That's not what we're talking about here, and you know it. Very few people would look at the 986 as a car worthy of making "perfect". There are some of you, and that's awesome. And y'all will spend your fortunes doing so. (Especially since you seem to have some disregard for DIY'ers)

But for most people, it's a fun used car. It needs maintenance and upkeep like any other used car.

$200/yr in oil changes. A coolant flush and brake job every couple of years. Ties every 3 years, depending on how you drive. A clutch every 10 years. These are the same expenses you'll have with ANY car, and we're not taking anywhere NEAR $2k/yr.
