[QUOTE="SeanBoswell, post: 2317599, member: 806354"] I'm guessing you have the Tiptronic transmission, and from what I've heard, they're usually non-problematic(especially when new). with that being said, I'm guessing you probably have a lemon. your dealer is just saying whatever they can to weasel out of the deal, it's a fairly common practice. check out the Lemon Laws in your area, you more than likely qualify considering that it's a new car. I've never had to do this myself, so you'll have to do some research and find out what needs to be done. I have an old Integra that I thrash on a daily basis, it's 12 years old and I've never had issues like the ones you're having. Porsches are built to be driven, and the parts and engineering are supposed to support this. why else would it cost 75k? EDIT: ignore the first guy, he's a moron who doesn't understand the price difference and has never driven a Porsche in his entire life. ***EDIT: if you have the manual transmission, that's just further evidence of a manufacturer defect. unless, your driving style is a bit off-key. but either way, the brake issues and even the stupid cup-holder problem is a clear indication that you have a lemon. even if your driving style is a bit off-key(don't mean to insult you, just saying), Porsche parts are designed to take a bit of punishment as long as you go through routine maintenance.
