For the close relationship that Porsche now has with Volkswagen/Audi, I'm surprised how low VW is. C'mon Piech, get to work! :roflmao:

I've always wondered how "initial quality" was figured. We bought an '09 Charger. Zero problems so far. I have a '07 Caravan, zero problems. So why is Chrysler rated so low?
It seems to me that the "initial" problems would be covered under warranty. Unless it's a dependability problem, why even mention it?
Rating a car after, say, five years would be more important to me.
Look how many older Porsches there are still being driven.
