OEM.
Sunset Imports or Suncoast Porsche should have the best prices.
The plugs are fine, it is the coils that crack and often take the plugs with them.

I think the factory plugs are good and made by Beru.
On the other hand if your not happy with the OEM plugs, as a suggestion I would try an NGK plug that can be used in substitution for the OEM spark plugs.
I never had a problem with NGK products period and run them in my Carrera.
When I did the coil and spark plug change on the Cayenne, 3 out of the 8 plugs were waaaay out of spec, they had a bigger gap. This is the third set of plugs in 20,000 miles.
I just bought the OEM Beru plugs just in case, if they go prematurely I will switch to the NGK's without thinking twice about it for the next time.

Ok so check this out I pulled out all the coils out and they all seem fine perfect shape no cracks but once I pulled out the spark plugs they were all dirty remember guys I just bought my truck and it has 95,000 miles on it my truck sputters and dies so I'm hoping its the plugs it could also be the fuel pump

Clearly the alpha is being kept in this country for historical reasons.
At some point, there will be no more left here and then what do we do when the phone rings and the Porsche Museum calls looking for one?

Curious about plug gap?
I just changed out my plugs with "Porsche" boxed plugs from the dealership.
Mine had 3 electrode arms around the center point.
Others in this thread spoke of setting the plug gap?
How is that possible?
Are there also "normal" single electrode plugs for these cars?
Mine is an 06 S version.
And before you ask, it was an easy swap until I dropped a socket extension into the depths of the passenger side.
Had to crawl under the beast, remove both plastic covers and find it resting on the suspension arm.
I know, many warned about dropping stuff but I was a clutz.
