There is a reason Hyundai is one of the fastest growing car companies in the world. They stand behind their automobiles. I don't own one but find it interesting that they can build nice vehicles, at reasonable prices, and offer double to triple the mileage warranties than other manufacturers. They are quickly building a loyal customer base. Porsche is losing on this one in the eyes of the consumer. I refused to be one of their statistics and sold a beautiful, 2002 Boxster S, only 15,000 miles. It wasn't worth the risk in my opinion and I wasn't about to spend 2k extra to make a practically brand new car less likely to suffer a catastrophic failure by installing a ceramic bearing as that should have been Porsches responsibility. I sold it and will keep my eyes open for an 09 or newer. I have my peace of mind intact and there's a huge part of me that doesn't want to give Porsche any more of my money. They are fun cars but seem to lack the customer loyalty that I prefer. Good luck to all of you and hope your bearings stay intact.
