The real difference here as I see it is that Porsche refused to do anything about it but do an engine swap, and refused to provide any internal engine parts, tools, or even rudimentary failure rate data. Porsches' actions and non actions resulted in depreciation that has made the cost of entry into the used Porsche market to be possible to anyone. [/QUOTE]
I hear many say that our car problems is the reason why they have depreciated so much. Some of that is obviously true but have you priced ANY german car that is 6-10 years old? Take a look at the M3 from around 2003. There is one near me selling for 15K and that wasn't the cheapest one. 04 MB SL 500s are going for 20K. I like my car but I don't think they depreciated enough to reflect this problem if its really that bad.
I appreciate the solutions from the aftermarkets. Hats off to you guys.
