many Boxsters including mine seem to have an after rattle of the window after closure, not very Porsche like when contrasted against my brother's 911 or a 944 door. Even taking convertible rigidity into effect, close the door on an old 911 cabriolet and judge for yourself the effects of cost pressures. PS An engineering student could have predicted calamity with an IMS bearing in an engine designed to spin past 5000 rpm. Porsche was so asleep on this one they didn't even make the bearing servicable, just how many miles were they planning on for their throw away, get us back in the game car?
