Random comment - I think he's a Kiwi. Has to be a good guy!!

The problem with lots of tech is that these cars will get devalued on the basis of the cost of replacement electronic parts - 10 years old and you're spending a couple of grand a time to swap out broken electronics because they don't repair and have to replace.

It'll start to make keeping these Porsche's cost prohibitive when they're 10 to 15 years old. But you get the feeling Porsche no longer make cars to last in the same way they did.
