Porsche can do better on the engine, no doubt in my mind.

Heh, don't even get me started on Japanese (Lexus, specifically) vs. German consumer-level product engineering and quality. I love my Boxster, but let's get real - German cars are known for doing a lot of things very well, but these days, quality is not one of their strong points. Lexus wins that race by a country mile. (I type this as I'm looking for another IS300... best car I've ever owned.)
Anywho, this is an interesting discussion. I'm looking forward to reading more.
