Dont get surprised about the cost of maintenance of Porsche ownership- Its part of the whole Porsche experience.
To each his own, I love Porsches and will continue to love driving them despite all other issues.
Jerry Seinfeld drives a Porsche regularly, and from time to time you'll read about him on the tabloids of having car troubles.
Ah, like someone who buys a Ferrari (knowing full well that he will soon become close and personal friends with a Ferrari mechanic). I'm sure it's not that bad. I willing to accept some degree of increased maintenance $$$.

Totally understand the concept. I currently have a 97 Del Sol VTEC that has had a total suspension upgrade, Vortech Supercharger, tweak this, tweaked that, and producing 240 whp. While it hasn't hit me in the pocket book on maintenance too bad, it does require a lot more attention than stock Honda.

Wonder how much? An articles or threads that hammer on this issue?

Thanks again guys. Feedback from actually users much better than the so-called experts.
