Yes, and that takes away the option to make the concern go away preemptively. OTOH, the newer larger bearing on the 987.1 supposedly has a much lower failure rate. JPF, I'm new here on the Forum, and I suspect that this has been discussed ad nauseum, but would you be comfortable buying a 2006 -2008? I'm asking because I'm in the market for an S, no particular year, but probably prefer '03 - '04, or maybe '05.
