The Porsche Boxster engine problems (requiring brand new engine after relatively low miles) comes to mind for one example; a current edition of which starts at around $47K for the base or $57K for the "S". I consider Porsche to be one of the best manufacturers in the world but even they "aint perfect".
And Porsche replaced every one of those engines. No repairs they pulled the engine and replaced it. Engines were also 'good willed' for some of the out of warranty ones.

I've yet to see a Porsche that can't make 5 laps on a track. However, I have seen a 335i that can't make 5 either.

I will simply encourage everyone that encounters it to file a complaint with the NHTSA to push the issue into a government mandated recall, and sell our Z.
And that is something I plan to do as should everyone with an oil temp issue.<!-- / message --><!-- sig -->
