Don't forget that the boxster is the cheap Porsche, and it turns 7 grand. Yes, you could make a motor turn 7000 rpm and design all of the parts to last longer at that rpm, but it would cost a lot more then.

At least given the cost of Porsche, BMW, Merc etc you would expect it.

Drive your 2005 Ford Falcon like a boxster. Wind the motor up to redline several times a day, hammer the brakes, corner hard, and come back after 150,000 km in both cars and tell me how each has handled it.
