I love my Boxster, but the engine has a design flaw, end of story. It's not because of hard usage, or because it's a "high performance" engine. . The specific output is not that high, a VTEC gets 10-12% more, and will do it for 200k miles.

I will feel better when I can afford a 2010, but worry doesn't detract from the fun I have with this otherwise fantastic car!
