Don't think the comparison holds. Dragging a object from the back your car, with associated wind resistance and having it move to and fro is not really the same set of physics as is involved in tugging your heavy friend around in the passenger seat.
Having said that, who knows for sure? I just don't see risking damage to my $55K sports car by dragging a trailer around.
Personal choice though!

Comparing that additional load to either carrying "larger" passengers, several large full suitcases or just making many quick starts, I don't think the additional wear on the car would be an issue.
Would Porsche raise an issue re: warranty if you drove in with the trailer attached and claimed early engine failure, etc...? Certainly. The hitch design shown above is completely removable so they will never need to know.  |
