Porsche is on top...the nameplate received the fewest complaints of any manufacture from owners in 2010 according to JDPower. I've owned a 1973, 1983, and 1997 911. The '83SC was in the shop the most.

He's being sarcastic...hence the red text.

I didn't knickname my RDX "Paprika" because I was being sarcastic, I did it out of respect: It will never be a "Cayenne". Some things are too precious to joke about. I really miss the Porsche. Now that I have a house payment and another name on the checkbook, I will never have one again.

You would be surprised what gets sucked under the car. I've found coon hair on my shift linkage when it was out of adjustment.
