Good question. As radbob in the first post mentioned, you have to remove a panel to even get to the oilpan. I had a 86 Porsche 944 Turbo that had a similar arrangement. A huge panel that had to be removed first. All in the name of aerodynamics. It was a very clean design but not very user friendly for the do-it-yourselfer. Heck, on the Porsche Boxter you can't even SEE the engine, all work is done from underneath.

That is a great price on the MIghty-vac. Mine is made by Tempo, very similar but I think the Might-vac is a little more versatile. I first got interested in the suction method of oil-changing with a boat I used to have. Impossible to even get to the drain plug on an inboard, so suction is the only way to go !!
