Save money by ordering the ZF part, which is literally the exact same as the Porsche part, for 1/4 of the price.

I'm just curious...

Why would you pay more than twice for a part that is manufactuired by the manufacturer that manufactured the part... for you car... and for Porsche. I mean... Porsche contracted with ZF to manufacturer the part for them, Porsche, then slapping the $30 "P" on the part.

I'm just curious...
