That may be true, but they aren't built to be trouble free, and driving them hard routinely seems to be accelerating the advent of breakdowns.



They aren't built to be trouble free? Well, I guess you mean "sh.t happens".
My cars have always been driven hard and I never had a technical failure which could be connected directly to my driving style. I know that some 997 owners had trouble with their cars but the 997 is a new product (80-85 % new parts compared to the 996) and in the first year of production, sh.t happens. This is only natural and it is similar with all car manufacturers.

I drive my car(s) hard whenever I'm able to do that and I was never thinking of a possible technical breakdown. If it happens, it happens.
