I got a bit of a chuckle out of this.
 
A friend of mine just bought a 1986 951, choosing it over a 1982 924 for the following reason:

I figured it probably was less of a money pit that the 924 was. More common... less expensive... plus it just had a lot done on it.
Danger, steep learning curve ahead.

Very steep learning curve ahead.

In some respects 944/951 is easier - parts are easier to find

never heard any aspect of Porsche maintenance refered to as "cheap" though

I'd still take a 944 over an 924 any day.

Had two of them. Were fun to drive but the engine and injection system sucked big time.

FYI: The 931 (924 Turbo) is one of the most expensive Porsches to maintain, according to my mechanic. Granted, your friend is talking about a 924 n/a, but still, it was surprising for me to hear this.
