One of the reasons we bought a Porsche was the fact that it's made in small numbers so it's rare in most parts of the US to see one like yours very often.
I suppose sooner or later like most other Porsche models, someone will produce a kit that will allow us to install one of the millions of really "impressive" and cheap Chevy V6s.
In regards to your pricing above, that is not for a Corvette motor but rather for a 4 door Chevy costing $20,000.
So if a $20,000 car's motor costs $5,000, then a $60,000 car's motor should cost $15,000???
