Jim is right, Porsche is producing less and less parts for their cars, especially the older ones. Expect to see NLA a lot more often in the parts catalog. Again, it's back to the issue at hand, these are not their primary buyers. Also, for the older cars I'd guess it probably costs more to produce and store many parts than they make on the sale, especially for lower volume stuff. Remember, Porsche exists to make money, and they're pretty damn good at it.

Kudos to Mazda for their support of racing, Zoom-Zoom is more than just a catchy slogan. It's the kind of support that Porsche should be giving, because their heritage and racing past is largely responsible for their success today.
