It's really a combination of several things:

- Parts in general are getting more and more difficult to find for old cars. The automakers don't make big money making replacements.

- Porsche is not nearly as massed-produced as other vehicles, and you loose economy-of-scale.

- Many of the Porsche parts are made to tighter tolerances and specs than "normal" cars, and therefore manufacturing costs are higher.
