Post Maintenance on various models?

I was hoping to hear from some of you that have expereince with n/a's, turbos, 928s, 968s, 911s, etc. I am curious to find out which are the most maintenance intensive both in time and $$$ and which are the least. Doing some research before I purchase my next toy.

Thanks

The guy that owns the shop where I have my car serviced owns serveral porsches (I only get dirty doing upgrades). He says the most reliable Porsche by far is the 944-series.

Even so, I find that spending $10k/year on these things is pretty simple to do...

Spending $10k is a very very high maintainance estimate...I think Danno is including the cost of semivoluntary "enhancment." Halgogen lamps and turbochargers need not be part of the routine...but...
