Are you guys serious with your maintenance costs?
I just paid P21K the other day for my 2016 Tucson GLS CRDi's 40K km PMS at Hyundai Sucat. And I supplied my own oil. Expensive items were the ATF (P4.9K), labor (P3.6K), fuel filter (P2.9K) and the "evaporator fins cleaning" (P2.2K).
Well, tbh, Hyundai Philippines' service costs are stupid. But I do what I can do maintain the warranty. In comparison, the maintenance cost for our diesel Kias (2014 Sorento and 2015 Soul) are quite a bit cheaper.
Anyway, I'm considering a Porsche Cayman S. How much am I looking at per year in maintenance costs? Will it be over P100K a year? And do you think it'll be reliable with just regular PMS? It'll be using it every other day. I'll be doing some spirited driving occasionally though. No track days for sure. I just want something fast, nimble and can be daily driven.

October 11th, 2019 07:55 PM #39I have no idea with the new 4cyl turbo but if it is the older NA flat-6 assuming you do not do over 10t kms a year. you are looking at 25-50k once a year service however every 4th year you have to undergo "heavy" maintenance then it will cost you at the very least approx 80k. additional pa any unforeseen repairs. also since everything is turbocharged now it is safe to assume you might be spending more pa.
in my experience with eurocars it is actually more economical and less prone to breaking stuff if you use them on a regular basis rather than let them sit for weeks at a time.

Thanks. This'll be my first Porsche. I prefer buying new, but I'm definitely open to buying a pre-owned very low mileage 981 Cayman S or GTS for the NA flat-6. I haven't really heard much about the new turbo engines on the 982 aside from they're faster.
If it's P50K a year for regular maintenance, I think it's very reasonable for a sports car, let alone a Porsche. Friends have been pushing me to get a Nissan GTR for the same amount of money, but I heard the maintenance is much more stringent (and far more expensive). Also drove it once and I find it way too heavy and large. Straight line performance doesn't equal more fun for me. I actually have the most fun driving my tiny Suzuki Swift, especially on the Ternate-Nasugbu road in Batangas going to Pico De Loro.
Anyone else got input? Or other car suggestions?
