And again, the point I keep making that you still haven't addressed, although you find it so satisfying to be smug about people mentioning other flaws in the auto world (and I already mentioned that yes indeed, Mazda owned up to their mistake), is that I don't know that the problems I'm seeing are isolated only to Porsche.
There is a general arrogance in the high-end sports car market that seems to say "you've bought a rarefied sports car! It has its quirks and you should have the money to deal with them." Can we really single out Porsche on this when Lambos, Ferraris, Maseratis, et cetera all are money sinks as well? Shouldn't we just take the whole industry to task?
Cars continue to evolve and become more complex pieces of machinery. Old world craftsmanship is absent from just about all industries these days--everything is trending towards a disposable mentality.
******************** all you want about Porsche, but to me it just sounds like you're scapegoating them for an industry-wide issue. Automotive quality is down all across the board, but it seems like the manufacturers have managed to reset most customers' expectations. Bummer, eh?
