if i could afford the upkeep of a porsche and a rotary id get it. The cars over 20 years old what do you expect to have wrong iwth it. Most of that stuff thats wrong seems to be due to old age.

Sad thing is, most of the cars for sale on TR are worse than this.. You just have to find out for yourself... If that guy was on TR i'd give him rep



edit, I loved this

The passenger side windshield wiper is bent, the result of a parking lot hoodlum.

the only reason people find it funny with this article is the fact that it is a porsche, and shit is outrageous to fix.
Ill bet you pick out any car, say an old camry or taurus and it will have the same problems.
