Thanks for posting. This is the most interesting video yet. I could just see the maintenance and repair costs going through the roof. As I watched this, my thoughts were-Couldn't the Porsche engineers have figured out a better way to get into the engine compartment?

I was envisioning the trunk lid of a regular old run-of-the-mill four door sedan.

Again, thanks for sharing.

Billy

Surely that won't meet today's crash or noise standards. On another note, since those air filters are tucked in so well, I imagine they rarely need to be changed.

A friend of mine is a Porsche Service Tech and he told me the 'book' gives them near 4 hours of labor for removal of the rear bumper...so any engine work save an oil change is going to be pricey. A design flaw in the 991 IMO.

No different than a Panamera, the front of the car comes off for service.
