I am sort of in the market. I think that with many new cars they are so complex and expensive to fix that people are scared when they are out of warranty. The average DIY guy cant really do much to them and they are bargain shoppers so they dont appeal....there in a no mans land.
There is several threads on this in the 996 forum and the market place discussion where very learned and experienced folks chime in.

That's what I was thinking and exactly why I sold my 2000 Boxster S. My RMS had to be replaced at 20K miles, and at almost $3,000 a pop, that was enough for me  There was another problem where some engines would self destruct at any time ....( usually with less than 10K miles ) The 911 has the same issues.
