Porsche has a bifurcated product offering... their sports lineup is extremely reliable, but their SUVs and more mainstream products are certainly not (these also tend to have brand new equipment which doesn't filter to the 911 for years)

Flat boxer engines in the sportscars are their own design - if it is V6 in the SUV's then it is Audi/VW.

Porsche sports also spend a ton of time racing, at various levels, which I'd imagine back permeates into the corporate culture and increases reliability.

There's a lot of weaknesses that show up a lot quicker when you're holding an engine at redline.
