What is your ride?

the engine gave up last yar. dinala ko sa dealer, internal problem daw. luckily covered pa ng insurance kaya pinalitan ng brand new engine.

OT: How many miles does it have on it? mmm... does that mean porsch isn't a reliable car per say? (no harsh reactions ok?)

airshaq: no car domain. stock pa rin yung boxster ko. actually, the engine gave up last yar. dinala ko sa dealer, internal problem daw. luckily covered pa ng insurance kaya pinalitan ng brand new engine.
kung wala akong insurance, it'll cost me bet $8-$10 thou..ouch!

Thats what im thinking....kakatakot...hehehhe

I mean..imagine mo na lang sa mga lower brands - i cha charge ka ng stealer ng mahal sa kahit anong service na ginawa nila...imagine kung higher end yan....Lucky you covered ng insurance yung engine mo - i never insured any of my engines before, and siguro kung sakin nangyari yan..patay...baka until ma paid off yung sasakyan eh nakagarahe yan - LOL....

I can't comment on that..but since naka 4 na kong German.... never had any of that kind of problem....but i would say....minsan...tatamaan ka talaga ng lemon....yung S class ng boss ko, 4 times na bumalik sa dealership and he's suing Mercedez....pero...majority pa rin ng Mercedez are of high quality....

IMO..porsche is for the purist...and not for someone who is in a tight budget....people who values driving it than the cost of ownership....else, kung cost ang concern mo, i'd say, stick with a jap brand.

airshaq: buti diyan may lemon law, dito wala pa ... sana mapasa na yung bill

ILD: yeah..but keep in mind, lemon law is only applicable to new cars. Pag bumili ka ng used, kahit 1,000 times pa nasira yung same part na yun, you wont be covered by the law.

47T miles. it's a 6 yr old car na. the first 3 yrs puro long drive ko sya.
well, kahit naman anong car siguro pag inabot ka ng malas....anyway, dun sa boxster board na pinupuntahan ko, yung RMS (rear main seal) leak ang laging reklamo ng mga owners. bakit daw hindi magamot ng porsche yung sakit na yun sa boxster.

I agree...lahat ng sasakyan, from every manufacturer and every model..may weak link...Sometimes, pag swerte mo yung nabili mo, it will last a long time..
