Jan Levinson – Porsche Boxster

Michael’s former boss and at the time (season 4, episode 4 “Money”) girlfriend, Jan Levinson, effectively bankrupts Michael to the point where needs a second job to pay for her lifestyle. It also seems that she sold his car and her car, previously a Volvo, to afford the Porsche.

Jan rolls in a Porsche Boxster and for 2007 (the episode was filmed that same year) it featured a base 245hp 2.7-liter flat-six engine or the optional 295p 3.4-liter flat-six power plant. Either way its a sharp car but Jan’s means of getting the car are a bit suspect and she definitely exploited Michael.

PS: Is it possible that Jan ever physically or mentally harmed Michael? It seems so in the “Dinner Party” episode and then Michael alludes to a safe word that she ignores in the season three episode, “Women’s Appreciation”.
