    Had a Jetta VR6 and it was a POS too. Thought a near $80k BMW 550 would give me near Porsche performance in a Camry sized package. It did, just without the Toyota reliability. I guess at 3x the price 1/3 the reliability was too much to ask. I'd happily drive a BMW again but wouldn't buy one. I've heard good things about Porsche. Maybe one day...

    Yeah, they sent me a letter stating it may burst into flames while driving it but there was not currently a fix other than to move away from it. I'd already unloaded it at that point.

    Yea screw Porsche. I used to blow the doors off then on the weekends in my supercharged miata... and then drive it to work all week. They look cool but I wouldn't spend the money on one when you can get the same performance or better for much less money.

    I thought this was, what have I done to my Tacoma, who cares about your sports cars, I'm sure there's a forum for that type of CAR.

    Some really cool shit
    Right. Sure. You had to add a turbo to do what you did. My Boxster S was out the door fast. Fitment was perfect, and never had to take it to the shop. It looked beautiful, and had an amazing pedigree. I'd take a Porsche every day.

    I have had them for a few months, no issues with fogging. Check out their reviews, they’re literally just about all 5 stars. That’s what sold me, I figured if anyone had any issues at all it would be out there somewhere, but I found no complaints.
