Not denying that it is a problem, but to go on a crusade about it, while understandable, is probably just consuming the person emotionally with little effect. I will say, though, that a CL ad like that is pretty darn effective regionally, and will probably get flagged too.

If it happens to me, I will be pissed/furious, yes. Perhaps it's just simply unacceptable for Porsche to produce this error and not handle it properly. I wasn't in that boat over the years (as a new owner.) Just saying that statistically, it seems that the failure rate doesn't indicate that all owners are going to be screwed if they buy a boxster. Especially a dual row version. A gamble, yes. More so than any car I've owned or considered owning, but not a guarantee. I don't know.. this topic is just too touchy. It sucks for you guys, and I'm sorry you've had to go through it. Really - it's f*cking expensive.

I guess the best we can hope for out of ads like this are to educate people so that they can use it as a negotiating point to get the retrofit, and get them on here to have a better ownership experience through support and general good times with the community.
