I have owned a Porsche Turbo and getting the repirs done is no more expensive than a MB. My Jeep dealer is a huge ripoff joint. Parts are worse than the German cars.

I have driven a Boxtser and it has no guts. Just like a 968, a weak 4 cylinder that you need to keep around 6000RPM to make it feel like a car. My 911 Turbo was awesome and second to that in the guts department is my 6.9. When you hit the pedal, things happen.

All repairs will be expensive with quality work being done. Problem seems to be the newer cars have so many flimsy things break. MB has terrible quality control on the new cars. I assume Porsche is a bit the same way.

If I had a Boxster, I would put in the supercharger, its only about 5 grand. If I had to pick one to buy I would get the Ruf Boxster. big chunk of change but I imagine an incredible car.
